Emmys, please don’t forget ...

More of USA TODAY television critic Robert Bianco’s picks for his dream Emmy ballot:

DRAMA SUPPORTING ACTOR

Peter Dinklage ( Game of Thrones) Jonathan Banks ( Better Call Saul) Alan Cumming ( The Good Wife) Ray Romano ( Vinyl) Christian Slater ( Mr. Robot) Michael McKean ( Better Call Saul) Cumming is essential here, but odds are he’s a safe bet. My fear is that Vinyl’s lack of ratings and cultural impact will hurt Romano’s chances.

DRAMA SUPPORTING ACTRESS

Uzo Aduba ( Orange Is the New Black) Christine Baranski ( The Good Wife) Maggie Smith ( Downton Abbey) Holly Taylor ( The Americans) Regina King ( The Leftovers) Margo Martindale ( The Good Wife) I know why Baranski doesn’t have an Emmy for The Good

Wife: Look at how strong the field is. But still: Baranski doesn’t have an Emmy for The Good Wife. Something about that just doesn’t seem right.

COMEDY SUPPORTING ACTOR

Tony Hale ( Veep) Tituss Burgess ( Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) Ty Burrell ( Modern Family) Andre Braugher ( Brooklyn Nine- Nine) Louie Anderson ( Baskets) Jaime Camil ( Jane the Virgin) The always- fabulous Hugh Laurie ( Veep) just barely misses the cut here, though I wouldn’t be sur- prised if he makes it when the nominations are announced. But not, I hope, at the expense of Camil, whose stellar work has been overlooked long enough.

COMEDY SUPPORTING ACTRESS

Allison Janney ( Mom) Anna Chlumsky ( Veep) Judith Light ( Transparent) Elizabeth Gillies ( Sex& Drugs& Rock& Roll) Donna Lynne Champlin ( Crazy Ex- Girlfriend) Eden Sher ( The Middle) Yeah, I don’t care. I’m going to keep saying “Eden Sher” until Emmy voters listen.

LIMITED SERIES

The People v. O. J. Simpson ( FX) Fargo ( FX) American Crime ( ABC) The Night Manager ( AMC) Roots ( History) Couldn’t we finagle a tie somehow, so BBC America’s London

Spy sneaks on to the list as well?

TV MOVIE

Confirmation ( HBO) All the Way ( HBO) Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill ( HBO) The Dresser ( Starz) Sherlock: The Abominable Bride ( PBS) And then there’s this category, in which you have to stretch to fill. Confirmation, All the Way and Lady Day are the essentials. After that, feel free to improvise.

MOVIE/ LIMITED ACTOR

Bryan Cranston ( All the Way) Courtney B. Vance ( The People v. O. J. Simpson) Patrick Wilson ( Fargo) Tom Hiddleston ( The Night Manager) Ben Whishaw ( London Spy) Timothy Hutton ( American Crime) Overall, I found The Dresser on Starz underwhelming and disappointing, but I won’t be surprised or upset if its star, Anthony Hopkins, makes the list.

MOVIE/ LIMITED ACTRESS

Sarah Paulson ( The People v. O. J. Simpson) Kirsten Dunst ( Fargo) Kerry Washington ( Confirmation) Felicity Huffman ( American Crime) Audra McDonald ( Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill) Lili Taylor ( American Crime) My goodness, the talent in this category. And if you think the choices are tough now ( and they’ll be even tougher if Roots actors Emayatzy Corinealdi and Anika Noni Rose enter the race as leads, as their counterparts in the original did), wait until you actually have to pick a winner come September.

RAY MICKSHAW, FX The People v. O. J. Simpson was a standout limited series, as was Sarah Paulson’s portrayal of prosecutor Marcia Clark, here with Sterling K. Brown as Christopher Darden.

CHRIS LARGE, FX Fargo and star Kirsten Dunst also were standouts in the limited series category, as was Dunst’s co- star, Patrick Wilson.

MICHAEL ANSELL, ABC Eden Sher deserves a nod for her work on The Middle.

HILARY BRONWYN GAYLE, HBO Bryan Cranston portrayed LBJ in HBO’s All the Way.
