Sci Fi / Cult TV Tournament : ROUND 1D
Time for the final set of matches in round 1!! Vote for your favorites!
a few notes to remember...
- All the placements in matches were picked at random... (I had my friend pick them at random from index cards) so please don't complain that it's isn't fair that show X for a first round match with show Y.
- All the shows in the tournament were nominated... I know some of them aren't true sci fi or cult shows in some peoples eyes, but they were nominated.

Perfect Strangers 
Cousin Larry would be so proud.
25. Angel
26. Firefly
27. Blake's 7
28. The Six Million Dollar Man (not including V or The Final Battle, V: The Series was a mess)
29. Mr. Show
30. First Wave (silly show but wins by default since 24 is neither Sci Fi nor Cult)
31. Battlestar Galactica (with apologies to Sid & Marty)
32. Quantum Leap (tough call ... sorry, Neil)

Although Mr Show is the better choice, I guess it's just not cult enough for me to vote for.

I will complain silently about a couple of the matchups but this round makes me realize I'm not a big a geek as I thought I was 
25 -
26 - Ugh this one's difficult. Love both shows but I think I'll go with SAAB if only for the hope that it will eventually get released on DVD.
27 -
28 - V
29 -
30 - First Wave. Another tough one. Due to a mixup, I have yet to learn how First Wave ended (if anyone wants to post spoilers go ahead) but part of me can't forgive the cougar madness of last seasons 24. Sebatian Spence edges Keifer slightly in the hotness dept so there's my vote.

I can't believe I could only vote on one of these--maybe I'm not that big a nerd afterall.

Man, Angel vs. ATHF and Mr. Show vs. Roughnecks. All shows I nominated. I keep going back and forth, but I guess I'll vote for the more sci-fi/fantasy type shows:
25 - Angel
29 - Roughnecks
25 - Angel
29 - Roughnecks
