The
Best Fanbase is an award that we're
breaking down into two
subcategories, and we're focusing
today on answering the following:
What show has the most enthusiastic
fans?
The way we settled on the following
nominees was mostly just the end
result of us sitting down and looking
at some of the shows that drew the
biggest reaction from readers here at
the site all year long, especially in
terms of discussion. These have also
been the shows that we've been the
most excited to cover for that same
reason.
Big Brother (CBS) - "Big Brother"
fans are some of our most loyal here,
and they proved it this summer by
sticking with what was a terrible
season at times with all the racist
remarks and the bad gameplay. But
even still, they found fun things to
talk about in terms of strategy. In our
mind, this is a base that most people
out there are probably the most
ignorant about; no one realizes that
the diehard fans watch for the
gameplay and the intelligence of it,
and not for the unitards or for people
diving into gross stuff.
Doctor Who (BBC) - The most
popular science fiction show to ever
come out of Britain by our
estimation, and has since then gone
global. We've had a great
international response this year to
much of what Steven Moffat and
company put on the screen, in
between "The Name of the Doctor,"
"The Day of the Doctor," and
everything else earlier on during
season 7. Now, you just have to
wonder what sort of response the
new Doctor Peter Capaldi will have.
Glee (Fox) - Probably one of the
most passionate followings for years
running, and a group that, despite
smaller ratings is still very loyal.
Most of the popular subjects for
Gleeks over the past year have been
Kurt and Blaine getting back together,
whether or not the show will shift
fully to New York, and the unfortunate
and sad passing of Cory Monteith.
The Mentalist (CBS) - Following "The
Mentalist" this season especially has
been more entertaining than perhaps
any other, thanks mostly to the Red
John mystery and all of the
speculation surrounding that. We've
just had a great time reading all of
the conspiracy theories and pleas
from the Jane / Lisbon shippers. You
know you've got a devoted following
when there are people willing to wait
around until 10:50 to watch a new
episode ... and these fans are.
NCIS (CBS) - No show has been
more vocal on a controversial subject
this year than "NCIS" fans following
the exit of Cote de Pablo. We
understand the anger that most of
them have, largely because the show
did such a great job over the years of
making the team into a giant family.
The "NCIS" fandom is a global one,
and with around 20 million viewers
just in America alone, it's also one of
the largest on all TV.
Sons of Anarchy (FX) - Easily the
most violent show on this list, "Sons
of Anarchy" fans are as loyal to the
show as loyal can be. There are
strong opinions that we've seen on
the website all year long, but one of
the most impressive things about
these particular fans is that they
don't just stop when the season is
over. They continue to follow the
show year-round, which is a credit in
part to some of what Showrunner of
the Year candidate Kurt Sutter
does to keep people informed.
Supernatural (The CW) - To us, there
are few fanbases anywhere that are
so passionate about a show that was
long forgotten by many publications.
People not only love "Supernatural,"
but they love every aspect of it, from
the characters to the stories to the
little references sprinkled throughout.
The reason we feel that the show is
popular, in addition to Jared
Padalecki and Jensen Ackles'
performances, is that like "Doctor
Who" and some other sci-fi / fantasy
greats, this show tells you that it is
okay to have an imagination.
As always with our Best of 2013
series, be sure to vote for your
favorite ! The official results
will be unveiled come December 20
