Are non-fiction series or variety/game shows allowed?


I think non-fic/doc should be fine with everyone. Variety (SNL, etc) is interesting... I imagine... yes?

Not sold on game shows, but if there's a consensus, sure.

Thoughts everyone?

I certainly included variety shows (K&P, Carol Burnett, etc) so I'm certainly in favor of their inclusion

I've never watched much in the way of game shows so I didn't include any, but I don't object to including them personally.

Good, if it was all fiction that would cut off like 20 shows


I understand not including game/competition/hidden camera shows cause that's where it differs considerably from other (scripted) fare, though Legends of the Hidden Temple would be a surefire top ten if that was allowed

I’ve not included any game shows or talk shows as I don’t have particular favourites. Though I think they should be allowed (unless the poll is changed to “ best scripted tv series”)

Where I would draw the line is live events. Don’t wanna see The Superbowl in any of your lists Smile

I don't see why this would be an issue and definitely will have game shows on my list.

Oh jeez, the repercussions are starting Laughing

Aight, game shows are a yes I suppose.

But yeah, nothing like the superbowl, NHL, sports n stuff, the Oscars, etc (non-episodic stuff).

I see no reason why not.

Those are all classified as "TV Special" on IMDb so are ineligible by the original pitch for rules. So a fair call on your part I think.

This looks like a really interesting poll. I’m in.

This is going to take some thought. I’d have to have Brian Cranston for breaking bad in there and maybe Martin sheen for the west wing.

Jodie comer in killing eve was insanely good as is Lauren cohen in walking dead.

Going off into a darkened room to cogitate my final choices. This may take some time
