2017 Primetime Emmy Ballot

Once again, it's time for my yearly primetime Emmy ballot in anticipation of tomorrow's Emmy nominations. This was another great year for comedy series and not for drama despite the fact that a ton of new dramas premiered. It was also a strong year for miniseries and other event series. This year's nominations could either be a pleasant surprise or a mess depending on which of the new shows the Emmys like and how many they are even watching.

Below are my nominee picks in all three genres (comedy, drama, movie/miniseries) in all the major categories with winners in bold. Enjoy.

2016 Dream Oscar Ballot.

Today we culminate my year of film with my yearly Oscar wishlist for 2016. This year's Academy nominations come out on Tuesday, so in preparation, here is my ballot in the majority of the Oscar categories and a couple of additional ones.

This year's Oscars will hopefully share some major titles with mine, with Moonlight and Manchester by the Sea likely to scoop up a large number of nominations. But at the Patties™ there are plenty of other films that Oscar voters likely won't even consider so here they can finally have their day in the sun! As always, I've extended each category to six contenders, with winners bolded and runners-up italicized. Enjoy!

The Best Films of 2016.

Another year has finished and it's time to list my favorite movies of the year. 2016 was, in many ways, a god awful year. But as far as the year in film, it was mostly pretty good; a little less impressive than last year, but better than the year before that. As per usual, below you'll find the 25 movies I loved the most this year, plus some extra ones and the ones I didn't enjoy so much.
