On the tv.com main page you can find this poll, called "the best of 2007". Here are my picks, please let me know what yours are!
Show of the year
Family Guy
Friday Night Lights
Heroes
House
Lost
The Sopranos
Of these shows I watch Friday Night Lights, House, Lost and The Sopranos. If I have to chose the best show of 2007, it's a tie between Friday Night Lights and House. Lost was better this year than last year, but it couldn't compete with FNL and House at all. If I really have to choose between the two, I go with House.
Best new fall show
Kid Nation
Californication
Bionic Woman
Aliens in America
Reaper
Pushing Daisies
Of these shows I only checked out Californication. But I'm going to check out Pushing Daisies real soon, because I've heard so many great things about it. So, I can't choose yet
.
Best in genre - drama
Heroes
House
Grey's Anatomy
Lost
Damages
Dexter
Dexter is the only one of these I haven't checked out yet. House is the definite number one for me.
Best in genre - comedy
Scrubs
The Office
Weeds
My Name is Earl
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
30 Rock
Weeds without a doubt! I watch 30 Rock too sometimes, but Weeds is definitely the best.
Best in genre - action
24
Prison Break
Numb3rs
NCIS
CSI
CSI: NY
Wow, so many great shows. The only one I don't watch is 24 (except for the occasional episode). Prison Break isn't as good as it used to be. Numb3rs is good, but not my favorite. Choosing between NCIS, CSI and CSI: NY is very hard. I love them all for different reasons. But if I have to choose, I'm going for...... CSI: NY! Oh whatever, tomorrow I'll probably say NCIS or CSI
.
Best in genre - animation
Southpark
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Family Guy
The Simpsons
Metalocalypse
Frisky Dingo
I only watch The Simpsons. I'm not really a fan of the genre.
Best in genre - reality
America's Next Top Model
Dancing With the Stars
The Hills
Kid Nation
Meerkat Manor
Survivor
Don't watch any of these. The only reality show I like is Project Runway. The rest pretty much sucks.
Best in genre - science fiction
Supernatural
Battlestar Galactica (2003)
Stargate Atlantis
Eureka
Kyle XY
The 4400
I'm totally hooked on Kyle XY! I don't think it's a science fiction show per se, because I really hate sci-fi
.
Best of the worst
Hey Paula
Viva Laughlin
Nashville
Big Shots
Till Death
According to Jim
I really like According to Jim. How can it be under 'the worst'?? At least they are acting normal and not totally overdoing it like some other sitcoms.
Best guilty pleasure
The Girls Next Door
Gossip Girl
Jail
Caveman
American Idol
A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila
I don't watch any of these shows. And with good reason I suppose
.
Hottest actor
Dominic Purcell (Prison Break)
Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes)
Sendhil Ramamurthy (Heroes)
Taye Diggs (Private Practice)
Zach Levi (Chuck)
Tahmoh Penikett (Battlestar Galactica)
I totally don't agree with these choices, but if I have to choose: Taye Diggs. To give you an idea, my picks would have been: Carmine Giovanazo (CSI:NY), David Boreanaz (Bones), Eric Dane (Grey's Anatomy), Adrien Grenier (Entourage), Taylor Kitsch (Friday Night Lights), Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck), Doug Savant (Desperate Housewives), Rob Lowe (Brothers & Sisters), Michael Urie (Ugly Betty) ... to start with
.
Hottest actress
Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica)
Hayden Panettiere (Heroes)
Khandi Alexander (CSI:Miami)
Laura Vandervoort (Smallville)
Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds)
Sarah Shani (Life)
I'm not sure. I don't know them all. I guess Mary-Louise Parker, because I've seen her play often and she does look pretty. That Sarah Shani looks pretty too.
Best episode
The Sopranos "Made in America"
Babylon Fields - unaired pilot
Pushing Daisies "Pie-lette"
Family Guy "Blue Harvest"
Damages "Because I Know Patty"
Lost "Through the Looking Glass"
No doubts here! Through the Looking Glass is one of the best episodes ever. I swear I had to cry. And that doesn't happen often.
Best in dvd
Planet Earth: The Complete Collection
The Twilight Zone: The Complete Series
Twin Peaks: Definitive Gold Box Edition
Battlestar Galactica: Season One
The Colbert Report: Best of the Colbert Report
Family Guy: Freakin' Party Pack
I don't have any of these dvd's, but I'm really eager to buy The Best of the Colbert Report!
Best news story
Dr. Burke discharged from Grey's
CBS caves; Jericho lives
Lost ends in 2010
CW drops two favorites in short span
Aqua Teen is the bomb...scare
WGA: We're Striking
The last one, because it definitely affected the television industry the most. I also think the Jericho story was big, because it demonstrated how important the fans are and how much influence they have. CW dropping Veronica Mars affected me too, since it was one of my favorite shows. I also regretted Burke (Isaiah Washington) leaving Grey's. And Lost ending in 2010 was.. well, good to know I guess
. Until 2010 is long enough for a show like Lost. I hope there will be a killer series finale. I'm really looking forward to season four! The trailer got me all excited!
So, let me know what your picks are!
