They should try to be more predictable. People might have heart attacks seeing the shocking nominations.
Still not sure why anyone cares about actors' opinions of each other. I mostly care about whether *I* enjoy a given bit of entertainment or not; I'm not so concerned about how popular it is.
It is a CRIME that Tatiana Maslany was not nominated for leading female actor in a drama for the SEVEN (-ish) discreet characters that she plays on Orphan Black.
