On the second day of voting, there were a few surprises in store, with some shows over performing my personal expectations, whilst others have failed to impress anywhere near the levels you would expect! It has made for a day of voting where the three winners all won by a comfortable margin...
As a result, it has become clearer that whoever you support, you need to be spreading the word amongst fans to be voting for them too, or you could find several big STV shows going home empty handed come the final results!
Today sees three tough to call polls, with firstly the six most nominated TV episodes for 2011 battling it out. Shows such as Castle, Supernatural, Fringe and House all see more recent episodes nominated for the title, whilst Vampire Diaries and Game of Thrones are episodes from the first half of the year! Who will win? That is to be decided now!
Secondly we have the most anticipated TV show of 2012 poll, with five shows set to air not too far into the new year battling it out for a chance to claim their first STV award before they have begun!
Finally, six shows which began in 2011 are battling it out in the Best New TV Show category, with a wide range of shows hoping to take home that crown!
This is it. The final competition of 2011 continues.
Let the battle commence!

I voted Fringe for best TV episode, for Alcatraz, and then finally for Game of Thrones as Best New Show....
ReplyDeleteOUAT is the best new TV show!
ReplyDeleteHouse MD 20 Vicodin
ReplyDeleteSMASH
Homeland
I voted Fringe for best TV episode - Those We've Left Behind
ReplyDeleteFringe (Surprised ATWLB was the episode though, IMO there were much better episodes)
ReplyDeleteAwake
Homeland
Confession:
ReplyDeleteI'm very apathetic toward the choices for best episode and most anticipated show. Each entry in the "best TV episode" category had some great individual performances but as whole episodes none were really that special. As for "most anticipated new show," if two of them survive the season without getting pulled or cancelled, I'll be very surprised.
The one tough call is Homeland Vs. Game of Thrones in the new series category.
My picks:
"As I lay Dying" - The Vampire Diaries
"Alcatraz"
"Homeland"
Game of Thrones - Baelor (although I was tempted to go with SPN - Death's Door!)
ReplyDeleteAlcatraz (another close one since I'm eager to see Awake)
American Horror Story (ANOTHER close one! It was either AHS or GOT!)
Lol, that was tough!
Best TV episode - Castle Kill Shot , Most anticipated show - Alcatraz and Best new show - Game of Thrones
ReplyDeleteFor me:
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones - Baelor
Alcatraz
Person of Interest
Voted for Deaths Door. Just wonderful, top quality TV.
ReplyDeleteThe Vampire Diaries - As I Lay Dying
ReplyDeleteAlcatraz
Game of Thrones
Same, Adam, ecept "Person Of Interest' got my Best New Show vote.
ReplyDeleteGreat show, and I love all the nods to Fringe in it and with the guest stars.
I voted for Death's Door. I still believe it had Emmy quality acting. It won't win any awards. They are on the CW. That doesn't change what I saw.
ReplyDeletevoted supernatural - deaths door ( although the vampire diaries episode was amazing)
ReplyDeleteawake
once upon a time
Fringe - "And Those We Left Behind" y en Best New TV Show Game of Thrones
ReplyDeleteCastle's "Kill Shot" was an easy choice for me in the first category, and Once Upon a Time was equally so in the last - that being said, I haven't had a chance to see an episode of Homeland or American Horror Story yet, both of which seem to have gained a ton of fan support
ReplyDeleteDidn't vote for poll two or three... Don't know any of those shows. For the first one, I voted for Death's Door. Excellent episode, definitely one of the best this season.
ReplyDeleteIt was hard to choose the first one between Castle and TVD, but Stana's acting skills made me vote for Killshot, she was amazing on that episode. The other votes went for Alcatraz and Once Upon a Time.
ReplyDeleteI went with Deaths Door, Alcatraz, and nothing.
ReplyDelete"And Those We Left Behind", Awake, and American Horror Story.
