Best Performance by an Actress In A Television Series - Musical Or Comedy
Marcia Cross – Desperate Housewives
Teri Hatcher – Desperate Housewives
Felicity Huffman – Desperate Housewives
Eva Longoria – Desperate Housewives
Mary-Louise Parker – Weeds
With desperate housewives in a critic agreed upon sophmore slump its suprising to see them garnering 4 nominations. However Felicity Huffman has stepped out of the shadows and proven she can step it up and even outshine her fellow housewives, with an emmy under her belt she seems to be a lock.
Best Television Series - Musical Or Comedy
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Desperate Housewives
Entourage
Everybody Hates Chris
My Name Is Earl
Weeds
Comedy categories are notoriously hard to predict especially with The Golden Globes whose winners and nominees tend to be more eccentric or unusual choices. That said my guess would be My name is Earl thanks to its excellent first year and before mentioned success of bringing back the sitcom.
Best Performance by an Actor In A Television Series - Drama
Patrick Dempsey – Grey's Anatomy
Matthew Fox – Lost
Hugh Laurie – House
Wentworth Miller – Prison Break
Kiefer Sutherland – 24
Matthew Fox hands down deserves this award. Simply put no one else handles a show and its content like he does. That said it waits to be seen if the foreign press are willing to jump on the Lost bandwagon. If not look to Hugh Laurie whose House has become a household success thanks to his acerbic performance to be getting his mantle ready.
Best Performance by an Actress In A Television Series - Drama
Patricia Arquette – Medium
Glenn Close – The Shield
Geena Davis – Commander In Chief
Kyra Sedgwick – The Closer
Polly Walker – Rome
Patricia Arquette's shocking win at the Emmys has made her a contender in this race and she could win. However I think Kyra Sedwick's often overlooked but brilliant performance in the Closer cant' be denied and she could pull off a suprising win. the foreign press are more willing to give awards to good work not necessarily the more popular work so she's my choice for this years Best Actress in a TV series.

As said before I am A HUGE Lost fan, and it truly does deserve the Best Tv Series award (and the Emmy's agree with me) a brilliant ensemble work that has spawned dozens of copy cats and survived its sophmore season even improving on it and proving that audiences don't mind and ENJOY intelligent shows. If anything else wins it will be a serious upset and cause many a people to be VERY angry.
