Emmy Podcast #27: Winner predictions in the Drama categories
With all of the episodes submissions in for Drama Series and individual performers, the first Emmy winner prediction podcast is here, tackling the guest, supporting and lead acting acting categories as well as the big one itself.
I am joined once again by Amanda Spears, who correctly predicted the path for Game of Thrones to earn its historic and record-breaking 32 Emmy nominations this season. While it’s kind of a forgone conclusion that the incest and dragons page-turner will triumph in Drama Series, there’s a lot of room for spoilers, upsets and surprises in the acting categories.
Can Peter Dinklage make history and win his fourth? Will Pose‘s Billy Porter be the first out, queer, black man to win Lead Actor in a Drama Series? Will Lead Actress go to Killing Eve‘s Jodie Comer or Sandra Oh? Or is Emilia Clarke going to fly in destroy their chances? All these questions and more get answered.
With music, this podcast runs 1h 16m 38s with music.
Opening: Into to FX’s Pose
Closing” “Home,” sung by Mj Rodriguez, Billy Porter and featuring Our Lady J from FX’s Pose