ReplyDeleteI voted for both castle's kill shot and supernatural's deaths door (its a tie but if i had to choose between the two i would choose death's door probably). I voted for most anticipated Awake (only because im a very big fan of jason issacs). Both stories are good and characters but Awake has that. Alcatraz was my 2nd and finder is my 3rd. Lastly I voted for Person of interest as best new show. OUAT is a tie with it but between the two i choose POi
ReplyDelete"Baelor" for Best Episode (where is my "Crawl Space" ?!?!?!?!?!), Awake and Homeland.
ReplyDelete1 "And Those We've Left Behind" - Fringe
ReplyDelete2 Awake
3 Homeland
(I ALMOST would've voted for Game of Thrones for the amazing, gorgeously made and unbelievably promising season 1, but after this sunday's episode of Homeland that show just blew up into one of the best tv shows I've ever seen... Claire Danes is absolutely beyond incredible, and Damian Lewis' storyline just keeps getting more and more twisty and intriguing! They really set up for a huge finale!!)
Ah, finally an easy day. I voted for Death's Door, a episode that left me howling mad and surprisingly emotional. It's not often episodes make me this tense or invested. Bobbbbbyyyyyyy! As for the other two, I haven't heard of a few of the shows in the most anticipated and the others don't put me in a tizzy. I abstain. I vote none of the above for the new shows. Again, I feel like I am missing out with Homeland. Must find a dl soon.
ReplyDeleteTough choices.
ReplyDeleteHave choose between the episodes I have watched.
Only can't choose the last category because I haven't been watching those ones.
I voted for Death's Door. Fantastically written, directed & acted. One of Supernatural's best episodes.
ReplyDeleteDon't know any of the shows in the second poll so I didn't vote.
In the third poll I've only seen Game of Thrones & Once Upon A time, and I can take or leave both, so I didn't vote.
Please Dahne. It's a matter of homeland security...and you watching a show take off into awesomeness. Seriously, with Breaking Bad ending next season, Dexter being pretty damn awful this season (except for Deb, because she's as brilliant as Claire Danes' character this season!) and a bunch of shows either faltering or in constant threat of being cancelled (um Fringe...) it's nice to have a great show take off for once.
ReplyDeleteFor best episode I had to vote Supernatural. Death's Door blew me away on all fronts (performances, story, just everything). Much as I loved/enjoyed almost all of the eps in this category (Never been a House Fan.)
ReplyDeleteMost anticipated show....at this point in the season the only show on the list that *I* am anticipating is Alcatraz. The show left off the list that I'm looking forward to is The River. (Looking forward to checking out Awake, but I don't think it's going to air for very long. Looks well done but too complicated for HUGE gigantic network style numbers.
Until Homeland aired I would have said Game of Thrones easily. But, I had to vote Homeland.
What do you know...everyone I voted for had JJ Abrams name on it. Fringe, Person of Interest & Alcatraz.
ReplyDeleteI voted for Touch because... KIEFER
ReplyDeleteI cannot overstate how much I love Homeland at the moment - no show has gripped me so instantly and simply not let go, and I'm not even American. I adore Fringe and it leaves me on the edge of a nervous breakdown religiously, but Homeland hits a realism that Fringe doesn't touch; with Fringe we know its the writers with the insanely cool long-term plan, with Homeland its the characters playing the long game, and as a viewer I don't even know what board we're on!
ReplyDeleteIt's soooo hard. But tbh, I don't think any of those eps were the best of the year. Interesting they were all voted in to duke it out.
ReplyDeleteThis was a bit difficult to me because most new TV shows are AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteSo I Voted for Fringe {what's new ey??? ;P} , Alcatraz and American Horror Story...
♥
Fringe
ReplyDeleteAlcatraz
GoT
Sad to not see a Breaking Bad episode on there.
Best TV Episode - Death's Door (Supernatural)
ReplyDeleteA brilliant episode, even though we saw very little of the brothers in it. Seeing Bobby struggling to escape a Reaper in his own mind was amazing to watch and we also saw how Bobby truly is a warrior, fighting till the very end to be able to help his boys. As I Lay Dying (The Vampire Diaries) was a great episode too - fast-paced, emotional and tense - but I absolutely had to go with Death's Door here.
Most Anticipated TV Show of 2012 - None
The TV show that I was most excited for in the 2011 lineup - The Secret Circle - let me down terribly, so much in fact that I left it after only two episodes. So I've decided not to be all psyched about a new show until I have watched a few episodes of it.
