Well, well, well – the sneaky “vote for your least favourites” round has produced one shock at least, because the two shows being eliminated today are:
Babylon 5
Chuck
Chuck’s departure isn’t much of a surprise – many were predicted it’s time was up, and it did have a very tenuous hold on the Top 10. But it had a creditably long run.
Babylon 5 on the other hand… that is a shocker. Because in all the previous rounds it’s done really well, but given the chance to vote out your least favourites, and a very different result takes place. Clearly it’s a Marmite title sequence… some love it, some don’t. Or maybe the show’s fans were voting for the show and not the title sequence? Whatever, it’s become a victim of that “tactical voting” we predicted would happen. It’ll be interesting to what the former B5 voters change their vote to…
So, eight left.
You’re back to voting for your three favourites now. Two will get the chop tomorrow!
