Ripper Street: Will Matthew Macfadyen get an Emmy nod? (Boston Globe)

The Boston Globe has an interesting article about suggestions for Emmy nods.  Here's what they said about Matthew Macfadyen:

The BBC America series “Ripper Street” had a lot going for it during its first season — a vivid late-19th century setting, early “CSI”-style forensics, and twisty cases of the week. And Matthew Macfadyen, as lead detective Edmund Reid, was its best virtue. Macfadyen, so memorable in PBS’s “Little Dorrit” and “Any Human Heart,” was commanding and morally sound in an atmosphere of East End chaos, and then he was emotionally damaged and secretive. In a world where Michael C. Hall is continually nominated for a role that has become stale, in “Dexter,” Macfadyen ought to be a sure bet.

Hopefully the Emmys will listen.
