The 2014 Emmy Nominations are right around the corner (July 10th to be exact) and lawd are we in for an interesting Emmy race this year. Anyone who knows me knows that I’ve watched a ton of TV (25 shows to be exact) but when it came time to do these predictions, stuff started getting dicey. 1 cause there are so many categories and 2) the Emmys can either be really bland nomination wise or go crazy. For the moment, it appears that the nominations will look glitzy from the outside, but looking deeper into some of these categories its not that great (Supporting Actor in a Drama is particularly depressing unless they go outside of the norm). So without further ado, here are my picks for the Emmy nominations.
