Yesterday saw Supernatural run away with an easy victory over Smallville whilst Once Upon A Time ground past Friends in one of the closest polls of the competition so far. As a result, the veteran Supernatural faces against one of the new shows on the block in a fascinating Quarter Final battle.
Today sees Nathan Fillion's Castle taking on Sarah Michelle Gellar's Buffy in a tough round to call, whilst Hawaii 5-0 aims to sink SpoilerTV's origin show LOST. Which will win here is also a tough call!

ReplyDeleteCastle and Lost for me
ReplyDeleteThis was the cruelest one yet! Hard a hard time deciding, but ultimately went with Buffy and Lost. Still love H50 and Castle, though!
ReplyDeleteCastle and Lost for me!
ReplyDeleteLost :)
ReplyDeleteCastle, although have only watched about 6 episodes so far and LOST, since nearly nothing would sway my vote way from it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise! lol
ReplyDeleteHawaii and castle
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Lost for me.
ReplyDeleteSorry Hawaii Five-0, but it will always be LOST for me.
ReplyDeleteYet again no contest.
ReplyDeleteAs good as Castle is, Buffy is just superior to it in every every aspect. Then again Buffy is superior to 99% shows to have ever aired.
In second, yet again Lost is also one of its kind.
Any poll that results in The OC beating The Wire is not a poll I can continue to participate in. Come on.
ReplyDeleteIt's called democracy. I've never seen The Wire, and whilst I'm sure it's a great show I'd only seen The OC so I voted for it.
ReplyDeleteHow many of your Wire friends did you ask to vote in the poll?
I posted the poll on a OC Fan site so the fans of the OC could vote.
Did you post it on a Wire fan site?
Lost for me!!! The Best Series EVER!!!!
ReplyDeleteBuffy and LOST - two of the greatest shows to ever air.
ReplyDeleteCastle and Hawaii 5-0 -- really...? :|
Lost. Lost. And guess what? Lost again.
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Lost for me.
ReplyDeleteI said it last year and I'll say it again - even Nathan Fillion would probably vote for Buffy.
ReplyDeleteI really love Castle, but there is only one show for which I would vote against Buffy. And this is Supernatural! So Buffy got my vote !!!
ReplyDeleteCome on, Castle is winning over Buffy? What!?
ReplyDeleteCastle & Hawaii-Five-0
ReplyDeleteSadly, I haven't watched a lot of Buffy episodes, so Castle gets the vote.
ReplyDeleteAnd Lost, of course.
Come on people!! Buffy NEEDS you to be strong!!
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Lost!! Nothing against the other two, but Buffy and Lost were brilliant.
ReplyDeleteYou would like Buffy. There's even a bit of Nathan Fillion in Buffy.
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Lost.
ReplyDeleteLost, Lost, and Lost. That's it.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I loved Buffy, there's no way I'm voting against my all time favorite show. So, Castle for me. Anytime.
ReplyDeleteLost & Buffy for me!
ReplyDeleteJust one more time! Lost & Buffy
ReplyDeleteI'm shocked Klutzy,i can't believe you didn't vote for Castle! :)
ReplyDeleteI should hope so! ;)
ReplyDeletewe have a lot of Lost voters where were they last year? Not complaining tho!
ReplyDeleteBUFFY!........Really?
ReplyDeleteBuffy? How do we get along?
ReplyDeleteCos We do!!! lol
ReplyDeleteCASTLE !
ReplyDeleteLOl,what couldn't think of anything better to say,lol...... :)
ReplyDeleteLol! Hey your getting to know me a little too well! :)
ReplyDelete:) hahahahahahahahahahha ! ;)
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Lost. I love Castle, but there isn't any show I would vote against Buffy for. Best show ever made to this day, in my opinion. Simply brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI will refrain from voting today :)
ReplyDeletethis has been the fastest start to any day of the competition. Both polls are heading towards a huge amount of votes! The question remains, can Castle and LOST keep on doing so well?
ReplyDeleteCastle!!
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Hawaii 5-O for me.
ReplyDeleteI won.
ReplyDeleteBuffy fans, we had a nice run! I hope we can at least make Castle fans sweat a little :D :D
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that. I would definitely like it then :)
ReplyDeleteCastle is a fun show, but ultimately it's just a procedural with a charismatic lead, and nobody is gonna be teaching college courses about how it revolutionized genre TV.
ReplyDeleteAaaaannnnd, Stana Katic is quite lovely, but lets face it, the combined chick power of SMG, Aly Hannigan, Charisma Carpenter, Emma Caulfiled and Eliza Dusku leaves Castle in the proverbial dust.
Sooooooo......
Buffy
H2O v Lost is no contest at all.
Seriously.
Buffy & Lost :)
ReplyDeleteLost, simply put, it's amazing
ReplyDeleteLike we don't know who your waiting for,lol...... :D
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Lost
ReplyDeleteHe's in Lost, too, of course. Nathan Fillion has a part in all these shows except Hawaii 5-0!
ReplyDeleteCastle is light fun and very well done, but Buffy is just more entertaining to me and FAR more original for its era.
ReplyDeleteI obviously I prefer Hawaii 4-8-15-16-23-42 to Hawaii Five-O.
I watch Hawaii Five-O and can enjoy it, but last year was a big step backwards to me honestly. Whereas LOST is one of the arguably best shows ever on TV. Period.

