Kill: Gravity Falls - I believe these are the last two needing cleansing.
Kill: Sym-bionic Titan - Same as above.
Kill: American Dad - Early seasons were bad. Heard it gets better, but meh.

Save: South Park- Further padding.
Save: Dragonball Z Kai - How DBZ should have been.

You should start posting a list of the remaining shows next round.
 
Kill: American Dad: A Family Guy-esque show that clicked with me even less than FG did.
Kill: Zatch Bell!: It's an okay anime. It has some good points, and some bad points. But it's getting to the stage where I'm voting for shows I consider mediocre and kinda generic now.
Kill: Batman: The Brave and the Bold: In my opinion, it's the second weakest modern Batman cartoon, beating only The Batman in terms of quality. I ignored the existence of Beware the Batman when it aired, so it might be weaker, but it hasn't even finished a full season; at this point, it would be unfair to judge it against the entirety of the other entries. Between TAS, TNBA, Beyond, THE, and BaB, BaB comes in at fourth for me. Humorous takes on the Batman franchise have worked in the past, that's the entire appeal of watching the old Adam West version of Batman. Even some of the older cartoons had silly moments that are classic. I just didn't like what the Brave and the Bold offered as a Batman cartoon.

Save: Dragon Ball Z Kai: Living the dream
Save: Paranoia Agent: Shrimp Baby told me to. Especially since "never seen it" is an awful reason when the entirety of the show is free on Youtube.

That last minute Archer snipe
;_;
 
It's in the OP, it just needs to be updated.
I mean a list of the remaining shows posted after each round, not what has been voted out. Saves people from having to check the OP if a show is still in.
Plus the spreadsheets are still available for viewing, so it would be a bit redundant. If anything, maybe add the remaining shows that haven't received a single vote either way to the remaining spreadsheets.
TheAbsolution posted the list in the 90s thread during rounds. It's easier to view.
 
Kill: Gravity Falls
Kill: Sym-bionic Titan
Kill; Batman, Brave and Bold

None of these shows ever really appealed to me, especially Batman, maybe I'm to old for this stuff.

Save: American Dad - The bad episodes are really bad but the good are fucking hilarious, more than make up for the bad episodes.
Save: Pokemon, just in-case.

I can start doing that again. It was more for my convenience because it's harder to post that on mobile.
 
Kill: American Dad (don't like MacFarlane)
Kill: Pokemon (this show needs 7 kills to get the equivalent of one kill now, and it's not even that great to begin with. there is no reason it should have this many saves. hell, any show shouldn't have this many. but now i have to waste a kill vote on it because apparently seeing it slide down to like -2 is unthinkable.)
Kill: Zatch Bell (mediocre)

Save: DBZ Kai (it's DBZ)
Save: Sym-Bionic Titan (because watch this)
 
Purification is going smoothly. Not sure if people aren't noticing or just don't care. 2 shows left!

Kill: Symbionic Titan-Purification
Kill: Gravity Falls-I love GF...but it must die for the greater good
Kill: The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack: Never thought I'd see Code Lyoko and El Tigre go before this, those were kinda good and this ranges between average and mediocre.
Save: The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy-One of the funniest shows to ever grace CN
Save: Codename: Kids Next Door-Same as Billy and Mandy, just not quite as funny

Kill: Zatch Bell! - Scary puppets from hell.
Kill: Pokemon - Waaaaaaaaay too many saves.
Kill: Dragonball Z Kai - It is a remake of a 90s show

Save: Batman The Brave and the Bold - Best Batman related thing ever.
Save: Gravity Falls - Other shows deserve to go before this does.
 
Time to make up from missing yesterday.
Kill: Dave the Barbarian- meh
Kill: Zatch Bell might as well kill it now.

Save: DBZ Kai (The offence will come eventually.)
 
Kill: Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack
Kill: Paranoia Agent
Kill: American Dad

Never seen Paranoia Agent. I hate Stan's selfishness. Flapjack was sort of creepy to me.

