AFI's Top 10 TV for 2010

This year's top 10 TV shows from the American Film Institute, as chosen by their jury of scholars, film and television artists, critics (how's that for credibility, huh?).

Unlike other Top 10 lists, AFI actually honors these shows via a special luncheon with the cast and its creative team. They also hold a special week-long screening of these programs, including their Top 10 Movies of the year.

Anyway, AFI's chosen 10 for TV:

  • THE BIG C
  • BOARDWALK EMPIRE
  • BREAKING BAD
  • GLEE
  • MAD MEN
  • MODERN FAMILY
  • THE PACIFIC
  • TEMPLE GRANDIN
  • 30 ROCK
  • THE WALKING DEAD

AMC's three original programs (out of four) are all in here. AMC is the new HBO? And what in heaven's name is Temple Grandin?? Googling it up, as I've never heard of this TV program.
