Mad Men and Breaking Bad's new seasons haven't even aired.
I'd take any of the Modern Family writers and actors over anyone in their respective categories.
I don't think that Alec Baldwin would lose to anyone. He's universally loved.
And IMO, you've way overrated Parks & Rec. It's a good show, certainly better in season two than season one, but I don't think it's a "great" show just yet.