Best New TV Show - Once Upon A Time
Sci-Fi/Fantasy shows are my favorite and I kind of like fairy tales - especially Snow White. So a show about fairy tales with Snow White at the center was sort of a dream come true for me.
Castle, Alcatraz, and Once Upon a Time :)
ReplyDeleteToday was a bit tough in the third category for me since Game of Thrones and Homeland are the 2 best new shows of 2011 by leaps and bounds...
ReplyDeleteBest Episode - Baelor (Game of Thrones).
Most Anticipated New Series - Alcatraz.
Best New Series - Game of Thrones.
I would have said Awake was most anticipated, but with all the production issues Alcatraz has passed it by for me.
Baelor was a rare perfect episode from start to end.
Game of Thrones noses out Homeland for me, but just barely. I think Homeland is one of the best new drama series I have watched along with Boardwalk Empire and GoT, but the scale and achievement of Game of Thrones is just larger than either BE or Homeland. The epic scale, the amount of detail in the made up world, and the difficult adaptation from the book makes it the best new series for me.
Best TV Episode - Fringe
ReplyDeleteMost Anticipate Show - Alcatraz
Best New Show - Homeland (though it was close with GOT)
I hear you about Most Anticipated..... other than Smash I don;t thin any have potential to be a hit and even Smash has the uphill battle of being a musical series!
ReplyDeleteI think 3 may survive, but they are all just barely leaning over the fence towards survival.
I think anything new on NBC has an uphill battle regardless of the genre. Smash has a lot of early buzz so it may catch on enough to build a sustainable audience but a show like Awake is something I consider DOA until I'm proven wrong.
ReplyDeleteHouse, Alcatraz and Once Upon A Time
ReplyDeleteSame as you, Mr. fringeobsessed :)
ReplyDelete1) Fringe - And those we left behind
ReplyDelete2) Alcatraz
3) Homeland Best new show of the decade
Yeah NBC is a double edged sword for new series. With such low numbers on all their series a new show probably has a better chance to survive with mediocre ratings, but even NBC's reputation is just so bad now that even if a new show of theirs is a hit for the network it will likely still have only "good" ratings compared to other networks.
ReplyDeleteWith such bad lead-ins and lead-outs they just have almost no chance of having a true legitimate"HIT" series on their network. I hope Awake or Smash prove me wrong but I am not holding my breath......
Best new show was sooo hard.
ReplyDeleteI went with Homeland in the end but could have easily gone with AHS or POI
Game of Thrones, Alcatraz and Homeland
ReplyDeleteMore touch choices, went with GoT for best episode, Alcatraz for most anticpiated and AHS for best new show.
ReplyDeletethis poll was hard to choose best episode i had 2 more choice house & spn and new show once upon a time.
ReplyDelete"as i Lay Dying" - Vampire Diaries
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones - best new show
as much as Once upon a Time is awesome Game of Thrones takes my vote.
and i voted for As I Lay Dying because it had everything. mainly because of Brotherly love.and Stefans dark side emerging.
fringe
ReplyDeletealcatraz
and once upon a time
Idem
ReplyDeleteAnticipated Show - Alcatraz
ReplyDeleteNew Show - Game Of Thrones
Haven't checked any of the others but I think I'll give Once Upon A Time a try during the holidays.
Best Episode - Death's Door
That was a surprise..Don't get me wrong,the episode was brilliant,definitely one of the best episodes of the season but I wasn't expecting a nomination.My guesses for best episode from SPN were Meet The New Boss,Hello Cruel World or an episode from season 6.I'm not complaining,just surprised. : )
Voting was easy enough for me today.
ReplyDelete1. Death's Door, no competition. I'm surprised that this is the Supernatural episode that got nominated (I was expecting 'Meet the New Boss'), but definitely not disappointed, IMO Death''s Door was as brilliant as it was heartbreaking, and I hope it gets the win it deserves.
2. The Finder. Purely because I don't think I've even heard of any of the other shows (except for Alcatraz, which really doesn't sound like my cup of tea).
