Predicting the Emmys: Supporting Actress in a Drama

For the next two weeks, I will be giving my predictions for the 2007 Emmy Awards. Who was overlooked? Who should win? And who's gonna win?

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A ADRAMA
Lorraine Bracco, The Sopranos
Rachel Griffiths, Brothers & Sisters
Katherine Heigl, Grey's Anatomy
Sandra Oh, Grey's Anatomy
Aida Turturro, The Sopranos
Chandra Wilson, Grey's Anatomy

Overlooked:
Kelly Bishop, Gilmore Girls
Minka Kelly, Friday Night Lights
Elizabeth Mitchell, Lost
Adrianne Palicki, Friday Night Lights
CCH Pounder, The Shield
Callie Thorne, Rescue Me
Kate Walsh, Grey's Anatomy

Should Win: Rachel Griffiths

Will Win: Rachel Griffiths

This category is dominated by the ladies of The Sopranos and Grey's Anatomy, but it may be the Brothers & Sisters actress who ends up taking home the prize. Despite years of stellar work, and several nominations between them, neither Bracco or Turturro has ever taken home the prize. Neither actress stole the show on the last season of the great HBO drama, though, so this year might see both leaving the ceremony empty handed. Heigl, Oh, and Wilson each had moments to shine throughout the season, but they may end up canceling each other out, paving the way for the very deserving Griffiths (who never won for her stellar work on Six Feet Under) to pick up her first Emmy award.
