Not much thought here. Just went with last year's nominees then added The Boys and Better Call Saul spinoffs since the Emmys know them and Arcane since it seems big enough to get the open slot.

The WGA win really makes me went to predict a Tuca & Bertie nom.

Given the history of field, if Arcane's biggest hurdle to the win is the nomination.

Bad Bitch and Visions feel like their being underestimated. The animation branch adores Star Wars. OG Clone Wars won its category; 08 Clone Wars won multiple Daytime Emmys and both Rebels and Resistance got nominated for Children's Programme. Even the Simpsons promo “The Force Awakens From It’s Nap” got a Short-Form nomination.
