First bit of predicting. Here’s my guess for what will fill the two fan voters’ choice slots in each FMM category (vs. what I would have picked). I did do a little looking at what people have voted so far, but by no means a full counting.
Comedy
Prediction: Two of HIMYM, Big Bang Theory and Cougar Town. All have been on the bracket before and it looks like people might miss them with them gone.
Preference: Overall I’d plug Red Dwarf and Futurama (though I also nominated Go On). Out of the ones I predict could gather the votes...I have nothing against Cougar Town but I both BBT and HIMYM got old for me really quickly (and both fandoms are likely to get behind characters I dislike) so whatever. I just wish Red Dwarf could make it.
Teen
Prediction: Harry Potter and Friday Night Lights, HP because it’s HP and FNL because it looks like there’s still a lot of fan love for it.
Preference: I...seem to have already forgotten what I nominated. I know I nominated HP and might have thrown a vote to FNL too because even though I never made it past s2 it was a pretty good show, but I’ve forgotten my third nomination completely (and may be wrong about the second). But if I did vote for those two I ought to be happy they looked to have plenty of other support too.
Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Prediction: Avengers almost certainly, and it probably depends on if people realize BSG is a possibility for the last slot; if so probably that, if not The Hobbit seems to be making a bid (I hope if it is we can include LotR because The Hobbit didn’t have really any characters I straight up loved...maybe Gandalf).
Preference: I nominated Arrow, Avengers, and Journeyquest. So obviously I’m cool with Avengers and I don’t mind BSG still being a contender, I just felt like wasting my vote on JQ instead. Arrow may have an outside chance to make it too. I think I’ll probably be okay with what makes it here though.
Drama
Prediction: The Borgias probably, and maybe Leverage since it was on the ballot last year but not for the moment this time.
Preference: I nominated Bomb Girls (and was happy to see I wasn’t the only one), The Borgias and The Americans because I keep hearing good things about them and want to see what people use to entice more viewers to their fandom. I wish BG had a better chance but I really didn’t have any other thing I was invested in to throw my vote behind.

THG and HP get t include the books so if Middle Earth exists as more than ONE MOVIE we ought to be allowed a larger pool to choose from.
