Went for a Game of Thrones vs. Supernatural Semi-Final...
ReplyDeletei went for game of thrones and firefly
ReplyDeleteGOT & Supernatural :D
ReplyDeleteGoT and Firefly!! :)
ReplyDeleteGot and Spn. nothing beats them. that's my POV, of course ._.
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones on the first one, especially because one of the few horses I still have in the running. Supernatural got my vote on the second one but I am not very invested. I have seen like half of season 1 and I liked it; firefly I only saw the movie and I also liked it, but still saw a bit more of supernatural.
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Supernatural, really tough choices
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Supernatural
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones and Firefly for me. :)
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Firefly.
ReplyDeleteVery difficult choices this time... I went with Buffy and Supernatural.
ReplyDeleteHard -- they are all so good. Game of Thrones and Supernatural.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to finish SPN or Firefly?
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Firefly.
ReplyDeletei went with GoT and Supernatural although it was really hard to choose this time...
ReplyDeleteOff whats remaining my perfect final 2 would be GOT and Supernatural
ReplyDeleteI will always vote for Supernatural and went with Buffy.
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Supernatural
ReplyDeleteFirefly I never actually started, I just saw the movie by chance on TV once. Supernatural yes I intend to, but it is impossible during regular season. Maybe next summer.
ReplyDeleteMe too! ;)
ReplyDeleteDidn't / don't watch SPN or Buffy so my vote went for GoT and Firefly.
ReplyDeleteSPN and hmm... I got no idea, gonna go with Buffy.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see Game of Thrones v Firefly in the Semi-Final, but that's never gonna happen - Supernatural will get to the final.
ReplyDeleteDouble dose of Whedon for me
ReplyDeleteSupernatural and Game of Thrones!
ReplyDeleteIt's painful having to choose between GoT and Buffy. Buffy is my childhood, I can't vote against it! But GoT is so good!
ReplyDeleteSince ive erased season 8 from my memory i can vote for SPN. Sorry Captain Hotpants. Never watched GoT so going with the amazing Buffy.
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Supernatural!!!
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones, I hope it makes it to the final.
ReplyDeleteSupernatural will always be my favourite show! Voting for it until the end.
ReplyDeleteI do love Firefly though; if it was against anyone but Supernatural I'd have voted for it!
Its been slowly gaining, hopefully it gains enough. Last poll had over 3,000 votes so I think the polls will explode with votes tonight
ReplyDeleteYeah, let´s hope. It is such a fantastic show with the most amazing cast and writers, it deserves a place in the final.
ReplyDeleteI love Game of Thrones, SPN, Buffy and Firefly. So that poll wasn't easy for me.
ReplyDeleteOn the one hand GoT is beautifully acted, well written but awfully paced. Trough three years there hasn't really been a feel that anything huge happened, alltough so much shit went down.
Buffy was well acted, beautifully written and well paced. Every season had a climax and its emotional ups and downs and while I find myself walking to the fridge getting a beer while certain GoT storylines are going on I could never stand up while watching Buffy because I was so fascinated.
But while GoT almost soley consists of good episodes the same can't be said of Buffy, because the occasional filler did annoy me. But considering that a season of Buffy usually had 22 (in the case of season 1 12) episodes I'll let that pass.
Not easy for me but I have to vote for Buffy. I grew up with it and it's basically the reason I'm addicted to television
Supernatural vs. Firefly. Now that's a tough one as well. Supernatural is soon entering its ninth year while Firefly was denied even a second. Firefly had a full cast of strong characters to back it up and managed to create a threatening atmosphere with a low budget (the Reaver ship). But sadly many plot points that were hinted at were never fully answered (Shepards ID) not even in Serenity.
Supernatural started out with the typical MotW principe and would certainly loose to Firefly if I only had the first season to judge from but it doesen't it has 8 years. 8 years that were a emotional rollercoaster ride for me. The show has 4 extremely strong characters that share a bond that even tough fictional is very well feelable for the audience and the evolution from the classic horror movie scenario to a heaven vs. hell storyline was well done. Of course season 6 and 7 sucked donkey balls but even these seasons had fantastic episodes (The French Mistake, The Man that would be King, Meet the new Boss, Deaths Door, Survival of the Fittest just to name a few.)
In the end Supernatural simply has the benefit of having had more time to grow on us. I don't know how that poll would look like if Firefly had more than one season.
Supernatural it is
buffy and supernatural for me.
ReplyDeleteOnly GOT for me!
ReplyDeleteFirefly & Buffy
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones and Supernatural for me.
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones and Firefly
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones & Supernatural
ReplyDelete(even though it really really hurts to vote against Buffy!)
Buffy.
ReplyDeleteWhat's up with that Buffy picture, I've never seen that one in my life...
ReplyDeleteSupernatural vs Buffy Always Supernatural stand behind my boyz always..
ReplyDeleteSPN was easy, it always gets my unconditional vote. First one was really hard, moving toward the final of this competition I find more and more of shows I love run against each other. But - GoT it is.
ReplyDeleteEasy today, game of thrones and supernatural
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones and Supernatural! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think the poll counted my vote. I checked it before I voted then I voted for Game of Thrones but when it showed the results the votes for Game of Thrones where still the same.
ReplyDeleteBuffy and Supernatural - easy votes today.
ReplyDeleteBROWNCOATS WHERE ART THOU LETS WIN THIS. THE GAME OF THRONES CROWD IS CRAZY BUT WE SURE AS HELL AIN'T LOSING TO SUPERNATURAL.
ReplyDeleteSupernatural and Game of Thrones

ReplyDeletecan't believe GOT lost
ReplyDeleteFirefly was robbed!!!!! I'll be in my bunk.... sulking!!
ReplyDeleteNot a big deal, but your closing comments above are from yesterday.
ReplyDeleteGoT, easily. And I went with Firefly cause it was solid for its 13 episodes, where Supernatural has been meh at best since Season 5.
ReplyDelete1 more vote and its tied.
