Final Emmy Predictions: Drama Series and Acting Categories

By: Chris James, Abe Friedtanzer, Cláudio Alves, and Nathaniel Rogers

Can Succession win a second Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series this year?

The Drama field at the Emmys is ripe for change. With most of last year's big contenders out of the running due to timing (The Handmaid's Tale and The Crown did not air new episodes this year) or shows ending (Lovecraft Country, Pose), there is plenty of room for newbies. The main question is, will past Emmy juggernauts, like Succession and Better Call Saul, return in full force or will new shows, like Squid Game and Severance, fill the void.? Over the next couple of days, Team Experience will also be providing predictions for the comedy and limited series categories as well. Nominations for the 74th annual Emmy Awards will be announced at 8:30am on Tuesday, July 12th by Melissa Fumero and JB Smoove.

Find out who Team Experience predicts will be nominated for the Drama categories after the jump...
