Emmy Nominations: Which Drama Series Deserves an Award?

Originally posted 09/16/2011 02:30PM

The Emmy Awards are almost here, and now it's time to tell us which show deserves to win outstanding drama series.

The nominees are a varied bunch:

There's fan-favorite football drama Friday Night Lights, which follows the stories unfolding inside a small Texas community; and last year's winner, the '60s advertising saga Mad Men, which stars January Jones as sullen housewife Betty Draper.

Then there's Dexter, the story of America's favorite serial killer; Boardwalk Empire about the life of Nucky Thompson, politician and gangster in Prohibition-era Atlantic City.

The Good Wife, which stars outstanding actress nominee Julianna Margulies, follows one woman's career and love life in the wake of her politician husband's high-profile sex scandal.

And Game of Thrones, HBO's well-received fantasy drama based on the best-selling book series A Song of Fire and Ice, features a cast of feuding characters, including exiled princess Daenerys Targaryen played by Emilia Clarke.

It's going to be a tough race when the 63rd annual Primetime Emmy Awards air live from Los Angeles's Nokia Theatre on Fox Sept. 18.

Don't call Julianna Margulies a good wife.

The actress, who plays long-suffering political wife Alicia Florrick on CBS's The Good Wife, says she finds depicting the staid character a stretch.

"It's a challenge because she's so far from who I am," Margulies, 44, says in the January issue of Harper's Bazaar, on sale Dec. 21. "I'm not saying I'm a crazy sexual person, but she's such a repressed Wasp."

Still, through her Emmy-nominated role on the CBS drama, Margulies has become a de facto expert on infidelity – and has had to imagine what it would be like to be cheated on, or even to be unfaithful herself.
