**Please forgive misspellings of names, of which I'm sure there are more than a few!
**Also my not wanting someone to win doesn't mean I think they did a bad job; just that they aren't who I want to take home the award for some reason or another.
**I did not list the super technical categories because I really don't have an opinion on them this year!
