The STV Favourite TV Series Competition 2013 - It Begins Today - Submit Your Entries For The Competition!

12 Jun 2013

Share on Reddit
Update: 3rd July Nominations are now closed. We will be collating the responses and starting the competition very shortly.



Update: We're closing in on 1000 nominations now guys. Fantastic stuff. Keep spreading the word to get more people picking their favourites!
Also, 24 counts as a current show, as it's back from cancellation!

In 2010 a competition set SpoilerTV alight. Thousands of fans helped two Winchester brothers beat the Salvatore brothers to walk away with the title.

In 2011 Supernatural were pushed all the way in an epic two day battle that saw over 20,000 people help narrowly beat Fringe to claim a second title in a row.

In 2012 a new victor emerged, as Richard Castle stole the title away from the people of Storybrooke in a record breaking contest..

The battle is about to begin.

But first we need your help.

Out of the thousands of TV series there are, old and new, great or poor, we need just 64.

You can vote for your favourite two current TV series, and your favourite two finished TV series. The top 32 current TV series and the top 32 finished TV series will make the final 64, which will begin on July 1st 2013.

You have until June 24th to enter your submissions in the form below.

Remember, a current TV series is any show that has aired/will air new episodes after 1st June 2013. A finished TV series is any show that had aired its final episode by 1st June 2013. Therefore a show like Fringe would now be a finished TV series, whilst Game of Thrones would be classed as current.

One show I feel it worth to highlight. Arrested Development is being counted as a current TV series, as even though it aired all of Season 4 on May 26th, there is no reason to confirm one way or the other that the show is finished as of that date. If anyone knows of any other shows that are worth highlighting which category they fall under, then let me know by email (adamdharris@spoilertv.com) or on twitter (@AdDHarris)

NOTE: Only 1 Submission per person. If you try to submit multiple times ALL your submissions will be removed

Don't forget to cast your votes, spread the word of the competition, and most of all, tell us who you voted for in the comments below.

It's back. It's going to be bigger than ever.

Here we go....

    omg so excited!!! been waiting so long for this, i was away last year and missed the whole thing, was so surprised to see a new victor crowned.
    it hurts not being able to nominate fringe as a current show this year but its top of my list for finished shows, paired with LOST (i'm currently watching LOST again (for the 4th time) and it's still so good)
    current shows, my first nomination goes, as always, to supernatural. it may have decilned slightly in its quality over the years but its still much better (IMO) than a lot of other shows out there.
    second nom went to arrow. constantly incredible television, it would hands down have been my favourite thing to watch each week this season (once fringe finished that is, and that was so long ago i barely remember it being in this season).
    i have also just started watching game of thrones (yes i'm a bit behind) and loving it, but until i get a bit further in my two faves currently are supernatural and arrow



    in case it got lost in all of that:
    current: supernatural, arrow
    finished: fringe, LOST

    ReplyDelete
  9. I voted for Supernatural and Bates Motel.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Hannibal and Game of Thrones. Would usually vote for Supernatural, but quality declined. :/

    ReplyDelete
  11. Current: Supernatural and Castle
    Finished: The X-Files and Veronica Mars

    ReplyDelete
  12. same here! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  13. Game of Thrones and Hannibal
    Lost and Twin Peaks


    The past 3 years I have tried to vote Justified in, but it never makes it anyway so this year I went with Hannibal instead. It is difficult to choose only 2 shows.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Is there any chance we could have prediction brackets for this as we used to have for the Lost best episode and best character thing? Thanks a lot!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Panos Nestoras10 June 2013 at 15:37

    I've been looking forward to this..
    Current: Breaking Bad and Justified (i would have picked GoT but i guess it's going to get a lot of votes anyway)


    Finished: The Wire and Lost

  21. Supernatural

    One Tree Hill
    Veronica Mars
    :)

    ReplyDelete
  22. Agreed! I feel the same love for Twin Peaks, Lost, Fringe, GoT, Justified, X-Files, OUAT, Community..., so different kinds of TV shows, every year it's more and more difficult to pick just two.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm changing my 75% of my picks compared to last year. I hope everyone does the same, so it'll be fun and unpredictible. Wouldn't that be fun ?


