"As preparations get underway for this weekend's Emmy Awards in LA, experts have been predicting who'll walk away with the top prizes.

Brian Lowry, chief film critic for the Daily Variety, tipped Keifer Sutherland for the Lead Actor in a Drama Series award, thanks to poor contenders in the category.

He said: "You had some people who found there way into the category, who normally wouldn't," such as "Law and Order: SVU"'s Christopher Meloni."

As for best Drama Series, Lowry gave it to Grey's Anatomy although he reckons Lost, which wasn't nominated, would have been the better option.

"(It's) the one really glaring aspect of that category," he explained. "It won the year before and I thought it had a terrific second season. It's a very strong show."

According to Lowry, things didn't line up with the comedy contenders either, with two stars in cancelled series earning nominations for Lead Actress.

However, things were brighter in the Best Comedy category where he predicted a win for The Office.

He said: "It was a show that people wanted to dismiss as an American version of a British show, and, instead, it really blossomed into one of the great shows on television."

The 58th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards airs in the US on Sunday 27 August on NBC."

[ Woo hoo, I will be one happy camper if Keifer gets the award! Maybe because that's the ONLY show I watch every week without fail, lol }
