Here are my nominees for my mid-season awards. I'd say I watch a LOT of television, so this not meant to be biased towards any particular network. I'm going by Emmy rules in terms of the start of the TV season (essentially June forwards). Please either vote for your favorites below, or PM me with your ballot. I'll announce the winners on Monday.
