The Emmys of All-Time: Animated, Drama, and Comedy Series Potential Candidates

Today we have our last preliminary round. And boy is it a doozy. I had to save the biggest categories for last, right? Of course! And these are some big categories. We'll start it off gentler, though, with the animated category. Just forty animated shows in contention which will need to be brought down to twenty-five. The drama and comedy series, however, will be represented with one hundred each. Those need to be brought all the way down to sixty.

Notes: As I've previously stated, this is simply preliminary. So any forgotten potential candidates can easily be added into the next round. This has already been done with the addition (in the next round) of Adam Richman and Man v. Food to the categories of Best Host and Best Reality Show, respectively. Also, Cindy Williams, Penny Marshall, Michael McKean, and David L. Lander have all been added to next round's categories of Best Leading Actress in a Comedy and Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy. As will The Brady Bunch to the Outstanding Comedy Series category. I simply forgot them. Alright, carry on!
