Name n shame.

Ah to be fair, quite a few who didn't submit entries also got really involved in the thread, and thank you for that. Twas a lot of fun.

But now I'm retired, that was my magnum opus.


(Yeah, yeah I'll probably be back in a couple of months lol)

Too many people voted against shows because they had never seen them.

Booooooooooooooo.

Shenanigans.

Well... I hope some of ye will stick around and try out some of the other games the forum has running currently or in a few short weeks

I'd just like you all to know when this thread started I joked about nominating Gilmore Girls. But that wasn't me who actually did it!!
I was the one who nominated OITNB though.

Can confirm that BuileBeag is telling the truth

appledrop

Yipeeeee Father Ted won!

Go On Go On Go On Go On Go On Go On!!!!!!!!!

I have to admit I tapped out when Chernobyl got beaten by Blackadder

Voted for breaking bad, would have wanted sopranos or wire but delighted for father ted.

I never thought it would have got it.

True warrior.

Cream always rises to the top.

Hopefully it gets the recognition it deserves now and takes off in America and Bollywood’s areas of importance.

Can officially vouch for utopia. On the last episode now. Very good

Tell me how

And too many voted for shows even though they had seen them (I'm looking at you Breaking Bad voters) which is equally frustrating.

triggermortis

Thanks Necro, that was a serious amount of work you put in.
First time on this part of boards and it helped a few slow days at work pass.

Once you're in you can't get out.

You should join one of the sheep games, they're good craic. Clarabel is running one called sweet sheep at the moment. Go on... You know you want to.

I've downloaded a fair few TV shows as a result of this thread. West Wing is next.