    Current :

    - Breaking Bad - I wanted to vote for another one, but I can't help it, it's the best show ever and the anticipation mounting in me when I think of the final 8 episodes couldn't be bigger.
    - Raising Hope - I know its Chances are slim, but I wanted to vote for it because it was the funniest comedy on TV this past season imo. Perfect cast and perfect blend of meta/zany well-written humour.

    Finished :

    - 30 Rock - I voted for this staple of smart comedy that left us this year on one of its best seasons.
    - SouthLAnd - same here, I'm voting for a dearly beloved show that was just too good to be popular.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Finished: Lost (!!!!) and Battlestar Galactica. Honorable Mention goes to Prison Break


    Currently Airing: The Walking Dead for sure. The second one was terribly hard to pick because I don't really have one, it varies a lot. I went with Revenge but I could have gone with a number of different ones really

    ReplyDelete
  25. Fringe and Life for shows ended Games of Thrones and Elementary

    ReplyDelete
  26. Current shows are ridiculously difficult. I have to choose from CSI, Elementary, NCIS, NCIS L.A., Hawaii Five-0, Person of Interest, Arrow and Nikita. Also, Adam tells me that 24 counts as a current show. Hmm. Have to go Arrow as it's the show that during the 2012/13 season where I looked forward to EVERY episode. I've recently got into POI, and I love it. POI is my second pick.

    Finished shows have to be FRIENDS and CSI Miami. That was easy.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Woo hoo! It's my favorite time of year on SpoilerTV. This contest has always been fun. Thank you Adam for continuing. Since this contest includes past series I always look at the series as a whole even if it is a current show. Therefore, while season 8 sucked out loud of Supernatural, SPN still gets my vote because overall it is still my favorite TV series. The second nomination was difficult though because there are so many shows I love. Arrow, Grimm, Burn Notice, White Collar, Teen Wolf, Person of Interest, and Defiance made my short list, but to narrow that list down was difficult.


    As with current shows, the first nomination was easy. The second, impossible. Leverage gets my first vote. I miss that show terribly and I hope it makes it into the contest. The Parker, Eliot, and Hardison trio may be my favorite combination on TV now that the Winchester brothers have been sidelined and screwed with. Oh to see one more caper. The second nomination always gets me because there has been so much great TV out there. Fringe, Buffy, X-Files, Roswell, Everwood, and Veronica Mars all sprung instantly to mind. Again so hard to choose.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Current:
    1. Dexter
    2. Person of Interest


    Ended:
    1. Lost
    2. Fringe

    ReplyDelete
  29. How could I have forgotten Monk. That should have made my short list too. I love doing mini Monk marathons.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Arrrow would have been on my short list if for nothing but the season finale alone. It was simply the best hour of TV I have watched this year. Can't wait to see what they do with season 2.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I have just started Justified but I can definitely see how people have gotten hooked on this series.

    ReplyDelete
  32. If I remember right, they tried to have them for the Favorite Show (by the way Adam thanks for changing it from Best Show and its endless argument) last year but could never get it to work with the system. It delayed the contest a couple of weeks before they chucked it in order to get started.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Another Defiance fan. Woo hoo! I am really enjoying that series.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I also didn't nominate Fringe because I know it will have no problem getting into the contest. If luck has it like all previous times, it will go up against another show I love in the first round though.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Thanks a lot for your answer, always nice! Pitty about that though!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I am thinking about giving it a try soon as well.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Is Justified a procedural or a serial?

    ReplyDelete
  38. I agree about Arrow's season finale, it was mind blowing awesome. I wouldn't go with best hour of TV from the year, but it was very very high up there, it was incredible

    ReplyDelete
  39. Justified has the most amazing actors. Even the small parts are very well cast.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Nice picks! Wish more people were watching Justified. Truely a great show.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Thus far it is a procedural but its characters are the real draw anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Agreed. Raylan's stepmom/aunt or whatever she really is has really impressed me even though she hasn't been in it a lot. I like the one-time guest characters so far too.

