I like Heroes, aside from the last season, which was kind of meh, but Fringe is amazing.

Both are good shows, but I thought Heroes deserves this, for the first 2 seasons, at least.

oh you swine!!!! puting these two together (i know its all random, just wanted to have a rant:P)

oh its a really hard choice, so i am thinking while i am typing. The problem, for me, is there have been other choices i have not been able to vote for and now my two favourite shows are up against each other

ok, decided. I am going for fringe, i loved heroes and i think it will win, so i am going to vote fringe then it does not feel dejected

Only saw the first episode of Fringe. Much better than Heroes.

Tied? Oh no :panic:

Don't forget, in case of a tie, we go to a tiebreak using stated votes.

wow!!! that i did not expect, i honestly thought heroes would walk it!!

i think part of the problem was Heroes got weaker as the series progressed whereas fringe seems to have got stronger

I think you are correct, Candy. However, I did vote for Heroes anyway.

I never actually saw Fringe but I watched Heroes from start to finish. I hated to see it canceled but I think they really got screwed by the writer’s strike. So I voted Heroes.

Fringe

Heroes was terribly one-dimensional. Glitzy but hollow. Like typical pulp and coldest marketing, it continually led you to expect that it was going somewhere, then resolutely tried to hold at peak of suspense.

Yeah, I voted like last week, but I didn't say so till I saw the tie and potential double tie. This result makes me happy. :) (Apologies, tho, Heroes fans.)

That's okay, path. Both are great shows and the fact that we had to go to a tiebreak means Heroes fans can't feel too bad. I do agree that while it started out in it's first two seasons strong and with a lot of potential, Heroes later got stuck in some kind of quagmire and petered off.

oh trust me it will still scare you, the fact that some of what they investigate is actually possible **shudders**
