The time is nearly upon us as we kick off what is sure to be a divisive topic.

64 first round matches. Pick one of the TV Shows and decide which you prefer. Give a reason. TV Shows where no reason are given won't be counted. All valid posts will be thanked. First to 7 votes goes through to the next round. Depending on volume of voters/contributors, this may increase exponentially by 1 vote each round. One vote per player per match. Anyone can vote, even if you hadn't submitted your entries. Battles will last as long as is necessary for a TV Show to gain 7 votes.

When does this begin???

I would have had NCIS in there as the first 10 seasons were excellent but it all went massively downhill when Côte de Pablo left the show

I don't know if you still watch NCIS but she is returning to the show in the new series that's just started to air in the US.

That could entice me back. I havent watched it since about 5 episodes in with the new blondy girl. I just didnt take to her at all and it ruined the whole show for me to the point I gave up on it entirely. That and everyone was starting to get a bit whiny. Abbi was becoming insufferable. It was like the whole direction of the show changed. It used to be case driven with a little bit of backstory and then after a while, the cases were the backstory and it was all character driven and none of the characters were really that interesting. The cases were getting wrapped up in about 10 minutes and we were learning about how Abbi's long lost mothers sisters brothers auntie needed a new crotch and Abbi knew a nun who was caring for this guy who was on deaths door who had a perfectly working crotch he didnt need anymore and it was like a match made in tv hell

Having said that, if anything could get me back though, Cote De Pablo would probably be it. A Michael Weatherly return would seal it especially now that Abbi is gone. I guess I'll give it a go

I can't see him returning to any show any time soon after the stories of his sexual harassment of a co-star and the huge settlement that one of the networks had to pay her earlier this year.

Necro

Ok folks, are you ready?




Because...

Round 1 starts tomorrow morning at 11am!!!

See y'all there.

I can't promise I'll be on all day, but I'll try to be on all day. Full attention until the conclusion of the tournament from Wednesday onwards though

You never know, they're not axing Bull as a result and I think he said that he'd like to come back to NCIS as Ziva has returned.

Tony and Ziva have a daughter too.

Has Abi left?

Yeah Abbi left, that's why Ziva can return (I read a good few years ago that Abbi was the reason why she left).

They also seem to be slowly writing Ducky out of the show.

No!

Necro

All this talk of NCIS, I hope someone nominated it :P

2 hrs left folks. There's likely not a hope in hell we'll get through round 1 today, but sure we'll give it a lash anyways.

Niska

Odds on the final being Mrs Brown's Boys vs Bosco?

Necro

Right...



Just getting the first match ready, let's get started, shall we?

Electric Nitwit

When we're voting, relevant gifs count double, right?

Necro

Let's start with something somewhat interesting shall we? Though it remains to be seen if it will be competitive.


The Office (US)





VS



Fair City






First to 7 votes advances, and reminder to give a reason. Let's start as we mean to go on folks!

Toto Wolfcastle

Jesus. The Office, obviously, because it’s actually entertaining and well acted.

Krombopulos Michael

The Office (US) The Jim - Dwight pranks are memorable even years after watching.

Electric Nitwit

Ha ha, I have to vote Fair City in memory of my nanna, she loved it!

I fully expect it to lose though

I don’t watch either

The Office because I have never seen a single episode of fair city.

banie01

The office!

That fairly shítty is even nominated is a travesty :pac:

quickbeam

Fair City? Pfft! The Office, obviously. It's genuinely funny.
