Last Day To Vote For American Comedy Awards: 'Anchorman 2 ...

If you haven't voted for your favorite stand-ups, comedy movies, TV shows and viral videos, today is your last chance. The American Comedy Awards, which will air on May 15, are open for public voting until Tuesday, March 18 at 11:59 p.m. ET/8:59 p.m. PT.

Categories include Comedy Film, Comedy Series, Comedy Special, Club Comic, Late Night Talk Show and more. While some of the most recognizable names in the field are among the nominees, the show promises to laud the comedic work that often goes unnoticed by other awards shows. For example, in the film category, Academy Award contender "Nebraska" faces tough competition from fan favorites such as "The World's End" and "The Heat."


The Alternative Comedy Series category features some of the most inventive shows on television right now with “Archer,” “Key & Peele” and “Portlandia” nominated amongst others. And the Club Comic and Viral Video categories feature the people that most of us spend our time talking about online.


Full list of nominees is below. To cast your vote before it's too late, visit NBC's American Comedy Awards site or the Facebook Voting App.
