Emmy Wish List: Lead Actress in a Drama

at .

We believe these leading ladies should be nominated for Lead Actress in a Drama.

1. Tatiana Maslany

Should be the clear cut favorite for her role(s) on Orphan Black. Sadly, we'd be suprirsed if she even gets nominated.

2. Julianna Margulies

The Good Wife was never better than this past season, and Julianna Margulies was never better in the lead role of Alicia Florrick.

3. Vera Farmiga

Sufficiently creepy while making her character sympathetic at times, Vera Farmiga keeps us coming back to Bates Motel.

4. Keri Russell

The tough exterior of Elizabeth Jennings was pierced on The Americans Season 2, as Keri Russell let viewers directly into the soul of her character.

5. Kerry Washington

When it comes to captivating audiences with a flare for the dramatic and the emotional, Kerry Washington has it handled.

6. Nicole Beharie

We're allowed one out of the box selection, right? Nicole Beharie helped ground Sleepy Hollow's nuttiness in human emotion.
