I was thinking of trying to do a multi-part poll on the greatest shows of NBC, since they are celebrating their 90th anniversary. It would require a lot of work on my part, which I'm fine with. But I don't want to make 3-5 polls requiring lots of research if there would be absolutely no interest in them going live.
I would be making some polls covering the different "best shows" of NBC, then there would be a final poll with the top picks from the first polls going head-to-head. I'm not sure if I would separate the possible shows into different polls by date, or genre, or what - remains to be decided.
Please give me an honest opinion about how you feel regarding such a suggestion. I promise I will not argue with you or get defensive, though I may ask questions if I'm not clear on what you say. Please just give me feedback on the idea.
Thank you.

I don't think you should worry about your polls not going live, it's not like all the poll board members have migrated here and that there will be an overdose of poll suggestions. I'm not even sure I will post regularly here. Seriously, there's no comparison with the board, and the more I click here to check how many replies the suggestions get (not just mine), the more depressed I become. This is really a sad day, and let's be realistic one moment, it will be very difficult to have fun doing this, well, at least for me. I'll try... but I don't think the heart is in anymore...
This still active?

I don't think it needs to be multiple lists after all. Or maybe just two.

What a list!
Jen, Champion
Is that a good or bad response?

Jen,
I took this as a positive statement.
You may wish to eventually change the title of this thread to:
Greatest NBC Shows Ever

I like it. This list reads as a history book of American network television.

Dan, I can't change the name of the thread...right?

Jen,
No once someone responds to a post, the title and the post cannot be edited by the author. Someone with admin rights can edit posts.
... and yes, this is a major inconvenience for poll authors.
With your permission, I will update the title of this thread.

Ok. And please add the list link as well. Did you see my question below about Dragnet?

IMDb does not currently catalog radio series as titles. Since, you are using Dragnet (1951 TV Series) as the first choice, it may be confusing to simply use the phrase "and the TV version..."
I suggest this phrase or something similar:

If I can make a suggestion, you should separate TV movies & mini series into their own list/poll. That way you can have more room when people want you to add their favs (if it isn't already listed)?

I actually really feel like this list has been streamlined to the exact titles that should be listed. I liked Life very much but it only ran for 1.5 seasons. I don't think enough people will know it to make it a viable candidate compared to the others on the list.
You know Jen I do not know why I bother? It won't happen again.
