I tried to limit each category to six nominees, but I had to expand the show ones to ten because I just couldn't narrow it down thus giving me 100 total nominations to honor my favorites which means I'm just as worst as the Grammys. That said, 31 shows and 60 performances are listed above with just as many (if not more) not making it in. Picking the winner in each category will be an easier task probably, which I'll have in a couple of days before I finally post my yearly ranked list of TV shows.
