Lost Season 2

Pardon the Interruption S3 (Tony's "Vacation", bear on the trampoline, Time-Time-Tony)

BTW Groucho, I will add descriptions for my recent rounds later (when is your cut-off time to do this?)

thirtysomething s3 (Michael's defining season)

Late Night with David Letterman, Season 5 (85-86; Cher calls Dave an a__hole, GE Corporate Handshake, 1st Top Ten, MonkeyCam, Fugitive Guy)

Groucho, would you please update my picks with descriptions? You can just cut and paste:

Sunday: Arrested Development, Season 1
Monday: The Wire, Season 1
Tuesday: Mr. Show, Season 1 (“Ronnie Dobbs”, “Senator Tankerbell”, “Pit-Pat”, Imminent Death Syndrome”, “National Entitlitus Foundation”, “Renouncing ho-mo-sin-uality”)
Wednesday: Homicide: Life on the Street, Season 3 ("Crosetti", "Every Mother's Son", "The City That Bleeds/Dead End/End Game" w/ Steve Buschemi, "Colors" w/ Bruce Campbell & "The Gas Man" w/ Bruno Kirby)
Thursday: Twin Peaks, Season 2 (Laura’s killer revealed/BOB/Windom Earle/The Black Lodge)
Friday: The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr., Complete Series (Bruce Campbell’s Sci-Fi Western)
Saturday: Carnivàle, Season 2 (From Los Moscos to New Canaan / Some questions are answered; others are raised)

Good one, that's one show I didn't think of.

Late Night with David Letterman, Season 1

Description: Includes the on-air fight between Andy Kaufman and Jerry Lawler.

I would call it a miniseries, as would the IMDB.

Ruling?

Oh yeah ... go ahead and give me the trophy. Round #7:

The A-Team - Season 2 (Colonel Decker replaces Colonel Lynch, Hannibal has a plan, B.A. refuses to fly, Murdock breaks out of a mental hospital, Faceman charms some women)

das

This one was a tough call, but I'd feel lost without it:

Saturday: The OC, Season 1 ("Welcome to the OC, Bitch.")

Come to my network!

Violence! Profanity! Nudity!

Good times, Good times

Disclaimer: There is no Jimmie Walker on this network

I'm glad I didn't have exactly the same idea you did because losing my season of Late Night would have been a real bummer.

Notes

Cut-off times for picks, descriptions, etc. is 9am Pacific tomorrow mornin g (10/6). The voting will start sometime tomorrow once I figure out the brackets, etc.

I consider "I Love the 80's" a regular series, since they've done several of them (not counting the other decade shows).

My ruling is that you are full of sour grapes. I love the 80s has 10 episodes; other shows, such as the Office, are even shorter. If this is a miniseries, so are all of the reality shows. There is only one season of Wonderfalls, so is that a miniseries?

Thank you Groucho

I recognize your sole authority to make such decisions and thank you for your prompt attention to the matter.

Heh, after complimenting the pick, I actually have to say I consider it a miniseries. The follow-ups are more like sequels than a typical series. Best Week Ever is a series, I Love The... is a series of miniseries. But at the same time, I don't really care. I actually think miniseries should have been allowed. As for number of episodes, there have been plenty of miniseries with 10 episodes.

My so called life the complete series

Look in the mirror. I'm not the one making rash accusations. Instead, I am the one who has pointed out a duplicate pick in a prior round. My interest was in getting a fast ruling on what I believed was a legitimate controversy so you could make an alternative selection as quickly as possible. Excuse the heck out of me for my concern.

Wonderfalls would most definitely not be a miniseries because there was clear intent to continue the series to a normal length. Cancellation due to ratings prevented this from happening. Other series are really tough calls if you ask me. I don't understand what would preclude a person from taking that Galactica remake that came out in a miniseries at first. It would seem to me that the fact they created regular seasons with the same cast (from what I understand -- I'm not a fan) that you'd have to look at the "miniseries" retrospectively as not in fact being one. Throw in the British show issue (that their shows are shorter in duration), and the rule is a nightmare waiting to happen if you ask me. It isn't my rule, though. The sponsor of the contest made the rule, and he has the right to make a ruling.

I am with you in that I don't really care. I have explained my motives well enough, though.

Saturday: You Bet Your Life Season 1 1950-51

Please, gentlemen, keep it civil. Save the trash talk for the next "Reality Shows Suck!" thread.

Side note: Damfino is now officially our WINNER!

Yeah, I put off picking it because I wasn't positive it would qualify, but I think I wanted this show more than any other.


I almost didn't enter this because I wasn't convinced I could come up with enough shows, but now I'm almost ready to extend the game & pick another 7. There are a ton of great shows left.

I totally agree on both counts. I was worried about eligibility, and I'd love to just keep picking shows.
