Golden Globe Predictions (TV Category)

In my previous post I predicted Golden Globe Motion Picture category, now it is time to look through TV Show categories that are more competitive this year than it was last year. 

This year couple of new Shows have been premiered and some of them are already considered to be major competitors (for example The Newsroom) for this award ceremony which means that some old series have to go back

Most likely to be omitted from the final list of Golden Globe nominations still are: Game of Thrones, last year winner Peter Dinklage, Emily Mortimer (The Newsroom) and Julia Bowen (Modern Family). But I still keep them in the list that can be changed in any moment, before nominee announcement.

* Michael C. Hall is not widely predicted for this nomination, but I consider him to be one of the best candidates this year. As Dexter's previous season was quite tough and he's already received a Emmy nomination this year, he can be in a list.
