Good idea, TV Adam! I think Wings and NewsRadio are both such underrated gems.

Best Actor in a Sitcom:

Dave Foley and Tim Daly. Can I write in Phil Hartman and the guy who played Antonio on Wings?

Best Actress in a Sitcom:

Crystal Bernard, with Maura Tierney in a close second.

Best Male-Comic Duo:

Joe and Brian from Wings. No contest.

Best Female-Comic Duo:

Helen and Fay (Wings)

Best Breakout Character:

Lowell from Wings. I like Antonio from Wings better though.

Best Sitcom:

Wings and NewsRadio

Best Romantic Duo:

Tie between Joe and Helen from Wings and Dave and Lisa from NewsRadio.

Best Series Finale:

New Hampshire (NewsRadio)

I was saving Phil Hartman for the Best Supporting Actor part, but then forgot to put it. I definatly think Mr. Hartman deserves an award for his portrayal of Bill McNeal.