ReplyDeleteBuffy + LOST
ReplyDelete:-) I´ll never forget those numbers! I agree, Lost is one of the best and most original shows ever. It will always get my vote.
ReplyDeleteYeah, he was a guest star, I think, but I didn't know he was in Buffy too.
ReplyDeleteAnd there's still time for Hawaii 5-0. Who knows? :)
Lost of course :)
ReplyDeleteLost. No doubt.
ReplyDeleteCBS tried to get the new Lost with the Hawaii 50 remake but all they got is a weak acted show filmed in Hawaii.
Lost will never die. It was a WORLWIDE megahit.
I don't think that's fair. Hawaii Five-O is firstly re-imaged. It's producers are also former/current Bad Robot writers and executive producers. -It is that it isn't that far removed from a Bad Robot work, except that it doesn't have supernatural phenomena or budget, in fact Hawaii Five-O has the looks and isolated location of Lost by filming in Hawaii, but really it is a lot like Alias. (minus the Rambaldi-Fringe stuff), which is one of those BR shows K and O worked on (:
ReplyDeleteI agree that Lost is better, but it's partially because of the large cast, genre blending in having mystery-fringe elements, which is a preference and not necessarily bad.
He plays a bad guy in Buffy so it's different. It is interesting that he's been in several of these. I didn't know he was in LOST. I'm seeing a Fillion TV domination in the future.
ReplyDeleteJust curious - no judgment intended, but have you seen Buffy?
ReplyDeleteOne of the best written, most intelligent and downright entertaining shows ever made VS an exposition heavy police procedural - And the cop show is winning?!? It just goes to show that people has short memories. If the currently airing show will always win these polls, it just makes a mockery of the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteHe played Kate's husband, Kevin. She left him, silly girl.
ReplyDeleteNo i haven't,not yet!! But to set the record straight,Tony is my very good friend,i was giving him a hard time about it but it was all in good fun! We tend to do that we each other! Just wanted you to know that. :)
ReplyDeleteWow,nicely done everyone!
ReplyDeleteUnpopular opinion: Buffy & H50 for me. ;D
ReplyDeleteDid I just read that Farscape and Charmed lost? Shame on you voters, shame on you.
ReplyDeleteNot questioning your vote or your comment. I was just curious. Given several shows you like I think you would enjoy Buffy, probably season 2 on more than season 1. I would be interested in your opinion if you decide to watch it.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to get into it before the new season starts? I don't remember why i never watched it,it was probably due to another show..When i do i'll let you know! I know you weren't judging me.
ReplyDeleteLaura, if you decide to watch Buffy, look at nikkistafford.blogspot. She has a rundown of each episode.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda,i'll be sure to check it out!
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
ReplyDeleteA cop procedural(albeit an enjoyable and hilarious one) winning against Buffy - pretty much THE best show ever created is...sad.

Castle won over Buffy? Lame poll is irrelevant now.
ReplyDeleteWhy?
ReplyDeleteI'm with Darth on this one. I love Lost and would have voted for it no question - but Hawaii Five-O is one of the few "cop" shows that I can even stand to watch and it's not just about the scenery, the story lines have been entertaining and the comedy mixed with drama has been solid. I have no complaints.
ReplyDeleteAh, thanks. Kate did always annoy me with her bad decisions.
ReplyDeleteI'v Watched Buffy a long long time! But Well done to you @Dahne for persuading @laura3341:disqus to see the Light! lol!
ReplyDeleteLost always
ReplyDeleteYeah, no way Castle is better then Buffy
ReplyDeleteilike.serie.hawai.five
ReplyDelete"Castle" finished ahead of BtVS??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's nuts.
ReplyDeleteaka "wrong and wronger"
ReplyDeleteOh i know this is all for fun and I was just making a joke that reflected my feelings towards the two shows. Now I know this isnt a scientific poll or anything but i imagine notifying a particular fan site composed of thousands may skew things a bit....Not sure that really does the poll justice, does it? Seems a bit unfair unless the other fan site is notified as well. Does it really reflect the views of the people here? Stuffing the ballot box to get a particular result takes all the air out of this.....
ReplyDeleteWell it's how every TV Show Poll that has ever existed on the Internet has been done. Of course people are going to contact their friends and get them to vote and to contact fellow fans.
ReplyDeleteThat's how all polls on the internet work.
Come on, Buffy should be running away with this! Buffy had some of the best writing and some of the most talented actors around.
