It’s a tie atop this category, with Sarah Pidgeon and Carey Mulligan sharing the spotlight. And not far behind is “Succession” winner Sarah Snook.
Matt Roush says Pidgeon “made the most of a star-making role as Carolyn Bessette in ‘Love Story.’ ”
Count Glenn Whipp in Camp Mulligan: “Her dry put-downs mask a fury that she eventually unleashes with seismic force. Mulligan has been consistently great, but I don’t remember her being this ferocious — or funny.”
A couple of panelists rue the seeming lack of attention paid to “Murdaugh: Death in the Family,” touting Oscar and two-time Emmy winner Patricia Arquette.
“I hope voters check out at least one episode to see Patricia Arquette’s commanding performance as Maggie Murdaugh, Alex’s long-suffering, demanding wife,” writes Kristen Baldwin. Lorraine Ali concurs: “I’m rooting for long shot Patricia Arquette, who was unforgettable as the matriarch.”
Who knows? Perhaps the shocking recent news of Alex Murdaugh’s convictions being overturned will spark voter interest in the Hulu true-crime miniseries.

“It’s a shame that Hulu’s chilling true-crime series ‘Murdaugh: Death in the Family’ isn’t getting much attention this awards season. I hope voters check out at least one episode to see Patricia Arquette’s commanding performance as Maggie Murdaugh, Alex’s long-suffering, demanding wife.”

1. Carey Mulligan, “Beef”

3. Sarah Snook, “All Her Fault”
4. Claire Danes, “The Beast in Me”
5. Kerry Washington, “Imperfect Women”
“Carey Mulligan is as much a lock for a nomination as ‘Beef’ is for the series category. Sarah Pidgeon carried ‘Love Story,’ and Sarah Snook and Claire Danes are both past Emmy winners that were on very watchable crime thrillers, so their chances of landing a nomination are also pretty strong.”

5. Kerry Washington, “Imperfect Women”
“Though the series may have gotten less acclaim the longer it went on, I do think that Sarah Pidgeon’s fantastic Carolyn Bessette Kennedy in ‘Love Story’ could be powerful enough to fend off ‘Beef’s’ Carey Mulligan, who is right on her tail.”

5. Claire Danes, “The Beast in Me”
“Sarah Pidgeon made the most of a star-making role as Carolyn Bessette in ‘Love Story,’ and Sarah Snook ran the emotional gamut as ‘All Her Fault’s’ distraught mom. They’re the ones to beat, unless Sally Field’s sentimental heroine in ‘Remarkably Bright Creatures’ warms voters’ hearts.”

“You feel sorry for Oscar Isaac’s character in ‘Beef’ because he’s so clearly outmatched by his partner, played by Carey Mulligan. Her dry put–downs mask a fury that she eventually unleashes with seismic force. Mulligan has been consistently great, but I don’t remember her being this ferocious — or funny.”
