@Dirty Schwein at least you no longer have to count the votes!Prison Break now sitting on 36 points from 40 votes @Dirty Schwein
Television RedCafe's Favourite TV Shows (Round 4)
- Thread starter Dirty Schwein
- Start date
In the final I assume everyone picks a top 10 from 30, but you should also give everyone 2 veto picks who get -5 points each.
Introduce a little anarchy.
Introduce a little anarchy.
To be honest, this would be funny and I would be up for it if people want that.
I think it'd be really interesting to see how the final list ends up with and without it.
Could still have the 'official' one without and just see how much the vetoes change it.
Do you want my wife to divorce me?
Yeah on second thought do the vetoes and just have one list.

Kinda.
You survived that 250 quid haircut mate so I wouldn't worry too much.
True. I do get away with a lot. Must be my chiseled abs.

Just tallied it all up. Spoiler alert, not looking good for Prison Break 
Just setup the next two groups. I hate RNG

Another nail in the coffin!
Bunch of fecking nerds in this thread. None of the voted shows have brilliant characters like T-Bag, Avocado, Linc The Sink & Tweener
They may fare better in the 'Redcafe's Favourite TV Characters' TournamentBunch of fecking nerds in this thread. None of the voted shows have brilliant characters like T-Bag, Avocado, Linc The Sink & Tweener
Haha yeah. We got music albums next and then will need to get more creative after that.They may fare better in the 'Redcafe's Favourite TV Characters' Tournament
The scene where creepy T-Bag picks up a woman in the middle of the day by talking about having lettuce stuck in his teeth lives rent free in my head. She goes from totally uninterested to ending up in bed with him shortly after.
I think albums will be spread so thin. Music is so much more subjective I think.
Albums I absolute adore will probably get like 2 votes
I'm not really looking forward to that one. My music taste is objectively bad and nothing I like will get any votes apart from my own.I think albums will be spread so thin. Music is so much more subjective I think.

I will structure that one by decades so should be no moaning. But people will still find a reason to moan I'm sure
I laugh every time I remember the scene where the prison Aircon breaks and T-Bag says "Damn it's too hot in here"... Points to a black guy and says "this morning, he was white"
It did do well! It made it into the group stages! The Bureau didn't make the group stage and anyone that watched it knows that The Bureau is to Prison Break what Michaelangelo is to my 4-year-old niece.
I just want it to do well

I love community, but the idea it pushed Deadwood as far as it did is just crazy.

Yeah it's just your music taste... and nothing elseI'm not really looking forward to that one. My music taste is objectively bad and nothing I like will get any votes apart from my own.

No it's really REALLY bad. It makes things such as Alex Kidd, Con Air and Spartacus seem like The Witcher 3, The Godfather 2 and The WireYeah it's just your music taste... and nothing else
My joke was you have bad taste in everythingNo it's really REALLY bad. It makes things such as Alex Kidd, Con Air and Spartacus seem like The Witcher 3, The Godfather 2 and The Wire
Hmmm...My joke was you have bad taste in everything
Game: Alex Kidd
Movie: Con Air
TV Show: Spartacus
Musician: Joji
Album: Tranquillity Based Hotel & Casino
Football Team: Luton Town
I think you might have a point
My cousins Loby Goby and Doby just called saying they weren't able to log in but their votes are exactly the same as me.
Tranquility Base is a brilliant album, the only time I don't feel like I'm being assaulted by Loaded magazine when I listen to Arctic Monkeys.Hmmm...

Yeah that's the only respectable album I like. The rest on my top 5 list are too embarrassing to say.
How can a show be in the GOAT running when it had at least one shit season, or a shit finale, or multiple shit seasons? It would be like a cake-baking show where there was secretly a giant dog turd within the cake, and one of the judges gets a mouthful of dogshit while the others get angel food cake.
The Simpsons get a pass because they have had so many brilliant seasons, brilliant episodes within bad seasons, brilliant moments within bad episodes, and they've been around for 30+ years, they have seen off all challengers. There's almost no joke the Simpsons haven't tried first. There's a line in "Dodgeball" where Ben Stiller gets hit in the face and says, "You made me bleed my own blood." And everyone laughed and pointed to that being an example of how great that shitty, shitty movie was. Except it was a joke in The Simpsons about 15 years before (I have a book that summarizes each episode with standout jokes, the couch gags, the blackboard writing, guest appearances, and so on).
Group 5:
1. The Simpsons - discussed above
2. Twin Peaks - season 1 was must-watch TV, inspired watching parties, was mesmerizing. Season 2 was shit.
3. Peep Show -
4. Lost - First 2 or 3 seasons were insanely addictive. Then they shit the bed. Then rolled in the shit. Then tried to give you a hug.
5. Battlestar Galactica - great show whose ending was ruined by writers' strike, making it nonsensical. Like being in the Indy 500 and leading the entire race, and as you go into the final lap you decide to smoke a joint, you catch your car on fire, it explodes, and you die half a mile before the finish line.
Group 6:
1. Futurama
2. The Expanse - the cast drives me batty. What fecking accents are they doing?
3. Stranger Things - feck off. Season 1 was a Stephen King's Greatest Hits. Every season after was the dog who caught the car it was chasing and had no fecking clue what to do with it. Masking the actors' ages and heights with silly-ass hairstyles and clothes, and a bunch of anachronisms killed it, then Billy and fecking Max desecrated its grave. I liked David Harbour, the wacky conspiracy dude, and Eleven. Everyone else, no.
4. Breaking Bad - some amazing episodes, an overall great story, but individual episodes were so slow it was coma inducing.
5. Prison Break - ha ha eat shit Schweiny.
