“The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” actor Cynthia Addai-Robinson is at her first Emmys. Although HBO's "Succession," which won the best drama series award in 2020, and "Ted Lasso" from Apple TV+ are considered the frontrunners for top series honors, there's potential for surprises.

While predicting victors this year is like one of those daunting “Squid Game” contests, Associated Press Television Writer Lynn Elber and AP Entertainment Writer Mark Kennedy foolishly soldier on. ELBER:Should win: “Severance” captures the zeitgeist of worker discontent, but let’s consider “Squid Game” and its take on soul-destroying poverty. “Abbott Elementary” is the rare sitcom that clicked from the start, with its characters, stories and heart all in the right place. Will win: “Abbott Elementary,” despite the odds against an old-school network entry winning against flashier cable and streaming rivals. ELBER:Should win and will win: Versatile, long-admired actor Lynskey gets her first Emmy for her role as Shauna, who has umm, meaty secrets.
