#1 The final Frigid project poll!

Post by frigidmagi »

Yay, the last time! You should all know the drill. Our final 5 were chosen by having the largest voting support (that being more then one).

Burn Notice is the odds on favorite with Dark Angel being the dark horse (HA! Puns! Damn you Cameron!) candidate.

The way Burn Notice stories kept playing out was starting to grate on me and I'll have no more of it!

So I'll go with Dark Angel. I've watched it a few times but I never really got into it back then. Maybe you can enlighten me old self now. :razz:

I vote Dark Angel. It's a show filled with awesomeness... That may or may not be the cyberpunk/biopunk fanboy in my screaming for joy at the thought of it..

You're also a sucker for anything dark.

Dark Angel actually wasn't all that dark. It turned pretty shitty on short notice but particularly dark, the setting was not.

Burn Notice gets my vote. Then again, I haven't seen Dark Angel.

Stofsk, my good man, you are overly conservative. Farscape is at least twenty bazillion times better than Dark Angel.

It looks like I could cast a tie-breaking vote. I am now accepting bribes.

I'll politely disagree with Cyn and Stofsk on their points. I personally enjoyed Dark Angel more than what I've seen of Farscape. Not that I have anything against Farscape.

I do think it's funny that each poll I've put up has had more and more votes.

You should definitely vote for Burn Notice as the Anti-Tiebreaker. Guarantee an all-way-tie!

A cute princeling would be nice. Have him be about by age, short and lightly built, with very effeminate looks and voice. But he must be straight! I cannot corrupt him if he has no interest in girls.

What? You said that I could name a price!

Wouldn't corrupting him if he isn't straight be a lot more entertaining? Greater challenge and all that?
