The American Film Institute has named its top films and television series for 2015.

The AFI lists their choices alphabetically so there’s way to tell which got the most votes, but it’s interesting to note that Star Wars: The Force Awakens made the the film list and Better Call Saul made the television list.

A special award was given to Mad Men – undoubtedly for its high level of quality throughout its seven season run. For the full list, follow the jump.
