“Shrinking” takes the two top spots, with Michael Urie and some up-and-comer named Harrison Ford, who has the largest lead in Round 1 — enough to complete the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs.But that’s not enough for Matt Roush: “As ‘Shrinking’ hits its stride, I’m hoping Ted McGinley (whose character got a health scare) finally makes the cut.”The field is rife with name contenders, including seven-time winner Bryan Cranston and previous winners Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Paul W.Downs (for writing and showrunning), and Nick Offerman.Offerman’s win as guest actor in a drama for his famed “The Last of Us” episode isn’t enough for Glenn Whipp: “I still can’t believe Nick Offerman never picked up an Emmy nomination for playing breakfast-loving libertarian Ron Swanson on ‘Parks and Recreation’ … Do right by him, voters!”Kristen Baldwin is pulling for a couple of “diminutive Brits”: Oscar winner Ben Kingsley and former “wiz” kid Daniel Radcliffe, who “delivers a wonderfully self-deprecating performance as a down-on-his-luck documentary director in ‘Reggie Dinkins.’ ”Of Kingsley, Tracy Brown writes, “Emmys tend to overlook Marvel actors … The evolution of Trevor Slattery since his ‘Iron Man 3’ debut deserves its own award.”More predictions: comedy series | comedy actor | comedy actress | comedy supp.
