My Pick: Sofia Vergara
Look, I love Jane. I’ve loved Jane forever. I want Jane to win all the awards, always. But this wasn’t really Sue Sylvester’s season. Instead, I have to go with Sofia. I still pee myself a little when I think about Gloria asking Claire to taste her cupcakes.

Eric Stonestreet – Modern Family
Ty Burrell – Modern Family
Chris Colfer – Glee
Ed O’Neill – Modern Family
Jon Cryer – Two and a Half Men

Kurt Hummel is perhaps the world’s best “It Gets Better” video possible.
Lead Actress in a Comedy SeriesLaura Linney – The Big C
Edie Falco – Nurse Jackie
Amy Poehler – Parks & Recreation
Melissa McCarthy –Mike & Molly
Martha Plimpton – Raising Hope
Tina Fey – 30 Rock
You Picked: Tina Fey
<a href=”http://polldaddy.com/poll/5234742/”>Lead Actress in a Comedy Series</a>My Pick: Tina Fey
I will never, ever not pick my Fake TV Wife. But — big but — if she were not to win I would want her BFF Amy Poehler to take it home. Leslie Knope for President!
Lead Actor in a Comedy SeriesMatt LeBlanc – Episodes
Jim Parsons – Big Bang Theory
Steve Carrell – The Office
Johnny Galecki –Big Bang Theory
Louis C.K. – Louie
Alec Baldwin – 30 Rock
You Picked: Jim Parsons
<a href=”http://polldaddy.com/poll/5234758/”>Lead Actor in a Comedy Series</a>My Pick: Alec Baldwin
I confess, I don’t watch The Big Bang Theory so I can’t judge Jim Parsons. But regardless I will always be on the side of someone who encourages people to get “business drunk.”
Lead Actress in a Drama SeriesElisabeth Moss – Mad Men
Connie Britton – Friday Night Lights
Mariska Hargitay – SVU
Mireille Enos –The Killing
Julianna Marguiles – The Good Wife
Kathy Bates – Harry’s Law
You Picked: Julianna Margulies
<a href=”http://polldaddy.com/poll/5234762/”>Lead Actress in a Drama Series</a>My Pick: Julianna Margulies
Why? Because Julianna is especially good when things are bad for her on The Good Wife. Also, maybe winning will make her more amenable to forgiving Kalinda.
Lead Actor in a Drama SeriesSteve Buscemi – Boardwalk Empire
Michael C. Hall – Dexter
Kyle Chandler – Friday Night Lights
Jon Hamm –Mad Men
Hugh Laurie – House
Timothy Olyphant – Justified
You Picked: Hugh Laurie
<a href=”http://polldaddy.com/poll/5234769/”>Lead Actor in a Drama Series</a>My Pick: Jon Hamm
Because if it wasn’t for Bryan Cranston and Breaking Bad he would have won one already.
Supporting Actress in a Drama SeriesKelly Macdonald – Boardwalk Empire
Christina Hendricks – Mad Men
Michelle Forbes – The Killing
Archie Panjabi – The Good Wife
Margo Martindale – Justified
Christine Baranski – The Good Wife
You Picked: Archie Panjabi

The Office
Modern Family
30 Rock
Big Bang Theory
You Picked: Glee
<a href=”http://polldaddy.com/poll/5234781/”>Oustanding Comedy Series</a>My Pick: Parks & Recreation
Look, as much as I love and adore and cherish and obsess about 30 Rock, Amy’s show was better than Tina’s show last year. And Amy’s show was also more consistently great than Glee and more unexpectedly hilarious than Modern Family. Pawnee, Indiana — I salute you.
Outstanding Drama SeriesGame of Thrones
Dexter
Mad Men
The Good Wife
Friday Night Lights
Boardwalk Empire
You Picked: The Good Wife
<a href=”http://polldaddy.com/poll/5234797/”>Outstanding Drama Series</a>My Pick: The Good Wife
It’s got the word “good” right there in the title, people. And it really is.
