Today we have the last of the first round polls. It’s been an interesting round so far, especially the first day, with many very close polls. Every vote counts so don't forget to spread the word for your favorites. Just remember, one vote per person per poll please. 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. Because of the close polls and upsets, the prediction contest continues to change leaders. Yesterday Paola took the lead and today it goes to Rn.
There are links below to the official bracket and previous polls. Once round 1 is over, these will contain stats about the contest as well. 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. Generally there are fewer votes in round 1, so it is far easier for an upset. Good luck and happy voting!

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: Reality Bites?
We talk a lot about fiction shows on this site but, ever since the exponential expansion of cable at the millennium, non-fiction has become big business. Which types of nonfiction TV do you like to watch and which do you avoid? (See nonfiction TV genres here.) Do you prefer informational or competitive TV? Do you consider reality TV a part of nonfiction? Which nonfiction shows and networks capture your interest? (Thanks to Angela for the topic idea.)
