Awesome TV Family Bracket Championship – Simpsons vs Connors

Stephanie — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 13:00:15 +0000

Thanks to everyone for voting in our seeding poll, Sweet Sixteen, Elite Eight, and Final Four!

The Simpsons and the Connors crushed their competition in the Final Four, and now they’re competing for the top spot as Most Awesome TV Family. It wasn’t an easy path to the Championship Round for these two families. The Simpsons beat out the Bartowskis, the Summers, and the Mars families, and the Connors beat the Gilmores, the Winchesters, and the Bluths! So who will it be – the animated family that has twenty seasons under its belt, or the family who was canceled after only two seasons? Luckily, resume length does not equate awesomeness here in Awesomeopolis. Tell us who YOU think is the most awesome TV family!

Awesome TV Family Bracket – Elite Eight

Stephanie — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 12:00:50 +0000

Thanks to everyone for voting in our seeding poll and our Sweet Sixteen!

Looks like our top six seeds are still alive! Big wins all around for our competitors after the first round. It was a close competition between The Bluths and The Adamas, but in the end, the dysfunctional family we all love beat the Commander and his son. Two huge upsets for the ladies from Gilmore Girls by the Connor family, and for the Bartowski family by the only animated family in our bracket. This week’s match-ups will be very interesting to see! Vote now, and check back often to see if your favorite families are winning!

Awesome TV Family Bracket – Seeding Poll

Stephanie — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 04:25:00 +0000

We just finished up our bracket of Badass Movie Villians, and now we head back to TV! For our third bracket at Awesomeopolis, we want to know “Who is the Most Awesome TV Family?”

Below you’ll find 100 TV families (sorted by TV show title) that were selected based on the suggestions from this post and some of our own favorites. Not all of these TV families, however, are worthy of making it to the bracket! We’re conducting a seeding poll, where the top 16 characters will be ranked by votes for head-to-head match ups throughout the month of July.

After it’s all said and done, we’ll be sending a “Certificate of Awesome” to the actors that play the characters in the family.

Here’s the schedule:
Seeding Poll (Selection of Top 16) – July 9 to 12
Sweet Sixteen – July 13 to 18
Elite Eight – July 20 to 25
Final Four – July 27 to August 1
Awesome Championship – August 3 to 8

Up today is the Seeding Poll, where you can pick as many (or as few) tv families from the list as you wish. Based on your votes, we’ll be able to narrow the field down to 16 competitors. In the case of a tie, I will flip a coin.

After the jump is your Seeding Bracket. Poll is open until Sunday, July 12 at 6:00pm EST! May the most Awesome win!
