Our users left no room for doubt when selecting winners for the 11th Annual Gold Derby TV Awards. Two shows dominated their respective fields: "Orange is the New Black" with six wins and "Breaking Bad" with five.

Netflix's "Orange" was the year's top nominee with 11 bids, so it may have come as no surprise that it was also the year's top winner, sweeping Best Comedy Series, Comedy Supporting Actress (Kate Mulgrew), Comedy Guest Actor (Pablo Schreiber), Comedy Guest Actress (Uzo Aduba, who also won the Emmy), Comedy Episode ("Can't Fix Crazy," the first-season finale), and Ensemble of the Year.

"Breaking Bad" also pulled off an impressive sweep, taking Best Drama Series for a record-tying third year in a row ("Mad Men" and "Lost" were also three-time winners), as well as a record-extending fourth Drama Actor prize for Bryan Cranston, a record-setting third Drama Supporting Actor victory for Aaron Paul, and a second consecutive Drama Supporting Actress award for Anna Gunn. "Ozymandias" also won Drama Episode of the Year.

That doesn't even count Cranston's second consecutive victory as Performer of the Year, which makes him only the second person to win that award twice, following Tina Fey (2008-2009).

Other programs struggled to eke out victories against the onslaught of "Orange is the New Black" and "Breaking Bad."

"Veep" picked up two awards: Comedy Actress (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), snapping Amy Poehler's three-year winning streak, and Comedy Supporting Actor (Tony Hale).

"The Big Bang Theory" won Comedy Actor for Jim Parsons. He has now claimed that category three times, tying him with Steve Carell ("The Office") as that award's biggest champ.

Among dramas, three other shows won one award apiece.

Last year's Breakthrough Performer of the Year, Tatiana Maslany ("Orphan Black"), took Best Drama Actress for the first time.

Allison Janney won Drama Guest Actress for "Masters of Sex." She also won that race at the Creative Arts Emmys last weekend, but while she's a five-time career Emmy-winner, this is her very first Gold Derby TV Award.

Drama Guest Actor went to Pedro Pascal for "Game of Thrones," which means there's at least one happy ending for the tragic Oberyn Martell.

Users spread the wealth in our longform categories. "Fargo" took Best Movie/Miniseries as well as Movie/Mini Supporting Actress for Allison Tolman, who also prevailed as Breakthrough Performer of the Year.

"The Normal Heart" picked up two acting wins: Movie/Mini Actor for Mark Ruffalo and Movie/Mini Supporting Actor for Matt Bomer.

Jessica Lange won Movie/Mini Actress for "American Horror Story: Coven." It's her second win for the FX anthology series, following her Movie/Mini Supporting Actress victory in 2012 for the first season.

Elsewhere, "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" won Variety Series for its first year on the air, though Jimmy Fallon's "Late Night" previously won in 2012. Before that, Conan O'Brien's short-lived "Tonight Show" won in 2010.

Amy Poehler and Tina Fey won Best Variety Performer for the second year in a row for hosting the Golden Globe Awards. They'll be back in January to host those kudos for a third time.

"Archer" won Animated Program for the second year in a row, while science program "Cosmos" won Best Reality Series.

See the complete list of winners below, and discuss the results in our forums.
