The Primetime Emmys is one of my favorite days of the year. A night that celebrates great television? What could be better?
One thing I've always wanted to was a prediction ballot; see how many I could get right. I always just scream out who I thought would win when they would announce the nominees, but now I wanted to put some calculated thought into it. As I was doing it, I realized the people who I thought were going to win weren't necessarily who I wanted to win. So I decided to compare who I wanted to who I think will win.
