Emmys: TVGuide.com's picks for lead actress in a comedy series
Alec Baldwin, 30 RockFor those of you who are tired of Baldwin being a mainstay in this race year after year, watch this season's live episode and tell us that he is not worthy of at least a nomination. No, it wasn't the scrupulous Jack Donaghy we adore (not all of it anyway), but the two-time champ put on a comic display for the ages (twice!) in the inspired ode to the thrill of live TV.Louis C.K., LouieThe standup comedian does a lot of things on the FX series (creator, star, writer, director, producer, editor), but his acting cannot be overlooked. Sure, he's playing a fictionalized version of himself, but his complicated, irreverent and bleakly hilarious performance is what carries the one-man show. C.K. somewhat surprisingly made the cut last year and we sure hope he's there to stay.Larry David, Curb Your EnthusiasmAfter an interminable hiatus, David returned better than ever. Season 8's relocation to New York reinvigorated the series and gave the curmudgeonly one ample opportunity to grumble about new mundane things, not to mention get into it with Rosie O'Donnell and Michael J. Fox. Only David could accuse Fox of using Parkinson's disease to excuse his bullying ways and have us doubled over with laughter.Garret Dillahunt, Raising Hope
