After a delayed awards season and increased home releases, the first major Oscar precursor awards ceremony finally arrives on Feb. 28. The Golden Globes will be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler and occur in two different locations on both coasts.

We compiled the most anticipated categories of the night and picked out our predictions for the 78th Golden Globes ceremony.

Best Television Series- Drama

“The Crown”

“Lovecraft County”

“The Mandalorian”

“Ozark”

“Ratched”

Netflix’s “The Crown” stepped up their game for the fourth season, with a new timeline and a focus on characters such as Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher, not seen in previous seasons. Though it remained a show about the Queen herself, this season marks the first to expand so broadly upon other characters and introduce us to the storylines woven around the Queen. “Ozark” always pulls out the stops and was one of my favorite shows of the past year, but this season of “The Crown” felt more special and more raw. It was a fan favorite, and I have no doubt it will be a favorite on awards night as well.   

Who Kathryn thinks will win: “The Crown” 

Who Kathryn thinks should win: “Ozark”

Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series- Drama

Olivia Colman (“The Crown”)

Jodie Comer (“Killing Eve”)

Emma Corrin (“The Crown”)

Laura Linney (“Ozark”)

Sarah Paulson (“Ratched”)

This category is incredibly stacked, with five actresses who could have easily earned this award for the performances they gave in their respective shows. Emma Corrin quickly became a fan favorite this season, portraying Princess Diana in Netflix’s “The Crown” and doing so with precision and grace. Laura Linney, who is being nominated for her fourth season of “Ozark” for playing the feisty and whip-smart Wendy Byrde, is far more deserving of the award. This season of “Ozark” was practically written for Wendy; more so than any other season, Linney was allowed to demonstrate her incredible range as she continued to fight for her family and their lives. Though I was incredibly impressed with Corrin’s performance, nothing beats what Linney brought to the screen. 

Who Kathryn thinks will win: Emma Corrin 

Who Kathryn thinks should win: Laura Linney 

Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series- Drama

Jason Bateman (“Ozark”)

Josh O’Connor (“The Crown”)

Bob Odenkirk (“Better Call Saul”)

Al Pacino (“Hunters”)

Matthew Rhys (“Perry Mason”)

Bateman has poured everything he has into directing, producing and starring in “Ozark”, and this past season he gave the performance of a lifetime. He seems to be the frontrunner to win, followed by O’Connor, who could pull through and take home the prize, but he was no match against Bateman. With a character as developed and thought-out as Marty Byrde is, Bateman has proven himself a force to be reckoned with both on screen and in the television world, and he no doubt deserves this award.

Best Television Series- Musical or Comedy

“Emily in Paris”

“The Flight Attendant”

“The Great”

“Schitt’s Creek”

“Ted Lasso” 

“Schitt’s Creek” provided fans with feel good characters and absurdly funny lines for six seasons and they made history at the 2020 Emmy Awards with the most wins for a comedy series in one year. I think “The Great” was the comedic underdog of the season and deserves recognition as an incredibly well-made historical satire with a strong cast and an excellent storyline. Though it’s a long shot, “The Great” deserves the award this time around. 

Who Kathryn thinks will win: “Schitt’s Creek” 

Who Kathryn thinks should win: “The Great”

Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series- Musical or Comedy

Lily Collins (“Emily in Paris”)

Kaley Cuoco (“The Flight Attendant”)

Elle Fanning (“The Great”)

Jane Levy (“Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist”)

Catherine O’Hara (“Schitt’s Creek”)

There is nothing quite like watching O’Hara dazzle on screen in “Schitt’s Creek”. She’s a force to be reckoned with in her role as the funny and dramatic Moira Rose, a former soap opera actress stranded with her family in a run-down town that is far, far below her preferred standards of living. In the sixth and final season of the show, O’Hara gave her strongest performance, embodying this character as if it were herself and surely leaving a stamp on comedic television. She won the Emmy for Best Actress in a Comedy Series back in September, and I have no doubt she will win this award again on Sunday.

Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series- Musical or Comedy

Don Cheadle (“Black Monday”)

Nicholas Hoult (“The Great”)

Eugene Levy (“Schitt’s Creek”)

Jason Sudeikis (“Ted Lasso”)

Ramy Youssef (“Ramy”)

Sudekis certainly has the upper hand this time around with his stellar performance as Ted Lasso on Apple TV+’s “Ted Lasso”, and he is definitely feeling the pre-Emmy award hype as he is sure to expect a nomination this fall. Eugene Levy won this past September for “Schitt’s Creek”, and his performance on the show has been one of my favorite comedic performances in a while. Part of me feels like Sudekis has the win this time around and that Levy will be sitting this one out. 

