In preparation for Tuesday's impending Emmy nominations, it's time for my yearly ballot of the best TV from the past year. Something that has remained true for a few years now: there are more exceptional comedies than dramas, and the comedy categories are impossible to narrow down while the drama categories have to be seriously stretched. This was also a great year for miniseries and those categories are definitely not afterthoughts as they have been in years past.
Below are my nominee picks in all three genres with each winner in bold. Enjoy!
