Very sad to see Bart Simpson’s Dracula (SUPER FUN HAPPY SLIDE!) go down, and Dial Z For Zombie (which I was expecting to win this whole thing just based on the “he was a zombie?” line…which was recycled next year with “we have to kill the boy…he’s a vampire?” in Dracula) was a tie-breaking vote away from being eliminated too, but all of the remaining episodes are respectable and I am glad to see remain in the tournament.

This round closes whenever I get around to tallying on Sunday.

4. Time & Punishment (5)

5. Hungry Are The Damned (1)

**Act 3** Bracket:

Act 1 & 3 are the strongest. One of them should win this. Raven vs. Cafeteria was a tough choice.
