Who Will Nab the Emmy? Carell or Baldwin
Tony O'Neil of the Los Angeles Times speculates whether Steven Carrel of The Office or Alec Baldwin of 30 Rock will take home the Emmy. It's interesting to note how the race has boiled down between the two actors who delivered incredible and hilarious performances this year.
This year Carell has a secret edge: a special, one-hour episode he submitted to judges ("Goodbye, Toby"). Because the comedy acting categories are usually dominated by half-hour sitcoms, having twice the face time of your rivals often pays off…
Baldwin displays a dazzling array of emotions when he breaks into his outrageous jive riff during the therapy session with Tracy, which has the impact of a nuclear bomb.
Engaging in award nominees is usually pointless, as it can be incredibly difficult to predict, but I agree with O'Neil's perspective. The race between the two is incredibly close. Baldwin steals the spotlight on 30 Rock, but Carell consistently carries The Office. What do you guys think?
