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.

So many TV shows, so few nominees who will end up with trophies at the Primetime Emmy Awards.

Reiner was the father of actor-director Rob Reiner, who starred as Archie Bunkers son-in-law on All in the Family and directed When Harry Met Sally... Rob Reiner said in a tweet Tuesday that his heart is hurting.
