bit of a S P O I L E R With respect to Kate Mara - I think they have the right category for season 2. But in general the whole lead/supporting/guest actor/actress thing seems utterly arbitrary. From the rules of last year's Emmys (the first set that Google found): "It is the decision of the entrant whether to enter as a lead or supporting performer. Series performers should enter according to their lead or supporting place in the body of work aired during the eligibility year. However, only those performers with “guest star” billing, or who are contracted as such, may enter in a “guest” performer category. While the performer's choice is generally approved, the Primetime Awards Committee determines the final category eligibility." http://www.emmys.com/sites/default/files/d6tv/pte13_rulesandproced_rev8.pdf Adam -- -- TV or Not TV ....
