2024 Emmy Predictions: Best Limited Series, and Best Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor, and Supporting Actress in a Limited Series/Movie

Best Limited Series
Will Win - Baby Reindeer
Could Win - True Detective: Night Country, Fargo, or Ripley
Should Win - Baby Reindeer or True Detective: Night Country
Commentary - Baby Reindeer will win this in a walk, but True Detective, Fargo, and Ripley are worthy winners if voters throw us a surprise. 

Best Actor in a Limited Series/Movie
Will Win - Richard Gadd "Baby Reindeer"
Could Win - Andrew Scott "Ripley"
Should Win - Andrew Scott "Ripley"
Commentary -  I think Scott's work in Ripley is fantastic, but this is Gadd's to lose as Baby Reindeer is set to have a dominate night on Sunday. Plus, Gadd is great too, there really is not a bad winner among the bunch.

Best Actress in a Limited Series/Movie
Will Win - Jodie Foster "True Detective: Night Country"
Could Win - Brie Larson "Lessons in Chemistry" or Juno Temple "Fargo"
Should Win -Foster or Temple
Commentary - My two favorite of the bunch are Jodie Foster and Juno Temple, and I think that the power of Jodie Foster will win the day. But watch out for Brie Larson. She is great in Lessons in Chemistry, did well on the winter circuit, and could easily surprise.

Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series/Movie
Will Win - Tom Goodman-Hill "Baby Reindeer" 
Could Win - Robert Downey Jr. "The Sympathizer" or Jonathan Bailey "Fellow Travelers"
Should Win - Jonathan Bailey "Fellow Travelers"
Commentary - Downey is fresh off of an Oscar win, but that series was non-existent in other categories. Bailey is the best of the bunch, and is a hot commodity right now. But I feel a sweep coming, and I think Goodman-Hill is going to surprise.

Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series/Movie
Will Win - Jessica Gunning "Baby Reindeer"
Could Win - Kali Reis "True Detective: Night Country", Aja Naomi King "Lessons in Chemistry"
Should Win - Jessica Gunning "Baby Reindeer"
Commentary - Gunning is the star of Baby Reindeer, and while Supporting Actor might be a toss up, this one feels locked up. If voters decide to spice things up, Reis and King are the natural runners up.