3. Once Upon a Time. This was the toughest of the three for me, I was torn between OUaT and Homeland (neither of which I have actually watched, but both of which are on my hellatus watch list), but I eventually went for OUaT because I plan to watch that one first! :)
Fringe, Awake, Game of Thrones.
ReplyDeleteCastle, Alcatraz and Game Of Thrones! :)
ReplyDeleteGame of thrones
ReplyDeleteAwake
Homeland
Kill Shot, Alcatraz and Game of Thrones.
ReplyDeleteAlcatraz and GoT. But didn't vote for episode as I haven't seen more than two of them.
ReplyDeleteSnap! Me too
ReplyDeleteI really hoped Hello, Cruel World would make it as a Supernatural episode, IMO it was by far the best SPN episode of the year. Death's Door was amazing... but not amazing enough. Thus, I voted for Baelor.
ReplyDeleteFringe "And Those we Left Behind," American Horror Story, Alcatraz.
ReplyDeleteI hate that Revenge was not up for Best New Show, so went with Person of Interest, my second favorite. Death's Door won out for me over As I Lay Dying and picked The Finder, really enjoyed the ep that was on Bones last year.
ReplyDeleteSo half way through the day, and two of the polls are very winnable for anyone at the moment.
ReplyDeleteAs for one of the polls, it's looking a bit tougher to win!
I'm with you on Emmy quality but I would include writing & directing. I have talked to myself often asking if I had to pick between this ep and Swan Song what would it be and myself has not come up with an answer. ;) Judging the eps as a whole would go with Death's Door, but dang that ending to Swan Song just stays in my head.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't help but vote for TVD's "AS I Lay Dying" it's still my favorite episode..
ReplyDeleteI chose Alcatraz for my most anticipated series for 2012
and I was about to vote for OuaT for best new show but then my undying love for PoI got there first ^_^
Fringe-And Those We Left Behind....i do love Castle but Fringe..well there is no comparison for me, this episode of Fringe just blew me away.
ReplyDeleteAlcatraz-that is who i voted for but i am also looking forward to Touch,it really was a hard decision.
Homeland..This one was the hardest for i love Once Upon.Homeland,well for those who watch know exactly why Homeland is the one.Its to bad they didn't have best Drama,and best fantasy,then you could have had the best of both worlds,ha!
"Death's Door," "Alcatraz," and "Game of Thrones."
ReplyDeleteFringe, Alcatraz, American Horror Story!
ReplyDeletesame here!
ReplyDeleteI agree the first poll was tough, I'm not sure if you've watched American Horror Story, because I have, and that made it a hell of a lot tougher still aha
ReplyDeleteDeath's door, Alcatraz and Once Upon a Time (though that was really hard one)
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones.. and POI is developing nicely :)
ReplyDeleteBest TV Episode: Fringe - "And Those We Left Behind"Most Anticipated Show: AlcatrazBest New TV Show: Game of Thrones (sorry Once Upon A Time)
ReplyDeleteBest TV episode: "Kill Shot" (Castle)
ReplyDeleteMost Anticipated: N/A
Best new TV show: Once Upon A Time
Fringe + OUAT. I am not planning to start anything new so no vote in that category...
ReplyDeleteBest TV episode: "Kill Shot" (Castle)
ReplyDeleteMost Anticipated: Awake
Best new TV show: Once Upon A Time
Apparently I really need to watch Homeland and Game of Thrones - however, I've seen Once Upon A Time so it had to get my vote since I'm addicted to that show.
ReplyDeletesupernatural but tvd and god were also great.
ReplyDeletehomeland for new show.
Well said. NBC still needs that one gigantic hit to anchor its line-up. Maybe "The Voice" can help with that like AI does for FOX.
ReplyDeleteI voted Fringe for best episode, Awake for most anticipated show and Once Upon A Time for best new show. I was really tempted to vote for Game of Thrones for best ep & best new show!
ReplyDeleteGame Of Thrones "Baelor", Alcatraz, Homeland. So sad for Fringe and Once Upon A Time :-(
ReplyDeleteSame for me!!
ReplyDeleteI voted Supernatural for the best TV Episode.
