ILX's Best Television of 2020 Poll / VOTING AND CAMPAIGNING THREAD / Voting Ends After January 29, 2021

xp my tip to make the Crown more exciting to watch: go into it with an embarrassingly poor knowledge of British history, like I have

can anyone rep for Giri/Haji? started it last night but i start a lot of shows and never finish. worth watching the whole season?

We're at 27, so I would love some ballots over the next day or so!
The goal is over 50 and I think we should be able to do that?

Yeah, it seems like it's going to be po-faced but has a surprising amount of humor. There is however a sequence in the last episode that's a leftfield indulgence, I liked it a whole lot but can easily see others roll their eyes at it. In any event, it'll be on my ballot when I get around to it.

get around to it before friday is all i'm saying!

Genuinely cant think of enough new watches that would make a ballot worthwhile and i dont care if u madd

dude, you didn't watch three shows from last year?

Its doubtful and look i dont wanna give my schtick away but i definitely didnt watch three id vote for

There are shows being boosted itt and id disown siblings for ranking them, like

LOL I am a complete not TV watcher (even to the point of "I dont own a TV" for a while!) and I manged to see at least 10 serieseses this last year.

my point, made repeatedly, is that's likely the case for almost everyone on this board to this covid thingy

Its ok deems we know you dont want to rep for Picard.

I went through the list, i promise

Ive watched 3, only one of which i completed.

Caught bits of a few others while the wife had them on.

Genuinely wouldnt be fair at all to submit

I promise i had a good year catching up on stuff tho

xp how dare u

tee hee

post yr not-ashamed catchup list deems

as meager as my vote was I voted

and it was appreciated! That puts us in need of 20 more ballots to get this to 50 and a more representative slice of ILX... can we do it?
YES WE CAN

Can I do a write in for Umbrella Academy somehow? it wasnt nommed but i'd honestly have put it in my 3-5 section if I'd realised.

forks, should I bother you with a correction to my supplemental ballot or nah? Because I stupidly left off the best 'new to me' show I saw last year. I mean I assume you aren't actually tallying votes for how many people first watched and became fans of eg Mork & Mindy in 2020 but just thought I'd check.

Voted! Man, I thought I watched more. Actually, I did watch more, but because I forgot to nominate a lot of it wasn't on here! What, nobody else was watching Beforeigners? (OK this came out in late 2019 on HBO Europe but only this Feb on HBO streaming in the US.)

i would strongly suggest that at this point (when the backend of the vote tabulation is fairly tricky) we hold off from trying to reorder ballots. Trayce, if you'd like to add something to the bottom, just email me back. OL, happy to add your rediscovered best-ofs to the master list.

Everyone apologizes for their list when they submit it for some reason! Be proud of your viewing habits, whether too much too little too trashy or too erudite! We are what we eat!

i'm assuming i have until tomorrow midnight to submit? i'm almost done my viewing list, but work blew up a few days ago and i am suddenly now dealing with vertigo, which fucking sucks like you wouldn't believe; but i hope to have a satisfactory list by tomorrow evening.

midnight tomorrow is fine. But all you other non-afflicted people should get these in tonight!

Enjoyed Beforeigners but think I voted for it last year xps

Add me to the list of would have voted for The Umbrella Academy if I'd remembered about it (and if it had been nominated)

Noted forks all good :)

I think I only saw four things, and one wasn't very good, but I sent a ballot with the other three!

Thanks!

And what about YOU?!?!! have YOU voted??!?!?!?!?

just voted

but what about YOU!?!!?!?!?!?

funky 16 corners represent!

i voted!

BTW, if you have not received a note from me after receiving your ballot that means you either sent it today or i haven't seen it... so resend if you think i missed it!

Glad the Awkwafina show was nommed... near top of my ballot, so much funnier than I expected

i voted

as did I

Cracked 40! Can we get 20 more to put this up to 60?

imo if you keep the polls open until you wake tomorrow we will

Happy to vote again :)

1 vote apiece i'm afraid. But tell your friends either on another thread or those who lurk!

Also, everyone who has voted should have a note from me by now.

just voted - managed to get to 25 with a few things that weren't nominated - Sewing Bee & Better Things

so.... anyone else? I'm fine with Thermo sending in at midnight and I"m okay leaving this open for the night but I'd like to close in the morning.

I sent mine! Despite the vertigo!!

indeed you did! So we are at a total of 46... definitely enough to do a 77 but 7 less than last year. Any final takers before I put this to bed?

I just submitted a last-minute ballot.

takin' it!

Okay, closing it up. 47 total ballots with 162 shows receiving at least one vote.
