My personal ballot would be as follows, winners in boldface:

Best Drama:
Breaking Bad
Mad Men
Treme
Lost
Sons of Anarchy
Friday Night Lights

Best Comedy:
Community
Modern Family
Parks & Recreation
Glee
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Party Down

Lead Actor, Drama:
Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad)
John Hamm (Mad Men)
Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights)
Hugh Laurie (House)
Terry O'Quinn (Lost) (He was Lost's lead for its sixth season, and I give leeway for ensemble shows to nominate whoever)

Lead Actress, Drama:
January Jones (Mad Men)
Anna Gunn (Breaking Bad)
Katey Sagal (Sons of Anarchy)
Connie Britton (Friday Night Lights)
Melissa Leo (Treme)

Abstaining for having not seen most of them.


Supporting Actor, Drama:
Michael Emerson (Lost)
Josh Holloway (Lost)
Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad)
Dean Norris (Breaking Bad)
Chelcie Ross (Mad Men) (or if he only counts as "guest actor," then Andre Braugher from "Men of a Certain Age")

Supporting Actress, Drama:
Yunjin Kim (Lost)
Elizabeth Moss (Mad Men)
Khandi Alexander (Treme)
Christina Hendricks (Mad Men)
Beth Reisgraf (Leverage)

Lead Actor, Comedy:
Larry David (Curb Your Enthusiasm)
Joel McHale (Community)
Alec Baldwin (30 Rock)
Adam Scott (Party Down)
Ty Burrell (Modern Family)

Lead Actress, Comedy:
Amy Poehler (Parks & Recreation)
Lea Michelle (Glee)
Toni Collette (The United States of Tara)
Portia de Rossi (Better Off Ted)
Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie)

Haven't seen enough but Toni Collette gets my blind vote for playing so many roles.



Supporting Actor, Comedy:
Aziz Ansari (Parks & Recreation)
Nick Offerman (Parks & Recreation)
Eric Stonestreet (Modern Family)
Dany Pudi (Community)
Donald Glover (Community)


Need to watch Parks and Rec. Community doesn't have a strong enough one and I love Modern Family, especially Cam.


Supporting Actress, Comedy:
Alison Brie (Community)
Jane Lynch (Glee)
Julie Bowen (Modern Family)
Aubrey Plaza (Parks & Recreation)
Jenna Fischer (The Office)

Another one I haven't seen enough to defintitively say. Jane Lynch will win but Julie Bowen is pretty good. Only one I wouldn't give it to is Jenna Fischer.
