ILX's Best Television of 2021 Poll / VOTING AND CAMPAIGNING THREAD / Voting Ends After January 31, 2022

Even though I think I might vote for it based on an astonishing math video: https://newstechtrend.com/veritasium_a_story_of_youtube_propaganda_i4540

i will submit a ballot before tuesday feb 1, don't worry.

did nobody nominate?

The Great s2 (Hulu)

The Great is eligible to vote for, though no one nominated.

12 ballots! If you are having a lazy end of your week, maybe throw together a ten show ballot and send it in?

Leee: I learned about that after nominating it. It's really disappointing.

Now tracks & album voting is out of the way, I'll get a ballot in next week sometime

Desperately need to watch before the deadline: How to with John Wilson (S2); Joe Pera (S3); Yellowjackets (S1).

If I am to watch one other thing out of The Chair and Inside Job, which should it be?

The Chair is skippable. Fast watch and I always like Sandra Oh, but it doesn't go much further than mildly amusing imo

And I don't think I'm getting a chance to watch anything else before the deadline, so I'll try to get my ballot in shortly

i would strongly recommend not getting too uptight about doing your homework, i'm happy just to hear what you saw and enjoyed this year without cramming!

Okay, 14 ballots and one week! Let's get em in!

xp I hear you, but equally cramming is a good coping resource for the long month of January.

Watched both in the end and though The Chair stretched credibility, I can't not love anything Jay Duplass is in. Inside Job not so much for me, alas.

> Handmade: Britain's Best Woodworker

who was the only other person on the world who was watching this? i ask because there's a thing on quest tonight that sounds like a cross between this and The Repair Shop. Kings of the Wood it's called, people make wooden things for people.

(it was forks. there was another thing j blades hosted that also rings a bell... Jay's Yorkshire Workshop:

"At their workshop in Bradford, Jay Blades and a team of volunteers build beautiful furniture for deserving causes and local people.")

i'll look for that.

Hey we only have 15 ballots! We gotta get this to at least 50 or so to make it worth anyone's while? Where's your ballot?

Voted! Psyched for this.

I didn't get to 25 but had more shows than I thought.

Voted!

Late to this - sorry. Would nominate Showtrial (BBC).
There's also The Serpent (BBC)
Bloodlands (BBC)
You Don't Know Me (BBC)
The Masked Singer UK s3 (ITV)
Time (BBC)
Ridley Road (BBC)

Not watched them all, apols if any aren't in 2021

Will send in my ballot!

I just voted. First time voting in this poll, but for some reason, I watched a lot of current TV this year.

Also Back to Life s2 (bbc)

In My Skin s2 (BBC3)

as noted earlier, I'm happy to take unnominated shows as long as they aired somewhere for the first time in 2021 but you'll want to campaign here if you expect anyone to vote for them but you!

I should have nominated Guerra de Vecinos aka The War Next Door on Netflix, but forgot to, so join me in voting for it if you care to!

Not nominated, but Made for Love (HBO) was good & underrated.

for any of my fellow nba heads and ILH posters out there i would like to leave a reminder for the No Dunks youtube show, i know there's still some old starters heads out there

Some stuff (mostly Youtube channels) that I neglected to nominate but voted for:

Bonding (Netflix)

It's Okay To Be Smart

lol totally forgot that i watched and enjoyed amazon’s “made for love” this year

will vote this weekend, don’t worry

Voted!

I ignored this until now but I voted. Things that I voted for that weren't nominated and are all great:

The Great s2 - Hulu (wtf people, this show is...great)
Genera+ion s1 - HBO (RIP)
Love Life s2 - HBO
Made for Love s1 - HBO

Would probably have voted for Miracle Workers s3 but it's not yet on a service that I have access to.

28 ballots! Beat the rush and get yours in today so that I don't bother you over the weekend!

(BTW if you submitted a ballot and haven't heard back from me, I haven't seen it... please resend!)

glad you spammed this in the threads because i absolutely didnt see until right now! rushing a ballot together

Plz do!

i voted

Hi all! Need these in over the weekend please!

ok, I voted while waiting for sleeping pill to kick in. Added a write-in for "What If...?"

We're at 32 ballots and still at a point where a well placed #1 could knock something from the top 20 into the top 10 or vice versa

Huh, completely forgt about What If. Dont think Idve voted for it, but a couple of eps were ok.

As of today, we have received votes for 171 separate programs, which is around 6 unique shows per voter! It's a wide open race.

If you're gonna vote, and if you watched teevee this past year you should, please think about getting it done over the weekend so I can start cleaning up the bulk of tabulations!

OKAY TOMORROW IS THE LAST DAY TO VOTE!
34 ballots, we're looking for another 15 to make this relevant! 50 is relevant! I checked!
If you haven't voted yet, is it even a weekend? Do it now!

I had 17 ballots for Bacharach and it was the most relevant poll ILX has ever had.

otm

Elvis poll was similar turnout iirc

We're aiming high here.

just sent a haphazard ballot

Slapped one together. Feel good about it.

I think I'll do one tomorrow

Final day to vote!

Don’t make me individually call out everybody who took part last year and hasn’t voted!

As is typical for me, a lot of my '21 viewing was of series from '20 or earlier years. We get around to things when we get around to them. But I slapped together a ballot of things on the nomination list that I liked to varying degrees, fwiw.

Mmmmmmm likely need one more week to do organization

No worries, just curious

Yeah, i'm in a bit of a workstorm here so this may need to sit until late Feb/early March. apologies.

take all the time you need! we'll enjoy the rollout just as much then as we would now! (just promise you'll link it here so i don't miss it bc i never remember to check new answers)

Absolutely

Any status update on this yet?

LEAVE FORKS ALONE

no, my bad. I'll work on this over the weekend and see if we can get it rolling next week.

Have I missed the rollout or has it not happened yet?

Not yet. I assume forks has other stuff going on but I'll also add my non-pushy wish to see the results eventually

Yeah, looking forward to the results but no worries if it doesn't happen for another three, four or whatever months

Hi!

yeah i quit ilx for awhile. will be back soon

it's no frills but it should be up before the end of the year
ILX’s Top 77 Television and Streaming Video Series of 2021

yay forks! glad it's happening :)
