If Matty wins an Emmy, is he the first person to pull an Oscar and Emmy in the same year in major categories? I can't think of anyone else, but I'm sure I could be wrong.
This category is too close to call. Outside of Daniels, I would have no issue seeing anyone of the 5 get it. Hamm deserves one for his whole body of work on Mad Men, but that's not what it's about. In terms of the actual seasons getting voted on, I think MM and Harrelson are top 2 IMO. What they did was pretty special.
