Who will win: Christopher Storer and Joanna Calo ("Fishes," The Bear)

Who should win: Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs, and Jen Statsky ("Bulletproof," Hacks)

While I loved "Fishes," I think the episode hinges on the performances and the direction. While the writing is strong, I don't think it's as strong as other episodes of The Bear Season 2. That being said, the guest actors in this episode, Jon Bernthal and Jamie Lee Curtis, already won Outstanding Guest Actor and Guest Actress at the Creative Arts Emmys ceremony for this episode, so I think it's a heavy favorite to clean up in these technical categories, too. However, I think it might pull out the win, but I would LOVE to see "Bulletproof" from Hacks take this one. Hacks previously won an Emmy for writing for the pilot episode, so I hope the show keeps their good luck going this year, too.

Other nominees: Quinta Brunson ("Career Day," Abbott Elementary), Meredith Scardino and Sam Means ("Orlando," Girls5eva), Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider ("Brooke Hosts a Night of Undeniable Good," The Other Two), and Jake Bender and Zach Dunn ("Pride Prade," What We Do in the Shadows)
