Taking the top spot with an overwhelming 94.34% of the votes is Con O’Neill for his portrayal of Izzy Hands in ‘Our Flag Means Death’ (Season 2, Episode 8). O’Neill’s performance in the season finale was nothing short of extraordinary.

In second place, with 1.29% of the votes, is Maddie Phillips for her role as Cate Dunlap in ‘Gen V’ (Season 1, Episode 7). Phillips’ performance in this penultimate episode was captivating as her character grappled with a complex internal conflict. Cate’s ordeal pushed her to the edge, leading her to contemplate a complete revolution against normal humans. Phillips’ portrayal of Cate’s struggle was both compelling and nuanced, making her a standout in the episode.

Finally, with 1.24% of the votes, we have Titus Welliver for his role as Harry Bosch in ‘Bosch: Legacy’ (Season 2, Episode 2).
