For seven years in a row, Jon Stewart has dominated the Emmy for Variety, Music or Comedy Series. This year, his competition includes Conan O’Brien for his short-lived run on The Tonight Show. Dantzler Smith gives the odds on this category as part of our “Road to the Emmys” series.
Our “Road to the Emmys” series continues with Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or TV Movie, and Michael Gambon could win for “Emma.”
After the Emmy nominations were revealed, there were some noticeable snubs. Dantzler Smith offers his own list of “Indie Emmys” with shows that might appeal to hipsters. These include comedies like “Party Down” and “Community” and dramas like “Treme” and “Sons of Anarchy.”

Hugh Lawrie gets all of the attention on “House M.D.” and much of it is deserved. But Dantzler Smith says that voters should take notice of Lisa Edelstein’s portrayal of Dr. Lisa Cuddy, which has been phenomenal and should earn her an Emmy nomination for Supporting Actress in a Drama.
Dantzler Smith looks at Emmy favorites and underdogs. Favorites include recent winners like Damages’ Glenn Close, 30 Rock’s Alec Baldwin, and Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston. Underdogs are Parks and Recreations’ Aubrey Plaza, House’s Lisa Edelstein, and Dexter’s Michael C. Hall.
The Emmy nominees will be revealed on July 8, but Andrew Payne has a comprehensive preview, offering his dream Emmy ballot for who should be nominated.
The “Lost” finale has aired and after great deliberation, Kit Bowen is more than satisfied with how the show ended. Bowen reflects on her years watching “Lost” and notes that the series should be considered for several Emmys this year, including actors Michael Emerson and Terry O’Quinn.
