SPIKE & OLIVE. :D
ReplyDeleteSpike and Booth ;) without a doubt ;)
ReplyDeleteTough picks today but went for Spike and Olivia.
ReplyDeleteThe first poll is really tough but I pick Spike in the end as I love the character so much though Buffy. The second one is easy for me, Olivia
ReplyDeletebarney and booth
ReplyDeletenever seen the other 2 shows although i am hoping to start watching fringe sometime really soon
Spike and Angel....I mean Booth ;)
ReplyDeleteBarney and Liv. Imo Olivia is one of the best TV character right now.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Spike and Olivia!!
ReplyDeleteGo Olivia!
ReplyDeleteReally tough choices. My bracket has Barney, but I went with Spike. Otherwise, Booth is great, but I went with Olivia.
ReplyDeletevoted spike and olivia
ReplyDeleteThis day may be the hardest of all. These are four characters I like overall but each of them has something I don't like about them too. Barney is still the best thing about How I Met Your Mother but his character has been uneven over the years and the whole show has gotten tired around the edges. A vote for him would really be a vote for Neil Patrick Harris, who is without a doubt amazing. Spike was my absolute no question about it favorite villain. He was snarky and fun and bloodchilling. And then they chipped him and turned him into a whining, annoying puppy dog with a crush. Booth is a hero through and through. He's loyal, steadfast, and an absolute rock for the people around him. He has my respect more than any other character here. However, what seems like 564 years of back and forth between him and Brennan have worn me out and I no longer care about who he loves or why. I really like Fringe, but Olivia is my least favorite character of the main group. Season 3 had a great story line but it felt like every single episode characters had to stop what they were doing to give poor Olivia a self-esteem boost and remind her that she really was super special and smart and brave and.... Don't get me wrong, Olivia went through more than any other character this last season, but hearing every single character tell her that she was smart enough and pretty enough and gosh darn people liked her got old pretty fast.
ReplyDeleteAfter much, much wavering, my votes go to Barney and Booth. However my bracket says the exact opposite and will be undeniably shot if Olivia doesn't make it to the finals.
These are both really tough polls!! But Spike is my favorite Buffy character and Olivia is awesome...
ReplyDeleteBarney and Olivia :)
ReplyDeleteOlivia needs to win this competition!!!!
ReplyDeleteBarney is one of the best characters, so the first poll is easy , the second one is tougher, but went with Olivia.
ReplyDeleteOlive.
ReplyDeleteAnd no pep talks for you!
Olivia all the way!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn´t vote in the first pole.
Spike and Olivia woooo hooooo Sad to see that Spike is not in the lead tho...
ReplyDeleteBarney! And... That's a question. Big problem with second poll. Love both Booth and Olivia, so... I'll go with Booth since he has less votes;)
ReplyDeleteB&B: Barney and Booth
ReplyDeleteSpike and Booth
ReplyDeleteSpike and Booth
ReplyDeleteOlivia....Olivia....Olivia...Olivia...all the way! Oh,and Spike of course!
ReplyDeletego Booth!
ReplyDeleteSpike!
ReplyDeleteBarney vs. Spike? that's a very,very tough one.Had to vote for Spike,though.
ReplyDeleteSpike and Olive.
ReplyDeleteSpike and Booth (totally Angel) .... but why arent the Buffy vampire (one alum) winning!?? ;)
ReplyDeleteO voters, which generation art thee from?
Go Olivia! You rock!
ReplyDeleteAnother easy voting day for me:
ReplyDeleteBarney and Olivia.
I'm sad Abed didn't go on, but my bracket is wrecked already since Tyrion is out (I had him winning).
Spike and Olivia.
ReplyDeleteSorry Booth, you are cute but Olivia is BAMF!!! ftw
ReplyDeleteSpike and Booth!
ReplyDeleteSpike and Liv
ReplyDeleteI mostly agree with you, except in the points refering Olivia. I can say she is my favorite thing in Fringe (as much as I adore every single second of that show), but not for her being super special and smart and brave, but for never giving up trying.
ReplyDeleteOlivia.
ReplyDeleteSpike and Olivia.
ReplyDeleteBarney and Olivia ;))
ReplyDeleteHer perseverance is her best quality. I like that about her too. I just wish that the show didn't try so hard to tell the audience that Olivia is super important and very special. We get that on our own.
ReplyDeleteBarney and Olivia for me! although I like Booth too! :) and Barney although I like Spike because... come on!! it's NPH!!! :D
ReplyDeleteSpike and Olivia Dunham for me, though against most other people I would have chosen Booth.
ReplyDeleteSPIKE! Why is he losing?! :O D:
ReplyDeleteHE IS AMAZING!
One of my favorite TV-characters ever! :') <3
Voted for Spike. Shame that Booth and Olivia were in the same poll as I love them both but Olivia wins hands down.
ReplyDeleteNeil Patrick Harris is a god. So I voted for him. I donlt want him showing up on my doorstep singing showtunes to wake me up.
ReplyDeleteOlivia Dunham of course. No contest.
Spike and Booth although I love Olivia too :D
ReplyDeleteEasy poll for me. Even though I love all four of them, it's gotta be Spike and Olivia.
ReplyDeleteBarney and Booth. ♥
ReplyDeleteI picked Spike and Booth.
ReplyDeleteI voted Olivia... I don't know about the other two so I didn't vote...
ReplyDeleteJust as long as he doesn't bring a freeze ray, he can sing about Suits all he wants to me at any time. That's saying something because I am definitely NOT a morning person. But it's NPH.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! Are you kidding?! They want me to choose between two of my favourite shows on TV?! I love Booth and Olivia!!!!! D: I refuse to choose :D
ReplyDeleteChoosing Barney though I don't watch Buffy...
Of course Spike & Olive, no doubt about that!!!!
ReplyDeleteOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOliviaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
ReplyDeleteYou can join in and watch season 4 this Friday if you watch the recently released online recap episodes of season 1-3 :D
ReplyDeleteSpike and Olivia for me.
ReplyDeleteIt was hard but I voted Spike and Olivia.
ReplyDeleteBooth, and I'm choosing between Spike and Barney!
ReplyDeleteBarney and Olivia, even if its hard to chose between Barney and Spike >.<
ReplyDeleteOLIVIA> no compitition.
