_Glee  
So You Think You Can Dance_  
The entire Joss Whedon Canon  
_Grimm  
Once Upon a Time_  
Pretty much anything that you have to pay premium cable for (_Entourage, Curb Your Enthusiasm, etc._)  
Pretty much anything having to do with auctions, pawning, fishing, truck-driving, alligator-wrangling, etc.  
Pretty much anything having to do with fashion competitions, modeling competitions, cooking competitions, etc.

…and dozens of others too numerous to mention.

Well, I’m happy to report that I have no idea! That’s one I’ll be voting for (in any incarnation) as one I have never seen Episode The First of. Others may clarify for you, but I’m glad to see the idea of taking those “winners” in those other polls as a basis for how many others of us are yet to be impressed with them, is something worth pursuing.

Even though I oversaw the voting and summarizing in those threads, I was pretty much in the dark about the Big Winners. And it would be comforting to learn that I’m not alone in that respect.

I went with the 2005 Dr. Who; I hope I’m right. 😃

Great! Thanks for the follow-up. I’m anxious to see how this shapes up.

Since the OP has restarted this thread in poll form, I’m closing this.
