Round 2 Finished!
Round 2 polls have all ended! Winners and the percentage by which they won are below the cut. Any episode that won by less than 5% is bolded.
A few notes on the winners:
- 5 out of 16 episodes are from the post-Kripke era, a relatively similar distribution to Round 1's winners (31.25% to 35.42% last round)
- Episodes from seasons 1-8 all made it in. Seasons 2, 4, and 5 are now the most represented, with 3 episodes each graduating into Round 3.
- This was a much closer round than the last one! Highlights included Metamorphosis beating out Bad Day at Black Rock and My Bloody Valentine beating out American Nightmare in the last few hours of their polls, The Great Escapist beating out On the Head of a Pin in the last fifteen minutes of its poll, and Born Under a Bad Sign and Nightmare going into a runoff after their original poll ended in a tie. The runoff was also extremely eventful, flipping back and forth between the two in a hotly contested race until Nightmare finally took the lead in the final half hour.
- While Round 1 averaged about 200-250 votes per poll, this round averaged closer to 400 votes per poll. Group 8 (3x03 v 9x10 v 4x04) had the most with 549 votes, Group 4 (5x13 v 7x14 v 2x10) had the least with 261 votes. The 1x14 v 2x14 runoff poll blew the rest out of the water, however, with a whopping 878 votes.
