I have a guess for the 3 on my list that didn’t crack the top 300.

 

[Gr00vus]

I kid you not, I'm more excited for this countdown and the ensuing discussion than I was for the Superbowl.

That's a pretty low bar.

 

[Scoresman]

Count by Genre.

This is pretty rough as some shows straddle multiple genres.

Comedy 101
Drama 81
Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror 34
Documentary 21
Animated 19
Crime 15
Reality 8
Action 7
Talk Show 4
Sports TV 3
Game Show 3
War 2
Childrens 2

 

[KarmaPolice]

How many #1's don't crack the top 200?

3

Those must be for shock value.

Or some people from outside America like shows that arent American

Wait, they make tv shows in other countries?

 

[Todem]

Below are the number of shows on each list that made the top 200.

If you submitted but dont see your name below, please let me know!!

Gally 45

It's more than I thought would make it and I am having a hard time guessing the 45 that are in the top 200. I can pretty easily assume about 25 but after that I have no idea.

You and I have pretty much the same taste.....we tied with 45.

 

[Eephus]

Or maybe the bottom of the homogenous lists list are the folks who our fellow FBGs will thank for introducing them to myriad new shows to binge with gratitude

or I just have bad taste.

on a more serious note, there are a ton of shows that I know will be on that that I have not watched and thus did not list. I don't have a ton of "nostalgia" picks but age likely plays a bit of a factor, I think most of you were tweens and teens in the 80's while I was not. Anyways looking forward to seeing my 16% of shows represented!

shout to Eephus, steelerfan1 and Shaft41 for joining me in such elite company.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Interesting stat, but I forgot that we were really doing 200 for the countdown, but that turned to 300. I was surprised at my 58/70 in the 300, but I wouldn't be surprised if 35 of them are in the first set of 100.

He only submitted 30 shows.

Now that we're doing top 300, everyone's number one is now included.

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

Now that we're doing top 300, everyone's number one is now included.

And therefore how many #2s did not make it?

I had your post from yesterday in mind as we all pepper him questions about stats all day today.

1

 

[Scoresman]

The number 1 and 2 shows are truly in a league of their own. They are 600 points higher than the number 3 show. The next highest difference between spots is about 200 and happens only once.

I'm not revealing individual results like this. You just have to wait and see!

 

[Gally]

As things happen or more "stats" are posted it just leads to more and more questions for ways to look at the stats.

 

[KarmaPolice]

The number 1 and 2 shows are truly in a league of their own. They are 600 points higher than the number 3 show. The next highest difference between spots is about 200 and happens only once.

I would place pretty good odds on neither being on my list. I have 4 in mind that would be heavily voted on, and 3 are not on mine.

Thanks for doing these, watching different shows this weekend got me way more invested in this one.

 

[Scoresman]

I think a lesson learned from this is that the number of items I need everyone to rank is dependant on how many lists there are. With 50 lists, I really didnt need 70 from everyone. I had no idea when this started that I would receive so many lists.

#300 - Keeping Up with the Kardassians​

Score is the total number of points the show scored.

[shuke]

OK, all lists are in and the rankings can no longer be influenced.

The one show on my list I guarantee is only on my list: Super Dave

Super Dave Osborne cracks me up to this day. When Mr. T guest starred....classic!

I had Bizarre on my list for a bit but it got knocked out.

 

[shuke]

Do we really want a top 300 countdown?

No. Part of the enjoyment of the countdown is not knowing what did/didn't make it.

Was the *** intentional or no? Well-played either way.

Interesting start. So is this your #1 show or your #70? Also. How do you get to 87 points with ranks of 1, 26, and 45? Same for average. Just making sure I understand the secret sauce.

Guess I should have read that this was just for formatting. Doh!

This is not really the # 300 show. It's just a fake example to explain the formatting. But I'll admit I chose that show to see if anyone freaked out over it.

Rank is where you placed the show on your list. Score is the number of points it scored for the tabulation. So my # 1 ranked show would score 70 points.

So my wife watches the Kardashians.

I love Star Trek, so I call them the Kardassians. She's never laughed at the joke.

The Mole!! That was a late add to my list. One of the few shows like that I got into, and of course the one that didn't go for decades.

Was this 2 and 2 on Binky’s list?

(I know - different show)

 

[whoknew]

Craig Ferguson is really funny. I didn't watch it - but all the YouTube clips I saw were very funny.

 

[zamboni]

Never really watched it except for Donna Mills, but Knots Landing had a good, very ‘80s theme song:

- YouTube

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

@simey Did Donna Mills join the cast later?

 

[Don Quixote]

Thought Drunk History would get some other love, but I’m okay with the title as the forum’s biggest fan. I mean, sure, you’ve seen Hamilton, but have you seen a drunk off his *** Lin-Manuel Miranda talking about Hamilton and Burr?

It was on my short list just outside my top 70.

 

[AAABatteries]

WandaVision would be in my list of most surprising shows - I really liked it when I didn’t have much expectations at all. Didn’t make my list as it’s only one season and I didn’t love it enough to rewatch it.
