[MalaCloudy Black]

1) Lost vs. 16) ER - A show I never watched vs. one that I've seen a few seasons of and kind of liked (when George Clooney was on it!)

8) Mad Men vs. 9) Game of Thrones - A show I've never watched vs. a show I've seen two episodes of! Yay!

5) Buffy the Vampire Slayer vs. 12) Monty Python's Flying Circus - Super easy one. Never really "got" Buffy, didn't appeal to me at all.

4) Breaking Bad vs. 13) Bottom - I have no idea what Bottom is, but BB is one of my favourite shows on TV right now, sooo.

6) Supernatural vs. 11) Fawlty Towers - A show I used to watch in the morning before my college classes because nothing else was on vs. a show I've probably seen like, one episode of on PBS!

3) South Park vs. 14) Batman - Maybe one of the toughest ones for me this round. I like South Park, but lately it's been incredibly bad. On the other side, I'm a huge bat-nerd and don't believe there's ever been a bad Batman TV series (shut up The Batman never existed shut up) so there's that.

7) Farscape vs. 10) Freaks and Geeks - Never seen Farscape, but I fucking adore Freaks & Geeks.

2) Doctor Who vs. 15) Sons of Anarchy - Dr. Who is another one of those things I just don't "get". Chalk it up to being American or whatever, but it holds no appeal to me whereas SoA is right up there with Breaking Bad in terms of "Cloudy's favourite current TV shows".

2) Doctor Who vs. 15) Sons of Anarchy

A much stronger bracket with 3 decisions that really made me think, in the end Mad Men, Freaks and Geeks and Sons of Anarchy won out. The rest were all one sided as I had either only seen the one I voted or didn't like the other choice.

God what a tough bracket. How was the seeding done, btw?

Also, I assume Batman is the Adam West Batman?

2) Doctor Who vs. 15) Sons of Anarchy

If Doctor Who doesn't get through, then you all suck! I've never seen Breaking Bad, but really really don't like Bottom so breaking bad wins. I never got Lost and lied ER, especially the earlier seasons. Buffy or Python was a hard decision, like both, but in the end I went for Python mainly because I love the films

[Josh]

How was the seeding done, btw?

The prestigious 64 shows that were deemed battle-worthy have been assigned rankings according to the points they gained in the nomination round - the higher a given show was ranked, the more favorably it was placed in the tournament brackets.

Also, I assume Batman is the Adam West Batman?

Yes. If you ever have any doubt what show is being referred to, click on its name in the bracket I post. That's why the link is there.

Mostly easy choices for me. I don't like Mad Men and I actually dont like Breaking Bad that much either but I've never even heard of Bottom. I have a feeling I would like Farscape over Freaks and Geeks but I've never actually seen it.

[Benjamin]

CENTRAL BRACKET

1) Lost vs. 16) ER - No brainer here, Lost is the most overrated shit ever and ER is the best TV show, ever, especially during its heyday.

8) Mad Men vs. 9) Game of Thrones - Crazy hard choice here, as I've seen only one season of Mad Men versus one season of Game of Thrones. However Game of Thrones was exceptional, just pure brilliance.

5) Buffy the Vampire Slayer vs. 12) Monty Python's Flying Circus - I have no idea what Flying Circus is, but I do want to vote for it as John Cleese is on it. John Cleese is fucking awesome.

4) Breaking Bad vs. 13) Bottom - Breaking Bad is fucking phenomenal, pure and simple.

6) Supernatural vs. 11) Fawlty Towers - I don't know what Fawlty Towers is, sorry.

3) South Park vs. 14) Batman - No brainer here. Fuck South Park

7) Farscape vs. 10) Freaks and Geeks - Was never really into Farscape, this was one of those "which do I like least" choices.

2) Doctor Who vs. 15) Sons of Anarchy - Another easy choice.

If Doctor Who topples Son of Anarchy, I will snap a bitches neck. I'm looking at you, Split.

If Buffy topples Monty Python's Flying Circus, I will snap a bitches neck. I am looking at you, TKz.

[Mongrel]

CENTRAL BRACKET

1) Lost vs. 16) ER - I don't like Lost, but the first season was pretty entertaining before I was confused out of my skull by the second.

8) Mad Men vs. 9) Game of Thrones - Tough, tough match-up, but I'll go with Mad Men because it has kept up the quality for longer.

5) Buffy the Vampire Slayer vs. 12) Monty Python's Flying Circus - The Pythons were very hit and miss in the TV show, but I never liked Buffy/Angel.

4) Breaking Bad vs. 13) Bottom - Only know one of these, and it is a rpper.

6) Supernatural vs. 11) Fawlty Towers - Heh.

3) South Park vs. 14) Batman

7) Farscape vs. 10) Freaks and Geeks

2) Doctor Who vs. 15) Sons of Anarchy

I'd prefer not to vote in the last two battles because I've not seen any of the shows, but if pushed I'd just chance it on Freaks and Geeks and Sons of Anarchy.

I'm pretty much done if Dr. Who loses here.

2) Doctor Who vs. 15) Sons of Anarchy

-Never watched ER, so Lost wins by default (it would beat most things)

-Never watched Mad Men (it's on my list)....but Game of Thrones was the best show from last year.

-I've seen a few clips of Monty Python, so that wins.

-Never watched Bottom, so Breaking Bad (one of the best shows!) wins

-Supernatrual? Fawlty Towers? Pick one at random!

-Southpark wins out on this. Love that show.

-Farscape and F&G is another one chosen at random.

-Sons of Anarchy! When I heard the premise of the show, I wasn't too excited...then I watched it and was instantly hooked. Can't wait for next season.

Oh God, that last one was so, so, so hard! I think I've been swayed by the fact that I hardcored SoA last month right through, and Doctor Who's been off for a while. It's the hardest possible choice as two of my favourite shows. Argh!
