And the Winner Is...
ALEX BORSTEIN
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Prime Video)
Alex Borstein returns to the winner's circle after last winning this award in 2020. Borstein has made Susie Myerson an iconic character in the five seasons of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and in the final season, she showed more depth than ever before. We got a rare glimpse into a romantic past during the season and also saw what happened to Susie in the decades that followed the time period of Maisel. Borstein was up for all challenges. She continued to be hilarious as Susie with one-liners and sarcastic responses but she also showed depth and vulnerability. We saw Susie at highs and lows throughout the season as the final season really proved that the heart of Maisel was always Susie and Midge's friendship.
Thoughts on the Rest of the Nominees:
The last two winners were in the mix again this year. 2022 winner Janelle James was hilarious again in the second season of Abbott Elementary though I did sometimes feel like the show was trying a little too hard with her. 2021 winner Hannah Waddingham was stuck in some bad stories in the third season of Ted Lasso but always did the most she could with them. Two of James' Abbott co-stars were also in the mix. Sheryl Lee Ralph continues to bring a grounding presence to the show while Lisa Ann Walter, who was a little in the background in the first season, really came into her own for the second season. Elsewhere, D'Arcy Carden and Gbemisola Ikumelo were the best parts of a strong ensemble in A League of Their Own and while I thought the final season of Barry was quite messy, there was no denying just how strong Sarah Goldberg is as an actress and her character was definitely the most interesting of the season.
Tomorrow: Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited/Anthology Series!
