The best actress is, and always will be, one Ms. Lena Headey.
"No true knight would condone such wanton butchery." "True knights see worse every time they ride to war, wench," said Jaime. "And do worse, yes." Brienne turned the rudder toward the shore. "I'll leave no innocents to be food for crows." "A heartless wench. Crows need to eat as well. Stay to the river and leave the dead alone, woman."

Not that Maggie Smith isn't a good actress, but she's won her share. Time for someone else.
Yeah, Maggie Smith is wonderful too. I've just never seen a TV villain quite like Cersei Lannister...

Completely agree. Reading the books, you can't help but realize that Cersei would be an expansive and difficult character to portray... and Lena Headey has really done an amazing job with it. The fact that it is also a female character really makes it warrant even more recognition imo, because it is rare that a female character is written to be as complicated as she is.

Yup! Even after all the awful shit she's done in both versions of the story, I still want more than anything for her soul to find peace before the end. Bringing that sort of nuance to a medium where we can't sit down and read her thoughts, is just...

Must of just happened, I couldn't get back to sleep & was reading the list...of all the stuff they lost. I expected more awards, this season imo was better than last year.
