PLEASE NOTE: My category placements do not entirely match up with the Emmys. "Fargo" and "American Horror Story: Coven" are competing in the drama series races because I do not have separate races for miniseries. Additionally, while I did finish the entire "Breaking Bad" series earlier this television season, I have chosen not to include them in my nominations this year because I did not want to nominate the series for only eight episodes, since it would not be reflective of how the series would have performed throughout the course of its run. It also allows room for other shows to be recognized since, like I'm imagining it will next week at the Emmys, "BB" would have dominated here. Don't worry, there is more than enough quality programming to make up for a lack of "Breaking Bad." However, there is one other show that I caught up on previous seasons this year that I have included in my nominations for the first time this year because it is returning for more seasons. That would be "Shameless." Since I just finished catching up earlier this summer, it does not have any previous nominations outside of this season, but since it is returning for a fifth season this winter, I included it in this year's nominations.
Without further ado, here are the nominees for the 2014 TV Evannies...
