In our fifth annual Emmy prediction special Dave, Mike and John try to predict the very unpredictable 2015 Primetime Emmy Awards in all the major categories. The 67th Primetime Emmys are on Sunday, September 20th on FOX and will be hosted by Andy Samberg.

We first discuss how Andy will do (2:15), overall nomination stats (5:40) and give our miscellaneous predictions for various smaller categories (8:35). We then predict (in order) drama supporting actress (23:10), drama supporting actor (29:25), comedy supporting actress (34:00), comedy supporting actor (39:00), drama lead actress (43:25), drama lead actor (50:00), comedy lead actress (56:15), comedy lead actor (1:01:30), drama series (1:05:25) and comedy series (1:10:05). Along the way we also veto a nomination in every category and replace the nominee with another who we believe deserves that spot.