Save: Pokemon
Save: King of the Hill
 
Kill: Gravity Falls
Kill: Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
Kill: DBZ Kai
Save: Pokemon
Save: Zatch Bell!

Now that I rewatch Pokemon on netflix, I see its a really creative and a one-of-a-kind show. Underrated series.
 
kill: dbz kai - this will die
kill: teen titans - Mehhhhhh
kill: Johnny Bravo - Eh
save: pokemon - didn't care for the games, but liked the original show
save: the proud family
 
kill: dbz kai
kill: powerpuff girls
kill: Sym-bionic Titan
save: pokemon
save: Death Note

Pokemon is better than all these shows. Ash Ketchum is a well written character. DBZ Kai must die.

I think that i'll institute my soft cap rule now. The soft cap is going to be -6 or higher net.
So for this round, the max for any show will be -6.

So for this round you cannot vote to save Pokemon or KOTH.

but people can still vote to kill Pokemon and KOTH?

So if a show reaches -6, we can't save show in the next round. But everyone else can still kill this show?
 
Kill: Pokemon
Kill: Zatch Bell!
Kill: Dragon Ball Z Kai

None of those shows should still be here.

Save: Batman the Brave and the Bold
Save: Dave the Barbarian

Two awesome underrated shows.
 
List the shows 789shadow!

Kill: Sym-bionic Titan - Once it is gone, we will have a pure list.
Kill: Batman: Brave and the Bold - I disagree with what someone said a few pages back; serious Batman is best Batman.
Kill: Powerpuff Girls - Top 10 in the 90s thread.

Save: The Boondocks - Further padding.
Save: Dragonball Z Kai - How DBZ should have been.

Kill: Pokemon: It should not have a net vote of -8. And we all know why it has a net vote of -8, and it's certainly not because it is an amazing show. That one line from one of the specials is pretty great though.

Save: Dragon Ball Z Kai: I'm thinking it's gone this round thanks to the Ham-Hams. But I might as well give it a save anyway, for old time's sake.
Save: Home Movies: I need another save vote, so I might as well give it to something I like.

The remaining shows list has been copied to the round post, so the list that this post originally was is now redundant.
 
sounds fair to me. if you don't want that to be a problem then don't raise the cap that high.

If Pokemon/King of the Hill lovers (which there are many) knew this rule ahead of time, then maybe it wouldn't end up passing the -6 cap. It's not exactly fair to then pull out this new rule all of a sudden, which retroactively puts two shows in danger.

This danger is that people can no longer throw a save vote. And yet people can still add kills. Say theoretically, Samurai Jack has more than -6. Then a bunch of hateful Samurai Jack haters can vote to kill that show into elimination.

In fact such a rule could be abused. If Samurai Jack has -5. Some devious men could then purposely save Samurai Jack until it was past the cap. Then in the next round, Samurai Jack can no longer defend itself. And thus, it's eliminated into the ground.

That doesn't make sense.

Ham-Hams disapprove.

So unless this new rule is disavowed, the Ham-Hams are going to go after Samurai Jack?

Hm... With the current amount of voters that's not gonna happen anyway...

Maybe better if one could still vote to save, but as long as it goes over -6 total with both the kills and saves it just stays at -6.

Although, I think there isn't a need for any additional rule changes, I do like the option you described.

Keep the show at -6. Still allow the show to be saved or killed. Tally the votes up. Even if the show ends up getting -7, revert it back to -6. Much better way to go about this I reckon.

I think I'll go alphabetically this round. I don't have any big qualms with most shows on the list or I haven't seen them so it's hard to pick what to vote. I do some research for next round.

789shadow you made an error in the vote tallies last round on your spreadsheet. You list "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" and "Billy and Mandy" as two separate shows and separated their votes, but they're actually the same show. "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" should have 2 saves -2 total, and "Billy and Mandy" should be deleted.

You should do more research into Avatar. Cause it's a top 10 show.
