Best Drama Series

futurehours: Oh, I was so dumb for doubting “Squid Game.”

kat_ebbs: “The Day of the Jackal” and Eddie Redmayne need to be taken seriously.

Best Drama Actress

wolfali: I knew “House of the Dragon” was going to sneak a nod somewhere but wasn’t brave enough to predict it!

Best Drama Actor

futurehours: Billy Bob Thornton? Girl ok.

wolfali: This lineup is even more mediocre than the one at the Emmys.

braydenfitzsimmons: Between Ewan McGregor and Billy Bob Thornton, I am never underestimating a famous 90s actor in a Paramount+ series again.

Best Comedy Series

kat_ebbs: I think “Nobody Wants This” is making it to the Emmys in at least some capacity.

Binx: So “Shrinking” missed? But Jason Segel and Harrison Ford got in?

Incarille: No “English Teacher” is very sad.

Victor: NOT “THE GENTLEMEN,” BYE. Where are the Globes that gave “Transparent” and “Mozart in the Jungle” multiple wins? WHERE? WHERE?

Best Comedy Actress

Incarille: Mother Kathryn Hahn did it, omg.

wolfali: Kristen Wiig was robbed!

Best Comedy Actor

Onion: Brian Jordan Alvarez was so robbed but I’m happy for Adam Brody and Ted Danson. I hope one of them takes it.

amelie: Happy for Steve Martin and Martin Short as always!

Best Limited/Movie Actress

Victor: The Globes lowkey deserve a wake up call for how they keep nominating Kate Winslet for mediocre performances and therefore enabling her annoying thirst for prizes.

Best Limited/Movie Actor

Binx: Any time Andrew Scott gets nominated is a good day. And never bet against Ewan McGregor in a miniseries.

methaddiction: The superior “Monsters” actor got nominated.

Best Supporting Actress

braydenfitzsimmons: Allison Janney making it in for a guest role. Wow.

ejaru1810: Queen Janney back in awards season!!!

Best Supporting Actor

Victor: These are beyond boring, I’m sorry. Lazier than ever.
