Drama Series
Breaking Bad and Downton Abbey, you may be great and all, but if history plans to repeat itself (for the fifth time), we might as well give Mad Men the Outstanding Drama Series Emmy now and call it a night.
Drama Actor: Jon Hamm
Bryan Cranston, Bryan Cranston, Bryan Cranson and...Kyle Chandler. Though nominated every year since 2008, Hamm—who plays oh-so-seductive Don Draper—will compete again in 2012 (best of luck, Jonny!).
Writing for a Drama Series
Where to even begin?! Matthew Weiner and his writers earned three nominations in the writing category this year for three separate episodes, continuing a streak of wining every year since 2008 except 2011.
Drama Actress: Elisabeth Moss
Elisabeth—who, as Peggy Olson, went from secretary to Don's second-in-command—earned nominations in 2009 and 2011, as well as a Supporting Actress nod in 2010. January Jones also managed to score a nomination in 2010.
Supporting Actress: Christina Hendricks
With killer curves and a killer personality, it's no surprise Hendricks' turn as Joan Holloway earned her Best Supporting nominations in 2010 and 2011, with costar Elisabeth Moss also scoring one in 2010.
Hairstyling
It takes a village to coif Don and company's perfect locks. Which is why a team of five hairstylists earned the nom this year, continuing Mad Men's five year reign as Emmy's Best Hair winner. Our hats off to that!
Guest Actress: Julia Ormond
While Megan Draper's rendition of "Zou Bisou Bisou" may have had everyone talking, Ormond's portrayal of her distant mother caught the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences' eyes. She joins Randee Heller and Cara Buono (both nominated in 2011).
Cinematography, Single Camera
Chris Manley—who was nominated in 2009 and 2010—earned another nomination this year. Director of photography Phil Abraham previously won in 2008. Doesn't hurt that the people they're shooting are so gorgeous, we assume.
Guest Actor: Ben Feldman
What started as copywriting with a flare has earned Feldman (who plays Michael Ginsberg) a Guest Actor nomination, stealing the title from 2008, 2010 and 2010 nominee Robert Morse (who plays Bert Cooper).
Art Direction for Single-Camera Series
Christopher Brown, Claudette Didul and Dan Bishop earned the 2012 nom for bringing the years of '66 and '67 to life. In 2008, Mad Men's art direction won the Emmy and members of the team have also been nominated in 2009 and 2011.
Supporting Actor: Jared Harris
Poor Lane Pryce! The doomed character Harris plays on Mad Men may be off to that ad agency in the sky, but his work earned him an Emmy now instead of John Slattery, who had earned the nominations since 2008.
