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.

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.

25 - Angel
29 - Roughnecks

Comments:

If Firefly had lasted a whole season it probably would have beaten out SAAB, but a lack of depth due to the number of episodes had it come up short.

Perhaps I'm a little to young for $6M Man, V hooked my as a kid.

I love Mr. Show, but it's not cult enough.

Battlestar Galactica is a classic.

I wish I could vote for Quatum Leap, but I never saw The Young Ones.

Re: Sci Fi / Cult TV Tournament : ROUND 1D
 

MATCH #25 - ANGEL
[I've never seen either show, but I've been a fan of Charisma Carpenter's ever since I saw her on Malibu Shores. My friend and I used to watch that together because of her and, to a lesser extent, Keri Russell.] :o

MATCH #26 - FIREFLY
[Never saw Space Above and Beyond, but I love Firefly so much that it doesn't matter.]

MATCH #27 - BLAKES 7
[I used to love Perfect Strangers as a kid (much to my dad's dismay), but seeing reruns on Nick @ Nite, I CANNOT STAND Bronson Pinchot. Ugh. Now I know what my dad was talking about. I've never even heard of Blakes 7, but I hate Perfect Strangers so much now that Blakes 7 wins by default.]

MATCH #28 - SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN
[I love Lee Majors. Heather Thomas was freakin' hot. V was freaky, I don't think I watched it very often because I thought it was scary.]

MATCH #29 - ROUGHNECKS STARSHIP TROOPERS
[I've never watched either show, but I love the Starship Troopers movie.]

MATCH #30 - 24
[Never watched First Wave, not even sure I've heard of it. I love 24.]

MATCH #31 - BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
[Never saw Land of the Lost, not even sure what it is. Sounds like a caveman/dinosaur/remote island kind of show. Battlestar Galactica was a childhood favorite.]

MATCH #32 - QUANTUM LEAP
[Never saw either show and I haven't even heard of The Young Ones. I'm voting for Quantum Leap because I have some friends who really liked the show.]

At least you're honest. ;)

Re: Sci Fi / Cult TV Tournament : ROUND 1D
 

MATCH #25 - I'm declining to answer. I've never seen Angel and I've only seen one episode of Hunger Force

MATCH #26 - SAaB, I only saw Firefly once, and it was pretty dreadful.

MATCH #27 - Blake, since Perfect Strangers isnt really a cult show (and Blake would own it anway)

MATCH #28 - Geeze, two Kenneth Johnson shows battleing to the death. Well, as much as I loved V, I'm going to go with the 6 Million Dollar Man.

MATCH #29 - Never saw either

MATCH #30 - Never saw either

MATCH #31 - Argh! And I was the one who nominated Land of the Lost too! But Galactica owns the Mashal family.

MATCH #32 - Sorry boys, but Dr Beckett owns you. Quantum Leap all the way.

MATCH #25 - ANGEL
MATCH #26 - FIREFLY
MATCH #27 -
MATCH #28 - SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN (loved V but the series was BAD)
