Aaron Paul deserved this more than any of the nominees. The fact he didn't get a nomination is disgusting when William Shatner did. Out of the nominees I think Michael Emerson deserved it most but Ivanek is a good actor. It's just a shame Breaking Bad was such a small show back then. The fact that The Wire only ever received two nominations is a testament to how little the Emmys mean.
This was really well deserved. He probably won because he's worked on so many shows with so many people eligible to vote for this category, even once it gets to committee.
Fantastic actor with such a range.
This category always has very worthy winners, I think. I'm hoping John Slattery wins one soon for Mad Men but because his character is so straight and doesn't have the same craziness these others characters go through, he's unlikely to win.
Zeljko Ivanek is BRILLIANT. I am SO happy they finally recognized him after all these years of being on television. More power to him and I just wish he would be the lead in something dammit! :) I want to see him in much more work-especially in films.
he is great. saw him on house and did a double take. just started watching damages and it is GREAT. wish there was more of him and wouldn't it be great if he did a lead role in something. he is AWSOME!!!
Yeah, he definitely had a broad base of support, probably from being in so many tv shows! That's really great when the applause and cheering increased as he took the stage.
Nobody's seen him on house? I think that was his best role! If anyone watches house, the episode is Last Resort. It is my favorite episode you have to see it!
Amazing thing, he has probably worked with every actor in that friggin' auditorium and he finally gets the recognition he deserves. He's tearing it up on every show right now! This man is legend.

I can't help shout out 'Andre Drazen' whenever he appears on TV. This guy gets almost as everywhere as Alan Dale!
