Where to next?

Where to next?

I was thinking that perhaps we didn't give Dark skies a fair chance and I hear this kind of show gets even better the second time we watch it, so we could go through all the episodes again, just to make sure we don't like it... Or we could move on.

Anyway, in the extremely unlikely chance that someone new has started seeing these posts just now, we're a jolly group of people who likes to watch old TV shows and commenting on them. We've just finished Dark Skies, but you can join in now, and you can participate by helping us choosing the next one.

That being said, all those who wish to continue on to a new show list 2 shows you would like to do next. The guidelines are pretty simple.

I. It should be a one-season show. Special cases outside this rule can be discussed in case an exception should be made.

II. Availability is a tricky little thing. I assume our American friends would prefer it it to be available on Netflix, though that's not entirely necessary, since others may get it from different sources. The important thing is that we try to find a show that is available to everyone.

III. Just as promised when we elected Dark Skies, the other shows that were voted but lost would be remembered in case you want to give them another shot this time. As you may recall, in the last voting we had an exciting TRIPLE TIE, but then Dark Skies won after the customary judge bribes. And the other shows that were best voted were, in this order,

1- Dark Skies
1- The Middleman
1- Brimstone

4- Caprica
5- Nowhere Man
6- 11th Hour

IV. Suggestions to enter the voting process are limited to two, but feel free to mention other one-season shows that you think might get us interested. Maybe there's an old show you're thinking about that other people are thinking about too, so it may save some work if we're all thinking of the same other shows. Those mentions will be remembered later.

4. Suggestions are open and will close on Sunday, February 21st at 10 P.M. That's my 10 P.M, which should be 6 P.M. on your West Coast. Voting will take place from Monday 22nd to Thursday 25th. The winner will be announced Friday 26th. There will be one week off for members to obtain the show and then the following Friday (August 2nd) we will start.

4. We ask once something is finally chosen do your best to go with it even if it isn't entirely your cup of tea, or your dark piece of sky, or even if you feel it's no better than a cheap monkey statue made of second-rate metal. After all, it's only one season and we have always been able to come to a consensus.

That's it. We have always managed to find something good about every show we have chosen and as hard as it is to believe, some of us have been doing this since January 07.
