I changed my mind since I wrote "I might examine the remaining nominations for the singing and dancing talent shows next" in the conclusion to 'RuPaul's Drag Race' leads nominations for Outstanding Reality Competition Program, but 'The Traitors' will likely win again. I wasn't feeling it. Instead, I'm looking at animation, a genre I don't always cover. Here are the nominations for animation and voice-over at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
Outstanding Animated ProgramArcane, Love, Death & Robots, and The Simpsons all have two nominations, while Bob's Burgers and Common Side Effects have just this one. Gold Derby's odds break the tie at the top as all experts, three-quarters of editors, and 88.2% of users have chosen 2022 winner Arcane to return to the podium next month. The other quarter of the editors and 6.3% of users picked 2023 winner The Simpsons to walk off with the statuette. The long-shot picks are Bob's Burgers with 2.8% of users, Common Side Effects with 1.7% of users, and Love, Death & Robots in last with 1.0% of users. Love, Death & Robots will have to get its Emmy elsewhere.
- Arcane: "The Dirt Under Your Nails" (Netflix)
- Bob's Burgers: "They Slug Horses, Don't They?" (Fox)
- Common Side Effects: "Cliff's Edge" (Adult Swim)
- Love, Death & Robots: "Spider Rose" (Netflix)
- The Simpsons: "Bart's Birthday" (Fox)

Outstanding Character Voice-Over PerformanceGold Derby expects Maya Rudolph to win for the fifth time since 2020 with the support of 85.7% of experts, all editors, and 72.2% of users. Alan Tudyk, who would be one of two nominees who would win a game of "one of these things is not like the others" because he's in a live-action show, sits in second with 14.3% of experts and 13.2% of users. Julie Andrews would be the other contestant in "one of these things is not like the others" and has 8.3% backing her. Steven Yuen has the support of 4.9% of users, while Hank Azaria and Jeffrey Wright are tied at 0.7% of users apiece.
- Julie Andrews – Bridgerton: "Into The Light" as Lady Whistledown (Netflix)
- Hank Azaria – The Simpsons: "Abe League of Their Moe" as Moe Szyslak (FOX)
- Maya Rudolph – Big Mouth: "Why Do We Go Through Puberty?" as Connie the Hormone Monstress (Netflix)

- Jeffrey Wright – What If...?: "What If... 1872?" as The Watcher (Disney+)
- Steven Yeun – Invincible: "What Have I Done?" as Mark Grayson / Invincible (Prime Video)
Outstanding Sound Editing for an Animated ProgramGold Derby does not have odds for this category, which is new, having been split off from comedy. My pick is the last animation winner, Love, Death & Robots, although both Arcane and Star Trek: Lower Decks are previous nominees.
- Arcane: "The Dirt Under Your Nails" – Brad Beaumont, Eliot Connors, Stephen P. Robinson, Janet "PJ" Pascual, Dan O'Connell, and John Cucci (Netflix)
- Love, Death & Robots: "400 Boys" – Brad North, Craig Henighan, Dawn Lunsford, Jeff Charbonneau, and Alicia Stevens (Netflix)
- Secret Level: "Warhammer 40,000: They Shall Know No Fear" – Matt Yocum, Brad North, Nolan McNaughton, Ryan Sullivan, Joseph Fraioli, Christopher Battaglia, Harry Cohen, Matt Manselle, Matt Tesley, and Brian Straub (Prime Video)
- Star Trek: Lower Decks: "The New Next Generation" – James Lucero, Drew Guy, Konrad PiƱon, James Singleton, John Wynn, Michael Britt, and Amber Funk (Paramount+)
- What If...?: "What If... 1872?" – Mac Smith, Vanessa Lapato, Alyssa Nevarez, Steve Bissinger, Derek McGinley, Anele Onyekwere, Carl Sealove, Andrea Stelter Gard, and Sean England (Disney+)
Expect me to repeat the last two categories in this year's edition of Star Trek vs. Star Wars - futuristic politics and government at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards and Star Trek vs. Star Wars at the 2024 Emmy Awards for Star Trek Day, which might feature updated odds for voice-over. In the meantime, expect another evergreen educational entry tomorrow. Stay tuned.
