Emmy Top Ten Lists: Best Actor in a Drama Series

1. Bryan Cranston "Breaking Bad"
2. Michael C. Hall "Dexter"
3. Jon Hamm "Mad Men"
4. Hugh Laurie "House"
5. Kiefer Sutherland "24"
6. Simon Baker "The Mentalist"
7. Matthew Fox "Lost"
8. Bill Paxton "Big Love"
9. Denis Leary "Rescue Me"
10. Peter Krause "Parenthood"

Commentary: Unlike some of the other categories, there aren't many fresh faces to look for in this category. Peter Krause is great in Parenthood, but will most likely have to wait his turn. Denis Leary, Simon Baker, and Matthew Fox all have a shot, but I have no reason to think that the big six won't make the cut. Simon Baker, Jon Hamm, Hugh Laurie, and Bryan Cranston are all top contenders. Keifer Sutherland has only one more shot to win the prize. Michael C. Hall will have to beat out Bryan Cranston, but this particular season of Dexter was fantastic, and may get him the trophy.
