Michael C. Hall

Nominee Image for Michael C. Hall

Nomination:

Despite a resume consisting of experience exclusive to the theater, Michael C. Hall quickly became a recognizable figure on the small screen, establishing himself in diverse and often contradictory roles that earned the young actor a strong and loyal following, particularly with his breakthrough performance as the uptight gay mortician David Fisher on “Six Feet Under” (HBO, 2001-05). Hall’s penchant for playing conflicting characters enabled him to engage his imagination and breathe life into unique creations far different from most others seen on television or in film, making him a much-sought after actor. This knack culminated in titular role on “Dexter” (Showtime, 2006- ), a darkly comic drama about a blood-splatter technician in the Miami Metro Police Department moonlighting as a serial killer who hunts other killers. For the first two seasons, Hall earned Emmy nominations for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.

    The Academy got it wrong. Michael C. Hall should have run away it. I think he is being penalized for his character's persona instead of being judged by his ability to portray the character. When with the Academy quit snubbing this amazing talent?

    If you haven't completely blocked out last year's debacle of an Emmy presentation (during which five reality hosts took turns doling out hokey lines), and you caught any of this year's show hosted by the charming Neil Patrick Harris, then you know: What a difference a year makes. more »
