If there's no objections than I'm fine allowing Sherlock and Luther to be eligible. The 3 season rule is there more to prevent shows like GOT that will rack up well in excess of 3 seasons getting in just after a good first/first 2 seasons. Prison Break situation. BBC Shows are different though because they don't rack up the same level of seasons and less frequent.

If there's any votes for Sherlock and Luther then make them after this post. If you posted anything before than re YES it to confirm.

I'm gonna keep it to the simple 2 categories for now. I'll maybe add more categories down the road but not straight away.

It's only a 1 season show isn't it? If it's finished then it doesn't need 3 seasons to be eligible.

"Rescue Me is an American dramedy"

I will

Nomination list updated

Community
The Office UK

Although it had some serious moments i'd classify Rescue Me as more of a comedy IMO. Wouldn't mind getting a second opinion on this.

Def voting for Band of Brothers then. Probably the one thing i'd save from my DVD collection if there was a fire or something.

kusksu · 11-27-2012, 01:09 PM

YES for Luther and Sherlock then

kieranwwe · 11-27-2012, 01:22 PM

I'll add a YES for Sherlock

Also i know this may sound petty but Monk is far more Drama than a Comedy, it has comedic moments but it seems odd being lined up against the likes of Peep Show and The Simpsons.

Oh and YES to the Simpsons, just because it is HOF worthy.

Just realised i haven't voted for Comedy at all bar black adder :P

Yes:
The Simpsons
Fraiser
Peep Show
Fault Towers
Only Falls and Horses

No:
Garth Marenghi's Darkplace
