Last week, we asked for Mashable readers to vote in polls to decide the best song, TV show, movie, sports moment, and video game of 2013.
After 30,000 votes across the polls, the results are in. Here are this year's champions of entertainment, according to your votes.
How big a hit was Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" when it came out? Spotify's Year in Review reports that it was streamed 1.5 million times in a day. The combination of Pharrell Williams' smooth vocals and the feel-good beat gave the song mass appeal, and it has remained a staple of 2013 all year long. Here are the top 5 vote-getters in our poll:
"Get Lucky" by Daft Punk feat. Pharrell Williams (8.8%)
"Royals" by Lorde (6.7%)
"Roar" by Katy Perry (5.6%)
"Wake Me Up" by Avicii (5.2%)
"Wrecking Ball" by Miley Cyrus (5.1%)
While it didn't capture a pure 99.1% of the vote, Breaking Bad won the poll for best TV show by a wide margin. After the show pop culture and saw over 10 million people tuned into it's thrilling conclusion, this result didn't come as much of a surprise to us. The shows that received the most votes were:
Breaking Bad (19.0%)
Game of Thrones (11.0%)
The Walking Dead (7.9%)
House of Cards (5.6%)
Modern Family (4.9%)
Alfonso Cuarón's Gravity achieved the dual success of being a record-breaking blockbuster and garnering critical acclaim across the board.

This was the play that took over the Internet, had non-sports fans talking about it and turned a previously unknown player into a campus celebrity. What originally looked to be nothing more than a missed field goal turned into one of the most improbable endings to a game in sports history, and it saw Alabama lose the No. 1 ranking they had held all season long. Here are the five moments that got the most votes:
Auburn's Game-Winning FG Return vs. Alabama (26.3%)
Andy Murray Becomes First British Man to Win Wimbledon in 77 Years (15.6%)

Rockstar's latest installment in the highly popular franchise broke several Guinness World Records within days of its release, and it won its category by the largest margin of victory out of all the polls.

Grand Theft Auto V (44.5%)
