Since I have a passionate love for television, every year I create my own version of the Emmy awards (where the nominations should replace the legit ones). In this blog series, I will post one category daily and review it. I'll announce my nominations and then my winner.

The thirteenth category is Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. To me, this is the best category of the year. It was the toughest for me to decide because of all the amazing supporting actresses on television. The whole Orange Is the New Black female cast deserves a nomination for their individual work. But, there are way too many great TV shows for that to happen.
My nominees are:
Uzo Aduba as Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren – Orange Is The New Black
Joelle Carter as Ava Crowder – Justified
Carrie Coon as Nora Durst – The Leftovers
Lena Headey as Cersei Lannister – Game Of Thrones
Lorraine Toussaint as Yvonne “Vee” Parker – Orange Is The New Black
Mae Whitman as Amber Holt – Parenthood
And the winner is...

Carrie Coon as Nora Durst from The Leftovers! Anyone who has watched The Leftovers knows that Carrie Coon absolutely slayed the first season of The Leftovers. One episode that was a particular standout for her was her episode coming to terms with her family's departure. The range of emotions she had throughout that episode was stunning. I cannot wait until October 4 for The Leftovers premiere which is mostly due to her phenomenal performance.
