TV Duos Bracket – Round Two, Day 24

Our final day of round two includes the matchup I’ve been anticipating (dreading?) since I first saw the pairings that came with the randomized list. Shawn and Gus of Psych and Troy and Abed of Community were the duos who inspired this entire event, so to have one of them eliminated this early is a bitter blow. But you have to choose – which is your favorite? Also today, the Gilmore Girls, Lorelai and Rory, face Harvey and Mike from Suits.

Our fifth matchup of round two just finished – be sure to check out the results and all our current matchups here! The winning duos will advance to round 3, which starts tomorrow! (P.S. Be sure to stop by our new show poll as well!)

TV Duos Bracket – Round One Eliminations

A total of 32 duos (all pictured above) were eliminated during round one. Some very nearly won: Friends’ Chandler and Joey lost by only two votes to Angela and Hodgins from Bones. With others, the vote was more decisive. Harvey and Mike from Suits won the highest percentage of votes in any round one matchup (96%), thanks to tweets from cast, the show’s official Twitter, and more than 50 fans (they were actually losing to Mork and Mindy by a few votes well into the final day). That poll also had the most votes cast in a round one matchup as well. The second most decisive vote was Merlin and Arthur’s victory over Nikita and Michael (93% to 7%), primarily due to fans sharing on Tumblr.

All of that clearly shows that your sharing efforts can make a HUGE difference in polls like these! So as round two continues, be sure to keep sharing! Below is a full list of round one eliminations (or you can view the updated chart here). Which duos do you think should have gone on to round two?

In our fourteenth day of competition (only two more days remain for round one!), two classic shows square off as Klink and Schultz from Hogan’s Heroes face Cagney and Lacey!
