Well, many of us voted lots and lots over the past several days....and I do feel deflated that we couldn't get KK to the semi-finals; the last two hours were particularly painful....going up a little from 49% and then going below that number to end the voting.....but then I remind myself of the fact that we won her the People's Choice Award, and that puts things into perspective for me! A special thank you to bbat, to Bill the beast and to everyone else who voted as much as they could. No matter the outcome, I always enjoy it when we are doing things together for our show!

Good Morning! Hope you've all recovered by now Some last thoughts about the Girl On Top poll: We didn’t lose this in the last two hours, but in the days before, when we failed to build and keep a solid lead (compare the percentages of the other pairings!). Especially on twitter you could see that many Beasties (remember Alpha Male, anyone?) were missing out completely. OUAT normally is no competition for us, as seen at the PCAs and other polls. And I don’t think others voted against us, why would fans of Castle, Glee, Arrow, Law and Order, GOT, Revenge have anything against us or even care about BATB. OK, it was just 1 poll out of many, but as said before, if you want to sacrifice time for voting, then do it on sites like eonline, which is the web’s largest entertainment site, viewed not only by die-hard fans. Besides the recognition for Kristin, getting her in the headlines would have meant some much appreciated publicity for our constantly overlooked show. Oh well, seems I’m still not quite over it, but enough now already... I just want to thank all the participating board members again for their dedication and their tireless voting: Anapi, Bill, Cacosa, Chymere, Clistoff, crazyforbatb, jaysteeth, Francesca, kp, Laura, locaxbatb, Nelly, and everyone else who could afford some time (sometimes you might not believe it, but we all have a life outside BATB with jobs and family as well It was fun spending the last week voting together with you!

Hi everyone, just wanted to say how proud I am of you all!!! You fought hard and tirelessly throughout this round. You gave 100% and more, it never ceases to amaze me just how much we are willing to fight for this show!! We can only do our BEST, and that's all we can do. As the saying goes "you win some, you lose some'' There will always be other polls to vote on, but the love, time and effort shown here by Beasties is priceless!!!!!

This is one of the few defeats for us beasties. Sad for the timing because my gut is telling me that we voted like crazy.
Speakingof me, I didn't twit but prefered to vote non-stop. My mind has not eliminated the thought that other fandoms may have voted against KK. Jealousy can be an ugly green monster sometimes..... just my 2 cents.

Thanks to all of you Beasties that voted long and hard for Kristin. From those of us that weren't able to spend as much time on a laptop voting due to work and family, we really appreciate your efforts. We truly are a force to be reckoned with.

feel a little tinge of guilt that i was on holiday when all this happened. would be really great if KK won. well at least she won at PCA right? JR didn't win at PCA and he won on eonline. and Batb the series both won on both eonline and PCA. That's actually kinda great IMO

honestly I'll never understand why SPN has obviously so many fans. I never liked this show, I just can't stand JA. I know Jared from Gilmore Girls though and think he's okay, but the other guy, nah. and he actually won this poll. I don't get it how those people think about this show. Every year I just hope it gets cancelled..so..still waiting^.^

I know Jared from Gilmore Girls though and think he's okay, but the other guy, nah. and he actually won this poll. I don't get it how those people think about this show. Every year I just hope it gets cancelled..so..still waiting^.^ It's because of how much planning and world building has gone into the show. It's no longer just 'any show' but a big world that's been built up through novels, comics, a production bible, ect. The first 5 seasons were all 1 big story arc and the writers accounted for everything. The little minor details you wouldn't think meant something, mean something. Every little detail was planned out. Thanks to that it built up a cult fanbase. With most of the original team leaving, the shows quality has decreased but it's still in the CW's top 2 shows. The team behind it also did their research. They've published essays on the subject material which really adds to the experience. It's all paying off now. In season 10 (upcoming season) Supernatural is going to enter the Guinness Book of World Records (as either Longest Running US Science Fiction show or Longest Running Worldwide Fantasy Show depending on how they classify the material).