    ReplyDelete
  43. The constant action and movie quality production of Arrow's season finale made it the best for me. Add to it the moving death scene and I felt sucker punched in the very best way from the finale. No other episode this year had that affect on me.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I really like the father-daughter bond between Nolan and Irisa and the issues it sometimes causes because they are not of the same race and Irisa's difficult childhood. Generally it's action and plot first for me, but this relationship has sucked me in. I also like the whole post-Apocalyptic setting but I am a sucker for dystopias so that's a given. There is a mytharc that is slowly being unraveled along with the procedural elements so there is a little something for everyone.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Thanks for the great comments!

    ReplyDelete
  46. The death scene had me all the way as well. And I love this chaotic situations like the one they had going, so it really did it for me too

    ReplyDelete
  47. Panos Nestoras10 June 2013 at 20:05

    Thanks. Your picks are some of my favourite shows as well. I can't say i'm surprised that Justified isn't nearly as popular as it should be since it's the kind of show that doesn't get a lot of attention unfortunately, like The Wire. Personally i've had some success in convincing some of my friends to watch it recently and they loved it. Also surprisingly, it has just started airing on TV in my country so i'm curious to see if it's going to find an audience or not.

    ReplyDelete
  48. It´s still not airing in Denmark as far as I know. It is a shame. Too much reality TV and way too little quality shows.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Panos Nestoras10 June 2013 at 20:17

    Well at least you have Borgen which is a great show.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Yep, POI,LOST and Fringe! Who is that in your avatar?

    ReplyDelete
  51. True! Danish shows are pretty good in general. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  52. Selecting only two shows was hard
    Current: HIMYM and TBBT

    Finished: Friends and Heroes

    ReplyDelete
  53. She's a former character (Vampire Queen of Louisiana Sophie-Anne Lecerq) from True Blood. She was killed a couple of season's ago, but she's my favorite TB character ever!

    I had a hard time choosing favorite current shows. I feel guilty about not choosing GOT, Orphan Black, Hannibal, Boardwalk Empire, Revolution, and Bates Motel!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Current: Person of Interest and Arrow. I never expected to like Arrow, but it's really good!


    Finished: Spartacus and Merlin.


    I didn't even bother to submit shows like Fringe, Homeland, Game of Thrones, etc, because I know they'll get through. I'm looking forward to this competition :D

    ReplyDelete
  55. Natalie Powell10 June 2013 at 22:00

    Castle, Continuum, Fringe and Body of Proof (I really liked the last season)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I had to go with Castle & Orphan Black for current


    Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Veronica Mars for the finished pair, although with the Veronica Mars movie being made does it still count as finished ???

    ReplyDelete
  57. Current: Orphan Black & Doctor Who.
    Finished: Damages & X-Files.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Current: Sherlock and Grimm

    Finished: Firefly and Friends

    ReplyDelete
  59. I really hope Grimm makes it into the contest. It and Teen Wolf are my current favorite genre shows. I'm so glad you decided to try it too....and in time for the finale. Kudos!

    ReplyDelete
  69. Current: The Walking Dead and Hannibal. (i am amazed i picked Hannibal only b/c i was so sure it was going to be terrible, but Bryan Fuller did an AMAZING job)


    Finished: Alphas(we need a movie or something just to finish that cliffhanger!) and Lie To Me which i always felt was way underrated.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Rabia Salvatore11 June 2013 at 05:13

    Current: Being Human (US) and Teen Wolf, Finished: Veronica Mars and Life Unexpected

    Hopefully most of my other favourite current/finished shows will be nominated like Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, Castle, Bones, Beauty and the Beast, Arrow, (hopefully) Nikita, Buffy, Angel, Gilmore Girls, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, Smallville and The OC. Almost nominated Pretty Little Liars and Lying game but I love Teen Wolf and Being Human more =P. Veronica Mars may have been a bit wasted since a lot of people have started to watch it after the movie announcement (like me) but I love the show (on season 3).

