  2. Fringe & Charmed. Charmed is just a classic. I love The X-Files but to me Charmed all the way.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Castle in the first poll, never watched either from the second poll.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Fringe & The X-Files.

    ReplyDelete
  5. Fringe and The X-Files for me, Never seen Castle or Charmed, so they were pretty easy choices today.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Has to be Fringe and the classic X-Files

    ReplyDelete
  7. Fringe and Charmed for me (I was a bit scared to watch the X-Files when it aired, so I've only watched the movies, a few random episodes, and a the last three seasons- I´ll probably watch all of it one day)

    ReplyDelete
  8. Fringe and The X-Files.

    I'm already crying knowing this is it for FRINGE. :(

    ReplyDelete
  9. How the hell is Castle better than Fringe? Oh well, as long as The X-Files wins.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Easy, never saw Fringe, huge Castle fan, only saw a few Chamed episodes, so Castle and X-Files it is!:)

    ReplyDelete
  11. This competition is nothing to do with which show is best. It's the "Favourite" Show competition

    ReplyDelete
  12. Never seen Fringe or X-Files, so I voted for Castle and Charmed

    ReplyDelete
  13. Charmed that is all!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Very easy choices today even if i've watched all four shows... Fringe and The X-Files.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Castle and The X-Files. I have a bad feeling, that it'll be a battle between these shows, in the next round. But let's see about that.

    ReplyDelete
  16. FRINGE & Charmed!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I have no input anymore - all of my shows are out. I think Supernatural will win the whole thing in a final against Castle.

    Castle and The X-Files.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Fringe and X-Files. Sorry Charmed.

    ReplyDelete
  20. you really should watch the first few seasons of X-Files, so much better than the latter end of the series and the movies, well, I've never felt the need to re-watch them, once was ENOUGH.

    ReplyDelete
  21. castle and charmed for me.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I like castle but fringe all the way in the first one. I have never seen charmed and I have watched some x-files episodes, so x-files for me but i dont really care.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Well, when you put it like that...

    ReplyDelete
  24. Voted for Fringe but no way is it going to win with the extreme popularity of Castle on this site.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Fringe & The X-Files. Sucks that Fringe is up against Castle because it Castle has the weirdestly disproportional fanbase but whatevs, it also makes me hurt to choose TXF over Charmed because I do love Charmed, but it has to be the sci-fi.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Fringe and Charmed

    ReplyDelete
  27. Just Fringe for me!

    ReplyDelete
  28. first few episodes of Fringe were pretty good when I watched it, but I lost interest in it. I've been watching Castle for over 5 years. Everyone likes different stuff, that makes life interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Fringe & Charmed.
    I love the X-Files and know its importance to serialized television but Charmed was the show I could watch over and over again as a kid. Fringe is practically the successor of the X-Files, borrowing some themes and character dynamics, but it was also its own beast with a bevy of talent that ran against all expectations given storyline and ratings difficulties.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Castle and Charmed. Love these shows dearly :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. Nooo! I can't choose between Castle and Fringe :-((

    ReplyDelete
  32. I'd be shocked to see Fringe losing to Castle, but then this isn't about the quality of the show. It's more like a battle of the fanbase.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Fringe & Charmed for me

    ReplyDelete
  34. Fringe and The X-Files!!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Just X-Files today

    ReplyDelete
  36. Hmm, the way I see it is: "People either like Castle or they have never seen it", to quote Marlowe. I never heard of a person who wasn't hooked on Castle from the first episode. I'm not saying there isn't any, but it's hard to find one. It's a really good show, one of the best ever, so I'm not surprised of its popularity on this site or anywhere else. I loved Fringe as well, but it was just ok for me (I didn't run home from work to catch an episode), unlike Castle, where I could barely wait for the next episode.


