All information is thanks to the forums at Goldderby , who are the first to track down these picks year after year. Who chose well: It's always tricky for serialized shows to navigate this system, because the voters in these categories are sent just one of three possible tapes that contain two episodes out of the six submitted.
But Breaking Bad finally broke through as a winner last year, and it stands a very good chance of repeating because it's used the live-wire nature of its final season to its advantage.
It submitted the last six episodes of the entire series, and each tape will contain two episodes that build off of and into each other. Plus, it's hard to stop watching this last run of episodes, so these tapes may send viewers scurrying to their Netflix accounts.
Who chose poorly: At one time, there was a sense that House of Cards could win here, thanks to the novelty of its distribution method, but the six episodes submitted are mostly bizarre choices. Yes, there's the season premiere, with its jaw-dropping twist, and the fourth episode, which provides a great showcase for Robin Wright. You can even make a case for the overstuffed season finale. But the other three episodes chosen are strictly run of the mill. In particular, it's hard to see why the season's second and third episodes, weaker installments of an already middling season, were chosen.
Who chose well: This category is a huge battle this year, with four shows that have genuine shots at winning. But of the four, Orange Is the New Black did the best job of choosing six episodes that will work both to convey the show's epic sweep while also standing alone as interesting episodes of television. If there's a concern here, it's that the episodes which include such events as the protagonist being placed in solitary and a shockingly bloody finale will perhaps make voters wonder why the show wasn't submitted in the drama category.
But, then, many viewers at home will be wondering that, too. Who chose poorly: This really could have been Louie 's year, what with the general chaos in the category and a growing sense that there's nothing else on TV quite like it. Even with the controversy of some of the season's episodes and elements, it still had six episodes that stood alone and felt unique.
Instead, the show wasted one tape on the bland two-part season finale, then gave over half of another to the end of the "Elevator" saga, which ran for six episodes.
No other installments are included. And the final tape features a story from Louie's youth that was powerful television but also basically a dramatic episode. Who chose well: Bryan Cranston still knows how to choose an episode. Emmy voters don't like to back outright villains, which may hinder his chances this year, but he's definitely given it his best shot.
Who chose poorly: Matthew McConaughey is probably going to win, because his work was so riveting, but choosing True Detective 's wildly criticized finale seems like a misstep. Yeah, "Time is a flat circle" was overhyped, but not making that episode his Emmy submission is like Bruce Springsteen refusing to play "Born to Run. Had Louis-Dreyfus or Schilling screwed up their submissions they didn't , she'd have an outside shot.
Did you know Melissa McCarthy is nominated for it? That said, I miss the people. But it came to the right close and I thought the finale was as close to perfect as you can get. It should go into production sometime next year for airing late or early , most likely just as the Presidential primaries are getting underway.
Cranston held off doing a play until he knew Breaking Bad was actually coming to an end. He put the word out to his agents and they found this one almost immediately.
Cranston said Spielberg was involved even before it hit the boards. I need you to be in it. But before bringing LBJ to life again for HBO, Cranston is about to start work on yet another historical figure, blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo in an indie film version of Trumbo.
Right now it seems Bryan Cranston can be in just about anything he wants. He has Walter White to thank for that. In early , Cranston served as executive producer and star of an exclusive online series called The Handlers for Atom. The comedic short series followed Cranston as the character Jack Powers and his race to win a seat on the State Senate. Cranston also produced an instructional DVD called KidSmartz, which is designed to educate families on how to stay safe from child abduction and Internet predators.
