The State of the Race
Apologies, but there is not much to say here. Michael Keaton is more than likely winning his first Emmy in September. While “The White Lotus” is the limited series that received the most Emmy nominations this year, it did not submit any of its actors as leads, which cleared the way for “Dopesick,” the second most nominated limited series, to win here. And Keaton is completely deserving, with his turn as the conflicted Dr. Samuel Finnix being the heart of the affecting drama tackling opioid addiction. The only other Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie nominee here that is from a project also nominated for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series is Sebastian Stan for “Pam & Tommy,” but he is playing too antagonistic a role to win over a majority of voters. Stan’s committed portrayal of Tommy Lee is appreciated though. As for the rest of the nominees’ chances, Oscar Isaac is sure to get some votes off the strength of the year he’s had, also starring in big budget projects like “Dune” and “Moon Knight” during the season. Unfortunately not enough people actually watched “Scenes From a Marriage” for him to gain the edge over the two aforementioned actors. Himesh Patel absolutely has his fans, especially on the TV critic side of things, but “Station Eleven” also suffers from a lack of viewership. And while “The Staircase” and “Under The Banner of Heaven” did seem to capture the attention of a wide audience this summer, they both seem to have premiered too late into the eligibility period to really capture Emmy voters, so Colin Firth and Andrew Garfield have a small chance of receiving an Emmy for their respective true crime-inspired series.
