There's a common sense clause in the rules though. If consensus is that people are fine with it then I'm fine with it too.

I think the spirit of that category should include Band of Brothers, and War in general. Anybody have any objections to expand that category to include War as a genre?
I'd have picked BoB there

I think zurvan should be the boss. it's good to have a boss in games like this. I'm good with what zurvan decides... but i'd recommend just going by IMDb to avoid trouble over future picks

Moving along, I'll take The Shield for my Police Procedural.

And I'll open up round 4 by taking Seinfeld for the Sitcom category.

I think it's now time to answer Filthy's question from before, about a show that was a global sensation.

It spawned a multitude of mediocre to bad copycats. It spurred endless discussion online, as people tried to figure out the answers to such pertinent questions as "why is there a polar bear" and "what the **** was that ending all about". In between that, though, we got something new for TV - a show where every episode mattered to the story. It got lost a little bit here and there, but overall was a fantastic story.

I'll select LOST in SFFHAW

I think this one is going to have to go in the Wild Card category as it doesn't fit anywhere else.

Jam

If you've not heard of this then oh boy are you in for a treat.

The show is a sketch show from the mind of Chris Morris that makes BrassEye seem like a children's show.

I'm going to link a few clips, but do not watch them if you're easily disturbed, upset or triggered. None of these are safe for work or easily offended company.

Seems like that could’ve been saved for your last pick of the draft, but maybe I’m wrong.

Completely agree, but I've really got nothing prepared for this.

I'm drafting for fun rather than optimal drafting.

I call it "filthy style"

I'm fine with it. I'm not too worried about getting sniped in most of these categories anyway.

Don't really have a strategy but I'll pick the original Twilight Zone In the Sci-fi category.
