A new poll has named “America’s Favorite TV Star,” and the winner is the same person who won it last year, UPI reports.

Topping the list in the Harris Poll is "NCIS" star Mark Harmon, who plays Navy cop Leroy Jethro Gibbs on the CBS drama. The online poll surveyed 2,237 people.

Here’s the complete top 10, which, while it contains an abundance of talk show hosts, is noteworthy for the absence of reality TV stars:

1. Mark Harmon, "NCIS"
2. Ellen DeGeneres, "The Ellen DeGeneres Show"
3. Jon Stewart, "The Daily Show"
4. Bill O’Reilly, "The O’Reilly Factor"
