'Can't respect the editorial choices.' LMAO. Sorry but if you're a site for the show as a whole, you need to be as unbiased as possible. That is not unbiased. That's using hate to disguise his own agenda. Transparent!

It's hilariously pathetic that he's complaining about people not respecting his editorial choices and at the same time claiming that he HAD to add Felicity to the poll because that's what people wanted and who was he to argue with them? Does he even realize what he's saying?

Thanks @lemotomato & @looptab for filling me in. I don't really follow that site beyond here. Glad the resolution was to eliminate them both. Love them or hate them or anything in between they are not villians.

Yesterday he made a comment where he basically contradicted himself in the same sentence. I politely pointed it out to him. My comment magically disappeared. But he respects ALL fans.

I've had comments on that site disappear. Mild comments without any offensive language that respectfully disagree with reviews and their versions of what happened on screen. A friend who posted a comment praising EBR & SA's performance in Dark Waters also disappeared. She sent me what she posted and she just called their acting fantastic (this was in the best episode poll). Still baffled why or how that merited a deletion.

Craig repeatedly posted in the comments that Felicity is a villain for killing the people at Havenrock. But of course he's going to hide behind the "hundreds" of write-in votes from Reddit instead of just admitting his bias.

His use of the word "worship" tells me everything that is to know about his views on Felicity and her fans. It paints Felicity fans as irrational and cult-like, which is typical gaslighting language in fandom, separating the "rational" "logical" "real fans" from the cray-cray.

To a commenter wondering why people were still taking the time to complaon endlessly about the show if they supposedly hate it and stopped watching: "It's the purpose of the site, discuss the show we love/d". To same commenter, asking why they found Andy 'annoying', the next day: "I don't have to justify my opinion". Ok then... 

By the way, I have a crack theory that the user in question, who replies to every.single.comment. is actually Guggenheim. Or Stephen. LoL

Wait, is Craig the same guy for KSite that links promo pics for many shows? Because if he is, I'm not giving him clicks on KSite anymore.

Same guy. I was once irl friends with him after meeting him through Smallville. Present Me gives big ups to Past Me for distancing myself from him because I wasn't comfortable with some of the things he said about women. Seems not much has changed.

Yes. This dude has individual sites for pretty much every superhero show, plus an overall TV site. Places to avoid like the plague:

ksitetv.com
kryptonsite.com
greenarrowtv.com
flashtvnews.com
dclegendstv.com
gothamsite.com
herosite.net
daredeviltv.net
shieldsite.net

The publisher of an online poll should be the one to set (legitimate) eligibility criteria for each of its voting categories.

I'm always undecided as to whether or not to vote in GATV polls.  On the one hand, it's a clearly biased site that I don't want to promote.  On the other hand, it is (I believe) still a site that Arrow knows about, so I don't want its poll results to be incorrectly skewed.

3. Felicity Smoak, Arrow

She doesn’t kick literal butt like Thea does, but Felicity Smoak is nonetheless, a badass. She just has a different way of saving the day. And that’s perfect. We can’t all be the literal superheroes. We don’t want to. And every girl needs a role-model.

*  *  *
Couple: Oliver x Felicity (Olicity)
TV show: Arrow
What brings them together: Oliver requires the assistance of a tech specialist which leads him right into the office of Felicity Smoak.
What tears them apart: Oliver lying to Felicity, his fiancée at the time, about his son—decimating the trust their relationship was built upon.
Moment we started shipping them: In episode 1x14, “The Odyssey,” Felicity finds a wounded Oliver in the backseat of her car, and—together with Diggle—saves his life.
Swoonworthiest moment: “He had you and he was going to hurt you,” Oliver tells Felicity in episode 2x07. “There was no choice to make.” Endless heart-eyes.

I would be a little concerned about Olicity's showing in the TV Scoop Awards, if not for the fact that that it is being dominated by The 100, POI and Shadowhunters in the 'big' polls. At least we are doing better then Outlander currently. LOL

The 100 fans have a point they want to make, nothing's going to stop them. I daresay if they killed Lexa off last year, I'm pretty sure the SOTY award would've gone to Clexa...

And with the whole "Bury your gays" phenomenon that's happening, I'm not surprised with the results.

I had a look at the polls earlier and was like DAMN, Lexa/Clexa are basically going to win everything. Impressive.

I guess this is their last chance too because next year they probably won't be in the running.

Link to comment

I expected/expect The 100 to take everything. That doesn't surprise me at all, even POI and Shadowhunters doesn't. It's more the showing of heavy-hitters like Outlander. Some couples are only sitting at 0%. I didn't expect it to be so lopsided. I'm wondering if some fandoms are voting for same sex couples as a show of support.

WHO IS THE MOST BELOVED FEMALE TV CHARACTER FROM THE ’00S ONWARDS? VOTE!

That my friend is a hard poll. The list is pretty comprehensive & well chosen. I loved to many of those ladies for so many different reasons!! It is an honor for FS to be included in such company.

I really had trouble deciding who to vote for. I went with my gut and chose Sydney Bristow. However, even my gut was having a hard time making a choice.

Very hard poll. I like many of those characters including Felicity. I managed to cut it down to a choice between Buffy Summers and Veronica Mars. My final decision was to vote for Veronica.

Even if Arrow won, they'd probably still find a way to get Barry or Kara in the photo.

Considering they put all of the Chicago 'X' shows together I'm sure if Arrow somehow wins it will become a Flarrow/Masks cover. (However if Flash or Supergirl win it will be just them on the cover...)

Remember the Design & Trend's 2016 Fan Favorite TV Awards where the site gave no mechanism for voting (posted above)? Well, it looks like they're doing each voting category as a separate poll...

First poll is up - there are actually 5 tv shows in this category, despite the headline, including Arrow...

It seems odd to me that they didn't specify what kiss they mean.  We were actually blessed with several nice Olicity kisses in 4A.  I dug the Yin Yang kiss particularly.  That said, I don't follow most of the other shows so it is hard to know what makes that couple's kiss so awesome.
