Hey Folks,
We have now officially passed the half way point of round one, and we have 16 of our 32 shows ready and waiting for their chance to progress into the third round. The two shows taking their place in the next round were NCIS, which snuck past The Walking Dead in a close battle, and Arrested Development, which creeped over the line by overtaking Flash-forward in the final few hours of the day.
Before then we have to wrap up the second half of round one, which starts today with the two time champion Supernatural getting its competition underway. It faces a brand new show which has some popularity around these parts, Revenge, and it will be a good early indication on how Supernatural is going to do.
We also have superhero hit Smallville challenging Aaron Sorkin's most successful TV series, The West Wing in a day that is sure to excite. Can the cult Superman show defeat the Emmy Award eating smash hit that was The West Wing. One thing is certain; should bring in two very different sets of fans
If you want to see the draw for the rest of the competition, and see which show will take on which other show then head HERE for a look. Let the voting begin!
