• Hannibal
• Bates Motel

Nope. I'm not researching that shit. How about favoute soap dog?

 

[DaveCinzano]

Nope. I'm not researching that shit.

TBF I've already done all the research

We could even broaden it out to:

Best TV Show Based on a Film Based on a Real Life Serial Killer

• Hannibal
• Bates Motel
• Wolf Creek

 

[DaveCinzano]

Best Unseen or Unheard Character
Favourite Fictional Locale

 

[krtek a houby]

Best imported tv show? Lots to chose from and can straddle different genres from Monkey to Borgen etc...

 

[belboid]

I thought I was going to get to vote for my favourite show. But I'm now meant to vote for four shows? That's stupid.

 

[maomao]

Best science fiction TV show surely. The trekkies will bog themselves down arguing over which version and something proper will win. Like Quantum Leap.

X Files

 

[maomao]

X Files

But that's a police procedural!

 

[Indeliblelink]

Have we done best game show yet?

 

[Sprocket.]

Favourite traction engine owning steeplejack?

 

[belboid]

Best of whatever kind of show there is only twelve (or fewer) examples of so that one of these polls actually works properly.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Go vote here and stop moaning

 

[Badgers]

Best cartoon rabbit film?

 

[belboid]

Go vote here and stop moaning

That's perfect! Thank you

 

[quiet guy]

Favourite traction engine owning steeplejack?

Very niche but I'm sure it won't be long before Sky have a channel for it

 

[DaveCinzano]

Fred's dead, baby; Fred's dead

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Never noticed the percentages before, very interesting

 

[Sprocket.]

Fred's dead, baby; Fred's dead

So is Curtis Mayfield, sadly!

 

[scifisam]

But that's a police procedural!

Because of course TV shows can never fit in more than one genre.

 

[belboid]

Because of course TV shows can never fit in more than one genre.

I think it could probably fit Best TV Show Based on a Film Based on a Novel Based on a Real Life Serial Killer as well.

best british sci fi to narrow it down to a manageable poll. And Red Dwarf does count but doesn't deserve to win

Quatermas obvs.

Am I imagining things or was there a live version some years ago?

We could have a slightly more rigorous nomination process rather than 'name all the science fiction shows you can think of'. Three nominations required to make the poll and no more than three per poster.

Blakes 7 would win brit one so easy it's not worth doing the poll.
