Re: "Favorite" TV Show Tournament Round #2/Group #10 Poll

Match 1: No interest either way.
Match 2: Love me some King of the Hill.
Match 3: Never liked Married...with Children; always enjoyed The Andy Griffith Show.
Match 4: The Sopranos was actually the first TV series I bought on DVD in its entirety. Every time I hear accusations that it's overrated, I think about the episodes themselves and can't find a flaw.
Match 5: The Wonder Years is kinda strange for me. I was roughly Kevin Arnold's age when the show ran, but obviously his adventures took place years before I was born. So on one level, it's a show that goes to my own coming-of-age period, while on another, it really wasn't meant for my generation at all. Still, I always liked it.

Matchup #1 was very rough, Coupling is a tremendous show but B5 is my overall favorite.

Re: "Favorite" TV Show Tournament Round #2/Group #10 Poll

Holy fuck... the first four seasons of THE WEST WING is some of the best television of the last decade - and King of the Hill is beating it by 1 vote. PITIFUL.

...in your opinion. I never liked West Wing all that much and KOTH always cracks me up.

I think The Wonder Years has a chance to make it very far in this tournament.

Re: "Favorite" TV Show Tournament Round #2/Group #10 Poll

^True it is my opinion, but take a look at this stat: The series received the Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series in 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003. King of the Hill was good for a season or two, but I was worn out of it's humour pretty fast.... Yeah, lots of people think The Emmy's are a crock of shit, but WW holds up extremely well IMO.

And The Wire never won a single Emmy, so that show must be shit.