    Obviously, I voted for Castle and the second poll is The X-Files, because its the greatest show ever. :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. Hmm,'loved Fringe,but it was just ok for me (I didn't run home from work to catch an episode).
    I'm confused? :) No need to answer! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  38. Good to see you here again!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I know this is about favorites, but COME ON. I can't believe Castle is that popular! I just could never get into it. X-Files and Fringe for me.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I happen to think that Castle's "quality" is better than Fringe's. I'll be shocked if Fringe gets even half of Castle's votes.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Voted Fringe & Charmed...which are both loosing

    ReplyDelete
  42. Castle is obviously the popular show here. Fringe is obviously the better one. No confusion here

    ReplyDelete
  43. Noooo i love CASTLE but i can not vote against FRINGE ..ahhhh

    ReplyDelete
  44. Well, I am one of those "rare" people, I guess. Still on season 2, for a very long time. It's a good show, but I wasn't hooked up from the first episode and still not. It took me 5 days to go through 3 seasons of Fringe on the other hand. So no needs to generalize here.
    Fringe and X-files for me today. But I am pretty sure Castle will win in the finals.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Fringe and The X-Files, o question here.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I don't think so tho :D just my opinion

    ReplyDelete
  47. well if Fringe was better it would be popular, don't ya think?

    ReplyDelete
  48. Fringe of course no question.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Wow, having to choose between Castle and Fringe is just cruel! *sigh* Sorry Fringe, but I gotta go with Castle on this one. Forgive me Anna.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Fringe and Charmed :P

    ReplyDelete
  51. Fringe and the X-Files for me!

    ReplyDelete
  52. No, I am betting on Castle. And I am a SPN fan. But our fandom is much smaller now. Castle fans will take a crown.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Supernatural to win by 37 votes.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I know what you mean by that...

    ReplyDelete
  55. Knew from the beginning that Fringe would lose once I saw that it was matched up against Castle... Poor Fringe, I miss you

    ReplyDelete
  56. LoL. Sarcastic, but funny.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Well, I think that ave to say a few words in the name of the whole fandom, once and for all, because people start to piss me off whenever Castle is winning here, same speech all over again... Castle has a huge fanbase, don't you ever think it's because of its quality? You can go to other sites if you want to, whenever Castle is on a poll, it wins... It has a huge fanbase all over the world. It's a wonderful show, and I'm sure millions of fans would agree with this statement. I'm not telling that other shows are bad, not at all, I'm watching most of them, but if they had a bigger fanbase, they would have win. So try to understand, and please stop with your same comments.
    And to quote Marlowe, 'People either like Castle, or they've never seen it'.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Hi Laura,how have you been doing? I was hoping Fringe would've been in a better position by now. I'm not giving up on a comeback though.

    ReplyDelete
  59. FRINGE is popular,very popular we just don't have as large fanbase like Castle. And if this was posted on Monday instead of a Saturday Fringe just might have beat it..People have things to do over the weekend..

    ReplyDelete
  60. I've seen it and I don't like it. But that's okay, it has a magic formula that many people seem to enjoy, and the writers stick to it. Good for them.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I like Castle a lot but I just had to choose Fringe, man I miss that show a lot.
    Also The X-Files. :)

    ReplyDelete
  62. FRINGE Is loosing :( GO Charmed

    ReplyDelete
  63. Castle and The X-Files, my two favorite shows.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Castle & Charmed. Although it still hurt like hell not voting for Fringe. D=

    ReplyDelete
  65. I'm wishing you the best luck in contacting people to vote for Fringe. Your right about this being held on the weekend. I didn't expect it till next week. That's one thing about Fringe,it never had an easy ride.

    ReplyDelete
  66. As much as people love Fringe, and all the dedicated Fringie's on here, I wonder how the ratings managed to slip so much. I know a lot of people re-corded it on DVR and stuff, and all that. Some could argue it was the "Friday Night Death Slot" but the ratings were slipping before that..

    ReplyDelete
  67. Fringe and X-Files today. This was an easy voting day for me although I have also watched the other two. Castle I dropped last year when it focused on shipping way too much, Charmed I basically watched as reruns on TNT between other shows.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Very true. The beginning years were the best and most focused of The X-Files.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Fringe & X-Files :)

    ReplyDelete
  70. Not anymore. A couple of years ago, definitely.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I am another rare person because while I really enjoyed the first couple seasons of Castle, I have dropped it now. Far too much emphasis on the shipper fans for me.

    ReplyDelete
  72. All online polls are about the fanbase more than the show, but "quality" is very subjective. That's why I am glad that Adam changed the name from "Best" Tv Show to "Favorite."

    ReplyDelete
  73. That assumes that Castle fans don't have things to do over the weekend. Fringe would have a huge uphill battle against Castle in this competition no matter what day it was held on.

