I can't for the life of me follow the format of this tournament or final. Not sure if order is needed but I'll go;

The first 24 rounds were (mostly) pools of 8 with the (mostly) 2 most popular going through.

That gave us 51 semifinalists over rounds 25-30 that were mostly pick two from 8, and one pick three from twelve.

That produced us the 13 finalists above.

Great contest Liz, thanks. I've added a few new shows to my watchlist. I've not actually seen the winning show but I've heard its great.

Necro

Well thank fook for that. Great day for the parish to see Firefly toppled.

And by a worthy winner too.

Thanks for running Liz

Irish Aris

Ah, a great winner indeed!!

Thank you for running the competition Liz!!

odyssey06

A worthy winner.

I hadn't seen the other finalists but have only heard good things about Chernobyl.
Black Summer seems to have slipped under my radar.

I had voted for Firefly and Harper's Island in their rounds as they were great entertainment.
I voted for Band of Brothers as I think it had re-watchability and a timelessness.
I think it made an impact over and above the other series in terms of sales, even tie-in books and TV documentaries.

Pity we didn't get more episodes of Firefly though we did get Serenity.
So in alternative poll for cancelled too soon that would get my vote

aaronjennings

Honestly I'm just happy that some of my nominees made it past the first round, and even then they definitely weren't the ones I expected

Thanks for the game Liz, a tremendous amount of time and effort put in to it

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Enjoyed this game, and have a few new shows to check out, thanks Liz.

Haven't seen Band of Brothers, not sure it would interest me personally, but a great show I'm sure and the people have spoken.

the purple tin

I missed the final!

A worthy winner though, great show. Thanks for the contest Liz

Girly Gal

Great competition and alot of effort put into it. I haven't seen Band of Brothers, but, have only heard positive things about it, so I'm sure it's a worthy winner.

I remember watching it around 2005/6, I think it was on E4, it was quite interesting, it had a kinda dark atmosphere set in a picture perfect seaside town with rich beautiful people, who had dark secrets and there was a sense of impending doom. I can't remember how it finished, but, do remember being disappointed that there wasn't a satisfactory conclusion.

No it wasn't nominated by anyone or I didn't add it also I think I meant to catch it on E4 as I thought similar to American Gothic, thanks for the heads up
