Hey guys,
Day one is over and the competition has officially gotten underway. The results of our first set of polls has seen Game of Thrones triumph over The Big Bang Theory with a convincing 66.39% of the votes, as well as Pushing Daisies perhaps surprising Lie To Me with a strong showing to win with 54.67%
Today sees two more current and two more finishes shows doing battle for a place in the next round.
Firstly we have FOX's former smash hit Glee which over the last season has seen quite a drop in viewing figures but still carries a large online fan base. Glee is taking on the critical behemoth that is Breaking Bad, which begins the first half of its final season in the next month.
Secondly sci-fi epic Farscape is challenging the much loved Friday Night Lights to become the second finished show through to round two. Will the fact Farscape has been off the air for 9 years affect its chances against a show that only ended last year? Only time will tell...
If you haven't joined in the competition before, remember that all you need to do is simply select which show is your favourite in both of the polls below. Easy!
