My wife is a LaFem Nikita fan and I guess there's some web site where you can vote for the best TV show of all time. Firefly was at seventh place and Nikita at 8th, until the Nikita message board made a big push to put them over the top.

The discussion on the Nikita board was hilarious, with my wife having to explain to them what Firefly was.

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/ Was found.


She of course won't tell me where this site is, but I'm sure someone here knows, or it's been posted on here before, otherwise how did we get to seventh in the first place.

Let's show'em how it's done and put those uppity old Nikita fans back in their place.

Sidenote- Joss has all 3 shows in the top ten, now that's got to tell you something.

So, this voting is taking place at "some web site .com"? right I'll head over and vote.....
Nikita folk don't know firefly? Well, if competeing with them gets them curious....

That looks like the one. Everything fits, and I remember her saying you could vote once an hour. That has to be the one.

So how do we get around the once every hour thing. I tried deleting the cookie and clearing the cache, but that didn't seem to work. Any other ideas?

yah, but that has no effect.

It probably keeps track of IPs voting and only registers a givien IPs vote once per hour...

Isn't there a place on the net that you can go to and it will report random IP's for you.

Proxy or something like that?

hmm. perhaps I was wrong...

I just checked back and voted again and the totals remain unchanged.

It looks like maybe it's a static report that's automaticaly regenerated every so often or possibly even done by hand.

No real evidence wether back-button voting works at this point I guess.

I'm sorry, but any website with Xena at the top of the list just doesn't seem worth my internet time.

America loves a winner!


We're not only losing, we're no where to be seen!( Oh, there we are... 3% in the 2nd group of 5. )

Seems we've got a late start. Regardless, I voted.
