Who do you think should win? Who do you think will win?
Who do you think go snubbed?

Not a fan of awards shows in general. I do find it interesting that made-for-cable and direct-to-streaming shows together now dominate the major categories. The over-the-air networks are really going to have to step up their game or they will be completely shutout before too long.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

I can't predict the winners. It's a popularity contest with the TV and Hollywood world.
I really enjoyed Westworld. I like Better Call Saul, though not quite as good as Breaking Bad.
They keep turning me down for being an extra in Atlanta. I think it's my costume. You know, a Pope hat, shirtless with football pads, a speedo, a red cape, masquerade mask, and cowboy boots.
Anthony Hopkins was outstanding in Westworld, as he always is, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him win. But I especially would like to see Jeffrey Wright win for playing Bernard in Westworld. I thought he was great. Evan Rachel Wood was great in that too.
I am addicted to The Fargo series, so would like to see that get some love. Ewan McGeregor played twin brothers, so that's a twist that usually plays big in these award shows.
And Last Week with John Oliver.
I would've liked to seen more nominations for Ray Donovan.
I have to apologize as I haven't seen more than 2 episodes ever of House of Cards. Those looked great but I just haven't had time to expand my viewing but certainly plan to go back and catch that series sometime.

Aside from Christian Bale in "The Machinist", its the biggest actual natural physical transformation I've ever seen in a movie or TV show.
House of Cards is probably one of the most overrated shows on TV (After Homeland.)

"The Machinist" was a phenomenal piece of acting. It reminded me a little of De Niro in "Raging Bull", where he gained 70 lbs for the role.
I watched the first episode of "House of Cards" and it didn't grab me. And I'm a Kevin Spacey fan (massive tip of the hat to him helping save London's "The Old Vic"). I must revisit it at some stage, as people still rave about it. Perhaps I'm a little over politics right now anyway, which is swaying my judgement.
I looked through the list of nominees. I really rate Charlie Brooker's writing and insight. His "Black Mirror" series was superb. A frighteningly stark interpretation of where our society and social media in particular, are heading.
