We’re a tad early today so you still have a few minutes to vote in round 1B if you have not. The link is below. There are several very close polls at this time so your vote really counts. I will update here and in the brackets when the polls officially close.
To ensure that everybody has a good time, please read the rules below. It is important that everyone be kind and fair to make this the most fun for everyone. There are also links below to the rankings, stats, and official bracket. The daily TV Talk Topic will be found above the polls each time. We have a new TV Talk Topic every day and all are encouraged to participate. It's my favorite part of the contest. The Character Cup goes by very quickly so don't forget to check SpoilerTV every day to vote, look at the prediction standings, and participate in the daily discussion. For those of you with underdog characters, get the word out now because the round 1 is where the biggest change can happen, as the first day showed. Generally there are fewer votes in round 1, so it is far easier for an upset. Good luck and happy voting!

Round 1A
Round 1B
2019 Character Cup Rules:
1. Don't take it too seriously! Have fun. Discuss. Play nice. Don't cheat (only one vote per person per poll please).
2. Focus on characters, not people. Talking about what you like and dislike about a character is encouraged. Going after actors or fans is not.
3. The aliens have not landed. There's no conspiracy here. I will do my very best to keep the contest running smoothly, but I do make mistakes. I apologize in advance for any technical difficulties, spelling errors, and general absentmindedness. Let me know and I'll fix it.
4. Comments are life. As you anxiously await the return of your shows, why not distract yourself with a little TV Talk? Each day is a new topic so even if your favorites are out, you can still discuss. While this contest is just a silly piece of internet fluff, the conversation here dives deep, so jump on in.
5. Nuts and Bolts - All polls are active for about 24 hours. The winners advance to the next round. In the case of a tie, both characters go to the next round. New polls should go up every day and polls may sometimes overlap each other. Any questions? Ask away in the comments.

TV Talk Topic: Spotlight on Costuming
In Supergirl season 4, Nia Nal talks about how fashion is a way of crafting and conveying identity. What are some examples of how your favorite shows have used fashion to define and develop characters? What are some overused fashion tropes that shows deploy? Which characters have the best sense of style? Which shows do the best job in costuming? Which characters or costumes do you think need an overhaul? Have you ever sought out a piece of clothing or purchased something similar because you saw it on TV? (Thanks to Ellys Cartin and Jeannee Auguste for the topic idea.)
