EWB's Favorite TV Shows 2013: The Voting Thread

Last Season, on EWB's Favorite TV Show 2012:

Oh it's time. Time for EWBers to sit down and think about all the shit they watched this year and make TOUGH DECISIONS. It's not an easy task ranking your favorite shows, but it must be done. And in the end there will be one winner. Will it be Breaking Bad again (spoiler: yes it probably will), or will a new show join it, Community, and Dexter in the pantheon of shows that have won this prestigious title? We will find out. Me first when I rank the voting, the rest of y'all when I post it. On to the rules:

1. You will be fielding a list of your top fifteen shows of the year. Voting, of course, goes like so; list the shows from 1 to 15, the show you listed at 1 gets fifteen points, the show you listed at 2 gets fourteen points, and so on. That being said, if you didn't watch fifteen TV shows (or fifteen TV shows you actually liked enough to vote for) feel free to just leave the rest of your ballot blank once you run out. That is totally valid!

2. This is a list for your favorite TV shows of 2013, and by that I mean that every show you vote for must have been airing new episodes in its country of origin. So, say, if season two of Sherlock was airing in the US this year, it's still not eligible to be voted for because there were no new episodes in the UK this year.

3. Shows don't necessarily have to be scripted comedies or dramas. Last year we had the likes of Survivor and The Daily Show appearing! You can be flexible!

4. But there is an exception; no wrestling. We'll presumably have awards for that stuff, let's keep 'em separated.

5. And finally, you don't need to tell me you've edited your list up until I post saying that voting is closed, because that's when I'll start tallying everything. Then if you really, really want to make a change you should probably let me know, and I may or may not allow it.

Get voting. My ballot will be up in a few minutes. And then it will be edited in an hour, and then edited in another hour and so on until I give up and we hit deadline.

This year was probably a lot tougher for me to do because I actually watched less TV. You'd think it'd be the opposite but there were only a few more than 15 that I felt could have made the list, making it that much harder to rank them in some semblance of a coherent order.
Last year's list, if you're curious:

1. Justified

2. Parks & Rec
3. Community
4. Breaking Bad
5. Archer
6. Suits
7. Happy Endings
8. Game of Thrones
9. Strike Back
10. The League
11. Chuck
12. The Vampire Diaries
13. Ben and Kate

12. Supernatural [4pts]

13. The Newsroom [3pts]

14. Bates Motel [2pts]

15. Doctor Who [1pts]

Honourable Mentions to: Bob's Burgers, Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, Parks & Rec, It's Always Sunny and Fringe all of which I've watched and enjoyed and would probably have voted for on most of them, but haven't watched episodes aired this year yet for one reason or another (catching up having not watched previously, or the fact I like to marathon a season of that particular show before watching it). Adventure Time, American Horror Story, Chicago Fire, The Americans, Big Bang Theory, Once Upon a Time, How I Met Your Mother, Homeland, Arrow, Don't Trust The B****, Misfits, Castle, Hawaii Five-0 and Ben & Kate which had episodes this year, but there weren't enough or they weren't consistently good enough to make the list.

Dishonourable Mention to: Dexter for bringing new levels of awful to television and being the most insulting final season and finale that I've ever endured as a fan.
