(Natalia Agatte \/ For The Times)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Emmy voters have loved Uzo Aduba, who brings a special immediacy to comedic and dramatic roles alike, since her breakthrough on Netflix\u2019s \u201cOrange Is the New Black\u201d in 2013. This year, she\u2019s vying for lead actress in a comedy for her performance as an eccentric gumshoe on the Netflix whodunit \u201cThe Residence.\u201d<\/p>\n The age when Aduba, a theater actor who had barely been on TV, wowed viewers and critics as the lovesick, eloquent, unpredictable Suzanne \u201cCrazy Eyes\u201d Warren on \u201cOITNB.\u201d<\/p>\n Aduba\u2019s nomination for \u201cThe Residence\u201d is her sixth in 11 years, across four projects.<\/p>\n After winning a pair of Emmys for \u201cOITNB,\u201d Aduba added a third for playing Rep. Shirley Chisholm in the 2020 FX limited series \u201cMrs. America.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe Residence\u201d was canceled in July after one season.<\/p>\n A substantial number of actors have won Emmys for canceled series, so her show\u2019s fate does not necessarily prohibit another Aduba win in September.<\/p>\n But Aduba is in an especially stacked category, in which four of the five nominees \u2014 Aduba, \u201cAbbott Elementary’s\u201d Quinta Brunson, “The Bear’s” Ayo Edebiri and “Hacks'” Jean Smart \u2014 already have Emmys.<\/p>\n Given the competition and her show\u2019s cancellation, Aduba often ranks last in her category on Emmy prognosticators\u2019 lists. But when you’ve already persuaded voters three times, you can’t be counted out completely.<\/p>\n32\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n
