The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Arrested Development

Which is the best fantasy book series ever, even though the series really really let it down

The Office (US) is much much better.

War of the Worlds

There are many shows I don't care for, but this is one that I have true antipathy toward. I cannot see how people like this show.

Discworld

That's what she said!

If this isn't on the list, it's a disgrace.

Everyone is in, so let's reveal.

Only one strike this time.

As D1iab predicted, it's for Bolt, as the first Sopranos episode was before January 2000.

I don't know if D1iab thought that Mad Men was in the #2 spot, but that's where it landed.

Almost everything else was in the top 40 of the respective list.

The one exception was Discworld. For some reason, the books were ranked separately. This confused people when the list came out too.

Since there are two books in the top 100, I'll rule the guess as a correct answer and take both off the list.

You may make your guesses for round 3 now. Reveal in 36 hours or earlier if I get all the answers in before then.

Fahrenheit 451

I'm surprised The Martian Chronicles ranked so high. I read that in high school and didn't think it was super well-regarded. I do remember liking it quite a bit.

The Time Machine

Deadwood

the crown

Mad Men was not what I had for #2 btw, but I'm now quite confident that what I thought it could be is not on the list at all.

This is what I was wondering was #2. Mainly because it’s mine.

I thought it might be, you ****ing **********.

30 Rock

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

Yeah, glad I taught you that ****in' word.

Undisputed #1 obv

Stranger in a Strange Land

Lost
