Okay, so I decided not to give a Most Likely Upsetter prediction for the television categories. Hey what can I say? I’m better at predicting the movie awards. Plus with a lot of categories appearing radically different from last year, it makes it all the much harder. So here are my TV predictions for the winners:
TELEVISION:
Best TV Movie or Miniseries: American Horror Story Hotel
Best TV Series, Drama: Game of Thrones
Best TV Series, Comedy: Veep
Best Actor in a TV Series, Drama: Jon Hamm, Mad Men
Best Actor, TV Series Comedy: Jeffrey Tambor, Transparent
Best Actress in a TV Series, Drama: Viola Davis, How To Get Away With Murder
Best Actress in a TV Series, Comedy: Gina Rodriguez, Jane The Virgin
Best Actor in a Miniseries or TV Movie: Mark Rylance, Wolf Hall
Best Actress in a Miniseries or TV Movie: Queen Latifah, Bessie
Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Mini-Series or TV Movie: Damian Lewis, Wolf Hall
Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries, or TV Movie: Regina King, American Crime
And there you go. Those are my predictions for Sunday’s Golden Globe Awards. I don’t think I’ll completely be in sync with the Hollywood Foreign Press but anyways tune in to see the winners and the show.
