LOS ANGELES, Dec. 11 (UPI) -- The American Film Institute has released its list of the 10 best U.S. movies and television series of 2006.
The cinema list included expected favorites such as "Borat," "Babel," and "Little Miss Sunshine" while "The Wire," "West Wing" and 24 made the television roster.
The awards will be handed out Jan. 10 at an AFI luncheon in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Times noted Monday while Clint Eastwood's new "Letters From Iwo Jima" made the list, the companion film "Flags of Our Fathers" was conspicuously absent. Also not making the cut was the acclaimed Martin Scorsese gangster flick "The Departed."
The Top 10 movies also included "The Devil Wears Prada," "United 93," "Dreamgirls," "Half Nelson," "Inside Man," and "Happy Feet."
The TV list was rounded out by "Dexter," "Elizabeth I," "Battlestar Galactica," "South Park," "Heroes," "The Office," and "Friday Night Lights."
