QUICK NOTE: I work pretty much every day this week except Christmas and the hours are literally morning hours one day, night the next, and so on. I don't want to go on break on this segment yet, but I might be off a bit getting new nominations up this week.
Last Time: The Lonely Island>-2
And now we re-nominate the very first item that was ever nominated in the original series:
King of the Hill is an American animated series created by Mike Judge and Greg Daniels, that ran from January 12, 1997 to September 13, 2009 on Fox. It centers on the Hills, a small-town Methodist family in Arlen, Texas. It attempts to retain a realistic approach, seeking humor in the conventional or mundane aspects of everyday life.
Judge and Daniels conceived the series after a run with Judge's Beavis and Butt-head on MTV, and the series debuted on the Fox Network on January 12, 1997, becoming a hit early on. The series' popularity has also led to syndication around the world, including every night on Cartoon Network's late night programming block Adult Swim. The show has risen to become one of FOX's longest-running series, and the second longest-running American animated series, behind The Simpsons. In 2007, it was named by Time magazine as one of the top 100 greatest television shows of all time. The title theme was written and performed by The Refreshments. King of the Hill has won two Emmy Awards and has been nominated for seven since its inception.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules-
The idea is simple. I will (at least make an attempt to) post a TV Show, a movie, a comedian, or something of another ilk each day. I will also provide a description ala wikipedia and a youtube link to a clip should one be available. All you need to do is simply vote whether you believe the item is funny or not. If you vote "funny", the item will gain 1 point. If you vote "not funny" the item loses a point. The total score at the end of the voting period will determine where that item is on the leaderboard. After 20 days, I will then crown champions for each subject (TV Show, Movie, Comedian, Other), an overall champion (highest score of all) and an eternal jobber (worst score of all). I will continue to run the thread, but I will keep track of what items we think are the funniest in each subject.
I have now added a "middle ground" vote. This way you can participate in the voting even if you have no idea what is being nominated. The catch being that no points will be added or subtracted.
I have also added "Hilarious" and "Horrible" to the mix. This will add and subtract 2 points from an item, respectively. This is so a hardcore fan (or hater) of a show can have a bit more say for an item they enjoy (or not enjoy) instead of having the same level as someone who might just be a casual viewer.
One other thing I allow is the nomination of items from you, the wrestlecrappers. If you shoot me a PM of something you want nominated, I might possibly put it up, provided it follows a few ground rules (more info below). I will say that spamming me with the same nomination will pretty much ruin your chances of it getting a shot, and so will being a jerk if your nomination isn't ran. I do not play favorites with nominations, not by item nor the users that submit them, I nominated several items by reader request that I absolutely despised the last time around and left off several things I would have put at the top of my own list. Might I also add that I save the PMs of most requests, only deleting them when I have fulfilled all requests within OR if it breaks one of the request rules. I like to revisit them if I am short on ideas. Just because something you request isn't nominated right away does not mean it will be left off completely.
