Parade's End is not a DA situation it is only a five episode miniseries so not eligible for the drama races.

Thanks for the clarification - couldn't remember who was airing it there. But thought they'd go the miniseries route.

Speaking of the movie/mini category, is Behind The Candelabra going to air within the eligibility period for this season?

9. Dexter
10. The Americans
11. House Of Cards
12. Parenthood

Wild card: The Newsroom. It's either being nominated for everything or nothing. I'm leaning toward the latter, obviously, but would not be surprised by the former.

The Top 6 ranking at this point is probably arbitrary (I have a hard time seeing anything breaking into that line-up), but any particular reason for Game of Thrones being the most vulnerable? I know Boardwalk had a well-received season and is in theory more up the Emmys' alley, but Thrones is a much bigger hit (which I could see growing even more this season) and I know the material it's adapting this season is suppose to be very rich.

It airs in May. They have three contenders this year. Parade's End (February 24th), Phil Spector (March 24th) and Behind the Candelabra (May 2013). Also maybe they might have Martha & Martha with Swank and Blethyn.

Does American Horror Story still get to submit in Miniseries?

**dlong5665** · 02-03-2013, 01:17 PM

I think the rule is if the main story and characters change every season then it's eligible and they'll submit it there. I could be wrong.

**Jali** · 02-03-2013, 01:41 PM

It's a shame that this year miniseries won't have supporting nominees. American horror story have a lot of great performances that could have been nominated.

**Rage Colored Glasses** · 02-03-2013, 01:45 PM

I think that, sight unseen, Behind The Candelabra will win Movie/Miniseries.

**dyedred19** · 02-03-2013, 01:47 PM

Michael Douglas already seems like a great bet.

**Rage Colored Glasses** · 02-03-2013, 02:03 PM

Yup, I think it's safe to say at this point that the race for Movie/Mini Actor will come down to Douglas vs. Pacino.

**Souler** · 02-03-2013, 02:16 PM

lmao. Could Al Pacino playing Phil Spector be the hammiest performance ever put on celluloid? I have high hopes!

God, don't. . .oh, it's ALL over the carpet now. Gross.

**dyedred19** · 02-03-2013, 02:32 PM

I mean...

Simply that it hasn't aired yet of my "second tier." It's why Mad Men is last in the top tier, too. We have to accept that this season could be complete dog shit.

Apparently, House of Cards is eligible. And probably Arrested Development too.

**Eduardo Zuckerberg** · 02-04-2013, 05:53 PM

Supporting Actress Comedy is pretty barren this year. After the MF ladies and Bialik, who's left?

Weaver scoring another nod? Krokowski returning?

I guess Jessica Walter could factor if AD is eligible.

How sad is this when Supporting Actor is overflowing with contenders. MF guys + New Girl guys + Parks and Rec guys + Hader (Killam?)

Speaking of SNL, I wish Kate McKinnon could break through. She certainly has a great tape (Daniel Craig) but her buzz is probably non-existent.

**HoneyDarling** · 02-04-2013, 05:56 PM

I hope the girls from "Girls" can grab some nods!

Whenever I picture Greg, he's doing this.

**Rage Colored Glasses** · 02-04-2013, 05:57 PM

I'm starting to hear talk build about McKinnon being Emmy-worthy. That category is so weak that it wouldn't surprise me if she got in, but she'll probably need a couple of years to establish herself first.

**dyedred19** · 02-04-2013, 10:27 PM

I love McKinnon, but I feel like she's barely been around lately.

I really hope Krakowski gets in. And Zosia Mamet.

**with_one_voice** · 02-04-2013, 10:42 PM

How do the Girls girls rank on the list of most likely to be recognized by the Emmys? I don't really know how to gauge it.
