Who doesn't love a man who can make you laugh? This season, television had no shortage of exactly that.

We complied a list of possible Emmy contenders for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, and it's up to you guys to help predict the ones most likely to get that nod come July 19 when nominations are announced. Will Zachary Levi finally get some Chuck love in honor of the show's final season? Or is 30 Rock's Alec Baldwin destined to sweep again?

There is a plethora of talented funnymen on TV today, and we have our opinions on who should land a coveted Emmy nomination this year. But this isn't about our opinion. This poll is all about yours.

Check out our gallery of Best Actor in a Comedy Series Contenders, and then shoot back over here to vote in the poll. There are only six spots on the ballot, and we hear that the Academy only uses our polls to make decisions. That might be a lie, but it's still fun to vote, right?
