Not everyone on this list may know that the main reason Trapper John MD is crawling into the Top 40 is that the star, Pernell Roberts, was one of the original Cartwright sons on, you guessed it, Bonanza. He played Adam, the oldest son, and left the show after a few seasons. So that means Bonanza fans are supporting at least 3 shows: Bonanza, Ponderosa and Trapper John MD. I also know (from lurking on one of their lists) that a lot of them are fans of Star Trek (OS and TNG).

sorry, I've been a little off the weather lately and haven't posted. However I voted even more and Lexx got a nice 253 votes today, while Firefly almost beated 1000! I hope it's not an almost tomorrow.
I'm going to the Farscape bored to offer them a deal now. Gunsmoke is just another motive for me to go there and these newbies from down below look pretty scary with their 300+ per day

The Vomitting was directed at Brownshirts, the muscle behind facism in the WWII era.
Referring to Browncoats, (that's us) a very loose affiliation of folk who don't want the feds interfering with them, who can't even get 500 people to each cast two votes in a day (that would make 1,000 votes, a mark we haven't hit in a while); as among the most structured, organized and oppressive political/military machines in history drew a rather indignant excalmation, "Indeed".
I was attempting to rouse the ire of my fellow Browncoats at being referred to as Brownshirts. Rather like the reposting of comments made on certain other boards that thought they had a chance at beating us, and referred to 'Squashing Firefly like a bug'.

Top 10 + BSG; I -think- I've correctly made the adjustment for x-files passing QaF; but feel free to advise if you think the numbers look odd...

BSG 14690 449 8,732 380

We had a nice above average "close" rate yesterday on both #1 and #2.

For the nominations...
The Little House on the Prairie has caught on fire... they've been running over 149+ votes a day for the past three. To be honest, I thought "Combat" was going to pass them and be the next top40; however, if they can keep up the vote rate and Combat does not rally, Little House will be the next top40 entry.

Space 1999 should pop into the top 10 of the nominations list tomorrow.

Mr. Rogers continues his slow climb up the charts.
Sesame Street is, and has been, mired at 21 votes for a while.
The Electric Company hasn't been paid in a while and still only has it's original nomination vote.

... Personally, I never watched the Electric Company much, I would be hard pressed to vote for it. On the other hand, if I saw that Sesame St. was starting to move... well... I just might vote for that.

Sorry, Flattop. I guess that's what I get for not reading the thread thoroughly.

This is another show that might get more Bonanza support once it gets closer to the Top 40: The star, Michael Landon, played the youngest Cartwright son, Little Joe.

Ah, and since Trapper John has popped up to top40, that frees them up to nominate Little House for Little Joe. This might well explain things...
