Supporting Actress in a Drama is a tough category. Here are some 2014 Emmy suggestions.
1. Anna Gunn

Anna Gunn was given prime material throughout the final season of Breaking Bad. And, as illustrated in this photo above, she knocked it all out of the park.
2. Annet Mahendru

Annet Mahendru played both sides on The Americans Season 2 - and she did it so well that viewers never knew where her character's allegiances actually lied.
3. Hayden Panettiere

My, how far Hayden Panettiere has come since Heroes. She made us fully believe in all of Juliette's struggles throughout Nashville Season 2.
4. Jennifer Carpenter

Dexter Season 8 was terrible. But that shouldn't overshadow the tremendous performance by Jennifer Carpenter.
5. Bellamy Young

Who else but Bellamy Young could make us love Mellie on Scandal? Or at least love to hate her?
6. Kiernan Shipka

Kiernan Shipka stars on maybe the best acted show on television. And the young star more than holds her own.
