MODERN FAMILY
Coming off last year's stellar debut, the ABC sitcom found an excellent groove between hilarious and endearing. With its outrageously charming ensemble and an Emmy for Outstanding Comedy, we can only ask: May we always be part of this Family?

THE WALKING DEAD
In a mere six episodes, the first season of AMC's horror hit put most new TV shows to shame. Get past the zombie kill shots, and what really makes Dead work is its still-breathing protagonists, the best cast of freaked-out survivors since that show about the island.

SPEAK NOW, Taylor Swift
Forget the guys she may or may not be singing about (Taylor Lautner? John Mayer? Kanye West?). The 21-year-old's slyly produced ­smash album is a surprisingly grown-up study of romance, regret, and heartbreak.

THE IMMORTAL LIFE OF HENRIETTA LACKS, by Rebecca Skloot
Skloot set out to discover how one dead woman's cells ignited a scientific revolution. The resulting book is part medical thriller, part ghost story, and impossible to put down.

MAD MEN
AMC's '60s-era drama has long operated at a slow boil, but this year reaffirmed that Mad Men is always worth the wait. Between Kiernan Shipka's breakout performance as Sally, the not-long-for-this-world Miss Blankenship, and Don's surprise proposal in the October finale, season 4 may be the series' best yet.