    ReplyDelete
  74. That seems hugely egotistical of Marlowe and probably not the best quote to inspire new people to watch the show. Perhaps instead of lecturing you could tell all the reasons why you love Castle and why other people should try it. As for people being tired of Castle winning every poll, that happened on this site with Supernatural too. Don't worry. It will stop happening when Castle stops winning, which it will at some time because like everything else TV fandom is cylical.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Castle and The X-Files :)

    ReplyDelete
  76. Online fandom never tells the true picture of all people watching for any TV show. I know people who dropped it when they brough in the parallel worlds. I almost dropped it when they erased Peter from everyone's memory and effectively killed the best thing the show had going for it, the father-son relationship with Walter. That's what kept me coming back. Sometimes shows make choices that turn off viewers; sometimes it's just age.

    ReplyDelete
  77. so true of most genre shows lately, tbh

    ReplyDelete
  78. Popularity ≠ quality

    ReplyDelete
  79. I wasn't implying they didn't.The Castle fans come here everyday.But with Fringe,since it ended many people that were here have moved on,so trying to get Fringies together is a lot harder to do on weekends than during the week.And if i remember correctly didn't we have 2 days,not just 24 hours when it got to the quarter finals?

    ReplyDelete
  80. It was only the finals that had 48 hours, not anything else.

    ReplyDelete
  81. BWAH! So sad it's come to this.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Especially since it was filmed in VC,at night.What a great backdrop they had!...

    ReplyDelete
  83. Agreed. Duchovny insisting they move to LA put a crimp on my fascination with him to be honest. Not that I had any investment in Vancouver filming. It just seemed ludicrous that they would move locations for an actor.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Funny how i remember things differently.My mind is playing tricks on me!

    ReplyDelete
  85. And i thought the move was for Gillian! Even if it was the landscape change was the most dramatic for me,it change the whole feel of the stories.I'm not saying that was the start of their demise, it wasn't but without the darkness,the rain,and forest,it was like watching a different show at times.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Castle all the way!

    ReplyDelete
  87. Quality? Castle has the best psuedo realism than most procedurals. That is hard to do. It rarely resorts to any literary trickery. So it mostly tell the story up front and personal. That is quality.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I love X Files but Charmed is my favorite

    ReplyDelete
  89. Was wondering where you were?Must of had a busy day!

    ReplyDelete
  90. I can't even begin to decide between Castle and Fringe....help.
    On the second one, I have to go with X-Files. I liked Charmed, but Rose McGowan always managed to annoy me.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I will always vote for Charmed they are my favorite show although X-File was good Charmed still better

    ReplyDelete
  92. Fringe and X-Files for me... can't believe both are actually losing.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Charmed for me, since I have never watched any of the others.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I love Castle and I love Fringe, I can't choose :(

    ReplyDelete
  95. This is my first time seeing a SpoilerTV Favorite Series Competition. Just curious, is it typical that 5 out of the 8 series in the Quarter Finals are cancelled shows?

    ReplyDelete
  96. Castle all the way. Fringe is the worst show ever.

    Tough choice between Charmed and X-Files.

    ReplyDelete
  97. I wish the outcome had been different in this,but you fought a good battle Laura. I don't have the network connections you have, but tried my best. I did manage to get my son on the phone. He watched the series online this summer,and thought it's great. Hope he voted although he was with his new girlfriend at the time. There's one thing about polls. They aren't always accurate. Fringe will still be number 1.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Ya I've had one of those trying weeks again. I finally am catching up! I have some revolutions theories I posted on Lisa's great review!

    ReplyDelete
  99. Oh good,when i get the chance later i'll check it out.Trying to get health care coverage is proving to be a monumental pain in the ass,causing the worst headache and eye strain.I'm here cause i just can't face spending another day ready to scream,ha! :P

    ReplyDelete
  100. Fringe lost? Well now all of my shows are gone :'(

    ReplyDelete
  101. Ashley HollingsworthOctober 7, 2013 at 7:52 PM

    has to be Charmed for me, a huge fan of the show, wished it could come back onto the TV but i suppose now Zenescope has started making comics i can't see it happening... still waiting for the next lot of the comics that they have delayed, just wish we knew something lol

    15 years anniversary for Charmed can't be bad eh??

    ReplyDelete
  102. Haha, figurative speach... Means I was catching up the episode when I had time to watch, I didn't 'have to' watch it immediately after it airs. For Castle, on the other hand, I was making time to watch it as soon as possible. Clearer? ;)

    ReplyDelete
  103. LoL.i figured it was something like that! I thought it was cute,not trying give you a hard time! ;)
