Throughout the Scene Editor last several years, HBO's "The Larry Sanders Show" with Gary Shandling has been the most high-profile As the new television season is representative in the major categories. born into the lives of Americans With the series' last season being rewarded in the across the nation, little by little, the 1998 Emmy Awards, HBO seemed destined for exile in specter of the 1998-99 season the Made for Television Movie category. diminishes into their collective That was until two new HBO series debuted last sea memory. son.

Though not a huge number, they come in two sources of visual splendor of the past of the major categories: Outstanding Actress in a come year is at last in the present. This dy for Parker and Outstanding Comedy Series. Sunday, the 1999 Emmy Awards will HBO's other show, the mafia drama "The Sopranos," reward the best of the crop, from the zani has hit the Emmys bigger than any other drama in est of the zany, to the sharpest of the sharp, recent Emmy history. With an astounding 16 nomina to the profoundest of the profound. Above tions, "The Sopranos" leads both network and cable all, the Emmy telecast should invite shows in number of nominations.

With 13 nods makes this past year a apiece, "The Practice" and "Ally McBeal" look to contin dividing marker ue Kelly's dominance at the Emmys. Remember, Kelly's between '90s televi- "Picket Fences" won several major awards throughout sion and television its early 1990s run, including two Outstanding Dramatic of the new millen Series statuettes, and "The Practice" surprised critics nium. everywhere when it won that same award last year. Throughout Here's a look at the races in Emmy's biggest cate the '90s, there gories: has been a steady Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy increase This category is perhaps the tightest of the major in the awards, as it includes Kristen Johnson of "Third Rock number from the Sun," lisa Kudrow of "Friends," Lucy Liu of 0 f "Ally McBeal," Wendie Malick of "Just Shoot Me" and nom ina- Doris Roberts of "Everybody Loves Raymond." Johnson certainly contributes her share of over-the top acting that makes "Third Rock" worth watching. She previously has won in this category, which puts her in a precarious situation this year. Kudrow, the defending champion, is the only acting nominee from "Friends," which consists only of sup porting actors. Her Phoebe Buffet role leaped into a depth unseen in "Friends," as she had her triplets, gave them up and dealt with it. If anyone can repeat as champion, Kudrow will be the one. Lucy Liu, who plays the coldhearted Ling on "Ally McBeal," was a high point in a sometimes repetitive season. As one of the few minority actresses nominated. a win for Liu would certainly be some good PR for the Academy. Wendie Malick, another first-time nominee, unfortu nately does not have a strong show to support, as the other nominees do. Therefore her well done efforts on "Just Shoot Me" can't level up to the just-as-good efforts on better shows. The final nominee, Doris Roberts, proves that age doesn't matter when it comes to comedy. Playing Marie Barone, mother of the man who everybody loves, Hoberts' neurotic character excels at creating a pathetic desire to remain in her son's life forever. Who should win: It's a toss-up Who will win: Kudrow Outstanding Supporting Actor in a comedy The Academy probably had a tough time choosing five nominees for this category, as the choice candidate is a little more clear-cut. Nominees include Peter Boyle of "Everybody Loves Haymond," John Mahoney of "Frasier," Peter MacNichol of "Ally McBeal," David Hyde Pierce of "Frasier" and David Spade of "Just Shoot Me. .. Peter Boyle serves the similar purpose in "Raymond" that Doris Roberts does. As an older actor, he adds a pathetic sense of senility to the cast. MacNichol was probably nominated merely for the eccentric quality of his character, but he should not be recognized as support for the rest of the cast of "Ally." Mahoney and Pierce, though very strong comedic Photo courtesy of 20th Century Fox actors, must suffer for the less-than-stellar "Frasier" The cast of "The Practice" hopes to make it two in a row this Sunday at the Emmy Awards.
