“Barry’s” Bill Hader took this category last year and, honestly, it would be shocking to see him lose it this time around. Especially considering how the Acting Branch rewarded four of his co-stars in other categories (up from just one last year). That likely makes “Schitt’s Creek’s” Eugene Levy the underdog and sentimental favorite. Is the nomination the win for Levy or can he upset and make Emmy history? [Updated Aug 13]
