Jon Hamm was ****ing EPIC. His performance was head and shoulders above Matthew Fox, who basically played the same character for six seasons, outside a few lines (that weren't even convincing, IMO).
As for Supporting Actor, I don't really have a dog in this hunt but I'd take John Slattery. His performance was sublime. Emerson and O'Quinn reiterated the same performances over the past 3 season and didn't bring ANYTHING new.

I agree that
Lost's sixth season was a series-damaging joke, but that doesn't diminish some of the performances. Fox was actually good, for once. So good that I am not upset that he got nominated. He sold that conversion from Man of Science to Man of Faith and it seemed to spark something in his performance. I must disagree, strongly - like to the point of cursing -, with you about Emerson and O'Quinn. They both brought plenty new to their characters. Emerson portrayed Ben Linus as more humble on the island and more protective/fatherly in the flash-sideways, while O'Quinn was
an entirely different character than in years previous.
I think Brian Cranston should win for the third straight year; his performance is an all-time great one. That said, if Jon Hamm submits the episode "The Gypsy and the Hobo" than he has a shot of upsetting Cranston. I'd like to see Hamm win it one year; he's been very good this whole time.