    ReplyDelete
  71. Current shows: Castle and NCIS
    Finished shows: LOST and Desperate Housewives


    I'm excited to see what shows get into the competition! Can't wait! :D

  73. Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries - Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Lost!!!

    ReplyDelete
  74. Tough to choose just 4. Went for Game of Thrones and Arrow as current series and Lost and Firefly from ended ones.

    ReplyDelete
  75. MrBuffySummers11 June 2013 at 11:40

    Hannibal and Vampire Diaries, Buffy(my favourite of all time!!!) and Angel!

    ReplyDelete
  76. Current - Game of Thrones & Hannibal
    Finished - LOST and Fringe

    ReplyDelete
  77. Castle/Hannibal; Veronica Mars/Fringe

    ReplyDelete
  78. Bwah! I do so love the theme song. It really sets the tone of the show.

    ReplyDelete
  79. For me the sheer pace of the script was a winner. Even the lame Laurel being needy scene in the middle didn't drag the finale down because we got to move off it pretty quick. Not quickly enough but not so much that I was throwing socks at the screen.

    ReplyDelete
  80. I have been walking to it one episode a day. I'm still in season 1 but I may changed up and marathon season 2. Just ordered season 3 for my dad for Father's Day so I will probably borrow it after he's done. My dad is the one who finally convinced me to watch it.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Yeah for the Teen Wolf nomination. I'm hoping it gets enough love to get into the contest. It is currently the show I am most psyched about probably because it is the show whose quality has most surprised me. As a fan of shows on the CW since it became the CW and the WB before that, I should know better than to judge a show by its network. Teen Wolf is sooo much better than anything that airs on MTV has a right to be.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Current - Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones
    Finished - Chuck and Malcolm in the Middle

    ReplyDelete
  83. Current: Fringe & Dexter. (Fringe is considered to be "current", right?)
    Finished: Lost & Oz.

    ReplyDelete
  84. current: games of thrones; hannibal
    finished: fringe; battlestar galactica

  85. Sebastian Herz11 June 2013 at 21:14

    current: The walking dead/Homeland
    finished: Lost/Six feet under

    ReplyDelete
  86. Under last year's rules, it would have been considered a current series because it aired in the past TV season. This year the rules have changed and current means it will air episodes int eh next TV season or is airing new episodes right now. The paragraphs at the beginning explain the new rules.

    ReplyDelete
  87. The rules changed this year. The paragraph at the beginning explains that Fringe is considered a finished show.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I voted Shondaland current and finished!!! Call me biased but i love Grey's Anatomy, Scandal and Private Practice and i threw in Happy Endings

    ReplyDelete
  89. Elena Wonderland12 June 2013 at 01:04

    Went for Supernatural and Prison Break

    ReplyDelete
  90. Great picks, love all 4 shows.

  91. Vampirediariesb12 June 2013 at 12:48

    I feel sad knowing that both Nikita and HIMYM will end next year.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Oops. My bad. I read "January" instead of "June". Ha.

    ReplyDelete
  93. I figured that it'd be nice to get some more current current shows in there, and still have some recent and popular finished shows as well...

    ReplyDelete
  94. It definitely gives the finished shows more of a shot. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  95. Hopefully less spaces taken up by finished shows that are there just to make up the numbers as well...

    ReplyDelete
  96. Current - Scandal and Person of Interest
    Finished - Friends and Desperate Housewives

    ReplyDelete
  97. I hope Person of Interest makes it in. I love how it combines procedural and serial elements and it has some of the most intriguing characters.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Very true. I almost wish they were 2 separate contests. It's hard to judge something that is finished against something going on right now and may get better or worse in time.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Current - Breaking Bad/ Nikita
    Finished - Friends/Alias

    ReplyDelete
  100. Current: Sons of Anarchy and Parks and Recreation
