Well then shouldn't we just do away with this whole day nonsense altogether and change it to round 1, 2, etc? Some voters would probably see the days and not assume they correspond immediately to rounds (some folks probably won't read all of the intro post).

I'm very happy with my list, got everything I wanted except for Sports Night.

I might lose because of the lack of Sci-Fi but I'm just not into it.

I especially love my first and last picks...I thought Das might go for PTI

Like Das, I would love to watch my schedule anytime.

tanman 10-05-05 02:22 PM

I'm so messed up now. I'm going to pick two if I can still pick a replacement. If now just count my first pick as my Saturday pick and disregard the second choice. It is up to you Groucho.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Season 5 - Trials and Tribbleations, Call to Arms, the Wormhole is mined as Starfleet abandon DS9.

Win Ben Stein's Money - Season 1

Not to cause controversy, because my goal is not to make people change picks, but since the picks are final I'll post this. I considered <i>PTI</i> very early (along with some other year-round shows), but I don't agree that it fits the season-based rules of the game. I also considered <i>The Prisoner</i>, but I believe that it's a miniseries in concept (although naming conventions prevent any real certainty). I didn't say anything at the time, because it's not worth arguing over, but that's why I didn't pick either of those. I'm fine with others having them, though.

I see your point but Letterman would also fall under this as well.

That is why both the guy who chose season 5 and I expressed worry about whether or not it would be allowed. In the end, you have to make the pick and get the ruling.

Supermallet 10-05-05 05:06 PM

No word yet on Dark Shadows?

mdc3000 10-05-05 06:18 PM

I think you're on your own. I know I never watched it, and you were the first guy to pick it.

Supermallet 10-05-05 06:32 PM

I meant on a ruling. Since it was a soap opera, it didn't have seasons like a regular show. I'd be willing to just say "The second year (first appearance of Barnabas)," but I don't know if that would be in line with the rules.

Ah. I think the guideline established by those of us who took Letterman and PTI is to do the best you can to determine what a season is and then choose the one that applies.

Supermallet 10-05-05 07:51 PM

Okay, forget Dark Shadows.

My new final pick is: Tiny Toon Adventures, season 1
