Posted: 5/15/12 at 12:02pmWhy would Hilty be submitted for Supporting? That's clearly a leading role.

It's really an ensemble show. I think the only role you could make an ironclad case for being a lead would be MacPhee.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

I'm sure Messing and MacPhee will be submitted as leads, sometimes ensemble shows just have to make a choice in terms of what benefits them but also what's written on the actors' contracts. Messing is listed first on the credits, I'm sure she'll be submitted as lead. Remember that with THE SOPRANOS, both Edie Falco and Lorraine Bracco (sp?) used to submit themselves as leads, even when Falco was more clearly the lead actress in the show, but Bracco had a large role and was the Oscar nominee from the two. January Jones and Elisabeth Moss have switched lead/supporting categories throughout the years as well. I imagine it'll be Messing/MacPhee for lead, Huston and Hilty for supporting actress. I doubt anyone will get acting nods for this season though.
I do think they have a pretty good shot with Uma Thurman getting in for guest acting, I thought she was great and revitalized the show in a way that it really needed.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"

They have already decided who is going to be submitted as lead, and the only lead actress submission is Debra Messing. While everyone else: Huston, McPhee, and Hilty are competing as supporting actresses.
