This year of TV was dominated by the Drama series across the platforms. Be it the HBO hurricane called Game of Thrones, AMC's Better Call Saul, or the Netflix powerhouse Orange is the New Black which is finally now in the category it should have always been.

After the big sweep by Breaking Bad at last year's Emmy, this time, when people thought the turf has finally opened for all, there has never been a clearer front runner in each category. That front runner is Mad Men. The honour might come to them after the series concluded on a high note and Coca Cola's most iconic commercial. Jon Hamm's Don Draper will finally take that shining trophy home.
