"Saturday Night Live" hosts are strong contenders here.
From June 13 to 24, 2024, voting took place for The 76th Primetime Emmy Awards. As such, it's fun to look at which actors and shows have the best chances of actually being nominated this year. So, these are my predictions for which performers will be nominated for Guest Actress in a Comedy Series.
Performers most likely to be nominated:
Jamie Lee Curtis for FX's The Bear
Olivia Colman for FX's The Bear
Sarah Paulson for FX's The Bear
Maya Rudolph for NBC's Saturday Night Live
Kate McKinnon for NBC's Saturday Night Live
J. Smith-Cameron for Max's Hacks
Serious threats that could break through:
Kristen Wiig, Emma Stone, Ayo Edebiri, Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney and Dua Lipa for NBC's Saturday Night Live
Jane Adams, Kaitlin Olson, Helen Hunt and Christina Hendricks for Max's Hacks
Da'Vine Joy Randolph, Jane Lynch, Tina Fey, Andrea Martin, Jackie Hoffman and Jayne Houdyshell for Hulu's Only Murders in the Building