Who Kathryn thinks will win: Jason Sudekis 

Who Kathryn thinks should win: Eugene Levy 

Best Television Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for Television

“Normal People”

“The Queen’s Gambit”

“Small Axe”

“The Undoing”

“Unorthodox”

Netflix’s “The Queen’s Gambit” has won over fans and critics alike, which isn’t a surprise given Anya Taylor-Joy’s fantastic performance and such a phenomenal developed plot. It’s sure to bring home the win this Sunday, and everyone is expecting it to. However, I would love to see a win for Netflix’s “Unorthodox”, a series about a woman who breaks free from her arranged marriage in her Hasidic community and flees to Germany to find herself. It’s a long shot, but I found myself falling in love with the characters and the story as the show developed. 

Who Kathryn thinks will win: “The Queen’s Gambit” 

Who Kathryn thinks should win: “Unorthodox” 

Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for Television

Cate Blanchett (“Mrs. America”)

Daisy Edgar-Jones (“Normal People”)

Shira Haas (“Unorthodox”)

Nicole Kidman (“The Undoing”)

Anya Taylor-Joy

Blanchett gave one of my favorite performances of the year in Hulu’s “Mrs. America, where she played real-life political figure Phyllis Schlafly, the woman behind the downfall of the ERA in the 1980s. For a limited series, her character had a tremendous amount of depth and arc, and I feel she definitely deserves an award for the performance she gave. Taylor-Joy has fans and critics raving for her performances as Beth Harmon in Netflix’s “The Queen’s Gambit”, it’s not a shock as to why. She molded a character that was cunning, bold, seductive, and loveable, and though my bias for Blanchett’s performance has me hoping she’ll pull through, I have no doubt Taylor-Joy will end the night with a win.  

Who Kathryn thinks will win: Anya Taylor-Joy

Who Kathryn thinks should win: Cate Blanchett 

Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Supporting Role

Gillian Anderson (“The Crown”)

Helena Bonham Carter (“The Crown”)

Julia Garner (“Ozark”)

Annie Murphy (“Schitt’s Creek”)

Cynthia Nixon (“Ratched”)

Anderson’s turn as Margaret Thatcher in “The Crown” was so incredibly accurate that it was kind of shocking. Though this was her first and only season on the show, Anderson took that season and made it her own. Her interpretation of Thatcher was multi-faceted, as she took us through the ups and downs of the character’s inner psyche and put us in a place to both respect and despise her. It gave both the season and a lot of the plotlines some depth and dimension. Garner won the Emmy in September for playing Ruth Langmore on “Ozark”, but this season of “The Crown” hadn’t come out yet. If anyone were Anderson’s closest competition it would be Garner, but I have a strong feeling that Anderson will pull through.

Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for Television

Bryan Cranston (“Your Honor”)

Jeff Daniels (“The Comey Rule”)

Hugh Grant (“The Undoing”)

Ethan Hawke (“The Good Lord Bird”)

Mark Ruffalo (“I Know This Much Is True”)

Ruffalo has caused quite a sensation with his role in “I Know This Much Is True”, where he plays twin brothers Dominick and Thomas Birdsey. Tackling two leading roles in one television show is no easy feat, yet Ruffalo has made it appear as natural as possible. While his performance was incredibly moving, I found myself rooting heavily for Grant while watching “The Undoing”. Though there was a lot wrong with the series as a whole, Grant proved himself versatile and had me duped for a majority of the show. While Ruffalo has proven himself multifaceted in both his roles, Grant’s edge and mischief should win him the award. 

Who Kathryn thinks will win: Mark Ruffalo 

Who Kathryn thinks should win: Hugh Grant

Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Supporting Role

John Boyega (“Small Axe”)

Brendan Gleeson (“Small Axe”)

Daniel Levy (“Schitt’s Creek”)

Jim Parson (“Hollywood”)

Donald Sutherland (“The Undoing”)

Levy is a fan favorite in “Schitt’s Creek”, fresh off three Emmy wins for his role as a writer, director and actor on the show. As the seasons went on, his performance as David Rose on the show got funnier and funnier, and he has quickly cemented himself as a strong comedic actor with a fiery sense of humor and a loveable personality. I think Sutherland should win for his performance as Franklin Reinhart in HBO’s “The Undoing”. It’s a long shot for sure, but I would absolutely love to see it happen. His performance was passionate, intense and emotional, and it moved me more than any other performance by an actor in this category.
