Motherland Fort Salem proved the hit of the Episode Competition, with both of its entries reaching the final mere weeks after making its series debut. Whether it continues that initial dominance remains to be seen, but it features here as a seeded show, so it's done well so far. NCIS's record is stunningly split. It was a top ten finisher in the first three years of the competition, including a bronze medal in 2012. Since then, it's featured five out of seven times and hasn't won a tie. It appeared in the 2013 competition just weeks after Cote de Pablo announced she was leaving and has been near the bottom ever since. Coincidence? Anyway, let's see if it breaks that run today.
Almost Paradise was the other surprise hit of the Episode Competition, reaching the quarter-finals and being among the most nominated episodes. It came close to being a seed here so I'm expecting it to do well. That being said, The Witcher is incredibly popular from its one season, and will not be easy to topple. Two debutants going head-to-head is always fun because it's a complete unknown. Your guess is as good as mine on which way this one will go.
