yet another though one, some great stuff this season

ixoy

Just voted there. Tough choices in some categories but I found I gave it those shows who are sadly no longer with us a lot because they deserve it and won't be around for the next awards.

miralize

I can see bias in some shows, but good survey.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

I found there was a lot of clear choices - there was only maybe 2 or 3 I genuinely struggled with is a contrast to previous years where I debated each vote, so either a) this TV season was a bit s**t compared to the last few or b) 1 or 2 shows were so damn good, that my choices were obvious...

I like to think it was b)...

Kiwi_knock

Tried not to vote Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones, but their dominance of most categories made it hard. I presume they will dominate the awards.

well they are debatably 2 of the best shows currently airing (both would make my top 10 list of all time), maybe 2 or 3 other shows nipping at their heels, obviously every has different tastes,

Dozen Wicked Words

Think breaking bad and GoT will walk most categories, but still waving my little pennant for Justified.

JP Liz V1

I think I voted for ones I didn't even nominate in the end

Headshot

Serious lack of Justified

On another note I had a bit of a giggle when I saw Revolution in the most over rated show, how is that even rated lol

Mark Hamill

I swear to Glob, if Adventure Time doesn't win best kids show...

:pac:

Firewalkwithme

Did the survey, didn't watch any of the shows though....... Except for Adventure Time which is excellent

Mr E

I just took a look at the results so far. Only a handful of categories have strong leaders at the moment. For example, Joffrey, despite comments on the "Character you love to hate the most" nomination thread, isn't way out in front like people predicted.

Best Drama is a 3 horse race.
Best Character is pretty even between 6.
Best New Show has 5 in the running.

Please don't abstain from voting because you think that some categories are foregone conclusions.

Skid X

Nice one. Get your votes in, and do vote for the shows/actors which you want to win.

There is no point coming here next week saying "I can't believe (my favourite) didn't win, I voted for something else because I thought (my favourite) was a shoe-in"

thats it, you gotta have the landslide victory:D

Mr E

Closes in less than 24 hours (Tuesday night at midnight).

Mr E

Final bump - 10 hours to go before the survey closes.

Really hope Southland wins some stuff!!

obliviousgrudge

Fringe and Continuum are brilliant, how did BB US get in there in front of BB UK?

Mr E

Maybe because BBUK is a sh*te melting pot of unlikeable fame-hungry morons whose greatest aspiration is to be in the Mirror/Sun or in lads mags, where in reality they might be famous for 2-3 months and then vanish forever?

You haven't watched BB in a while then.

Yeah, I know what you mean, I was mainly querying how Big Brother US got on there as I can't imagine many from here downloading and watching an episode every 2 or 3 days for 3 months.

Love BBUS, never miss it... So much better when they can discuss strategy...
Its up there with Survivor for me and I flipping love Survivor...
BBUK is a pile of piss in comparison, hence it not being nominated...

Mr.Prodston

I guess I can't say I wasn't warned but I missed the vote

I thought I checked the awards forum a couple of days ago, but this was directly in television I see, oops! Oh well I'll look forward to the results anyway.

Mr E

I just reopened it until 3am. You're welcome.

Cheers, better get cracking

Edit: Finished, thanks again.

Mr E

Results are in the OP. Thanks to everyone who voted.

obliviousgrudge

Great to see lots of Fringe in there

Thanks Mr E for running it

don ramo

breaking bad and game of thrones dominating, rightly so, unquestionably the 2 best shows currently in production

Disappointing that Southland barely got a look in.

Mr.Prodston

John Noble/Walter Bishop featuring prominently makes me happy

racso1975

obviously late to this and did not see nominations but surprised nothing for spartacus

Kiwi_knock

Happy that Banshee got some recognition, and good to see that Elementary did well. Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad deserved to do so well, as they had some memorable moments this year.

Dozen Wicked Words

Predictable results on the whole, although I didn't vote for a good few of the winners, no one can argue about them really. Thanks for organising it Mr E

Poochie05

Damn, I missed the vote! Was away
But happy enough with the results, though sad that Southland only figured in most underrated category...

ixoy

Bit like the Golden Globes in the sense that they were a bit predictable but, unlike that award, these were deserving.

Echoing the shame on 'Southland' - all of us saying it deserved better so surely it must have gotten a decent amount of votes.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Deserved wins for Breaking Bad and Game Of Thrones... No real surprises, but it was a solid year of television so that's to be expected...

Best Kids Show
1. Spongebob Squarepants
2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012)

Spongebob? Are you kidding me? What the hell are people watching? Spongebob hasn't changed since it came on the air in 1999, and while it was funny at first (and up to the film) its just old at this stage and the show holds no real depth.

People - introduce your kids to some quality tv shows: the likes of The Legend of Korra, Young Justice, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, The Amazing World of Gumball, and Regular Show all just blow Spongebob out of the water in every way - story, humour, characters.

adventure time and regular show are the best kids tv around

I'd argue that Gravity Falls is better but no doubt they're better than both Spongebob and TMNT by a mile.
