Will Win - Alexis Bledel "The Handmaid's Tale"
Could Win - Laverne Cox "Orange is the New Black" or Ann Dowd "The Leftovers"
Should Win - Alison Wright "The Americans" or Alexis Bledel "The Handmaid's Tale"
Commentary - This is a tight three-way race. Laverne Cox's return to Orange is the New Black made for great television, but have voters moved on from that show? That's my bet, even though she and Uzo made it back in this year after missing out in previous seasons. Ann Dowd would be an interesting pick. She is a veteran actor, well-liked in this industry and managed to score two nominations this year. This would be a great place to reward her, because that Supporting Actress race is too stacked. But I think that Alexis Bledel is going to win her first Emmy. She had a great year with this role and the return of Gilmore Girls. Her performance on the show was haunting, and she is now a veteran television actress with a ton of great roles under her belt. I think all of that adds up to Emmy gold.
