36 votes so far, pretty good. If the votes keep pouring in I'll keep it open longer, if they slow down I'll end it later on today. Obviously some shows will have the same amount of votes, so I am going to use a random generator to determine which shows get in.


Also looks like Game of Thrones will head into the tournament as the #1 seed overall.

Damn... I should have finished reading the instructions. I jumped in made my choice for the best and hit save (single vote).

According to this survey, TV barely existed before 1980, and garbage like CSI Miami or Bones has the potential to be someone's favourite show of all time.

That's funny because I was born in 1980.

I voted, but pretty sure The League and Smallville are in there twice.

I get the feeling Game of Thrones is gonna win in a total rout because its the best and hottest show of the moment. Still not in the top 5 ever though. It can get there, but its not yet.

Wait...no Night Court? Damn it that show was responsible for me learning stuff I wasn't supposed to know about at an early age! It was awesome.

I would leave it open for more than 36 opinions. No rush, ...

I would add WKRP as a write in candidate if so many people would vote for that. Assuming you're running the tabulation here, and not on a website.

I'm not completely sold on GoT winning, it's not even the best show on today, that award goes to Breaking Bad. Besides it's impossible to vote for it to be the greatest ever when it's only ran 2.5 seasons and none of the storylines have been completed.

55 votes now.


I can do WKRP in Cincinatti as a write in, but it would need more then 5 votes(maybe more)

That goes for any other show that I didn't list.

Probably gonna set the matchups up later tonight. So get your last minute votes in.

Looks like the 4 #1 seeds are set. A couple shows still could make a late push and get that #1 seed.

Did you get all of those shows out of this sub forum? I know I've talked about a few that were on there.

Anyways, I voted for a bunch and I want Xena and Lost Girl added

and "V" and Dollhouse and Sarah Conner.
