Previously on Scarlet Ranks...

Vampires. Time travel. Death. Space. And money in the banana stand.

We're back with a second run of one hundred episodes (just enough to get this topic into syndication) as Scarlet Ranks rockets into its sophomore outing. As you all know, I'm an avid viewer of all sorts of television, from Sorkin to Kelley to David. It's often a social event for me; sharing a great show with a friend is often quite rewarding, and no show should be experienced in a vacuum. So television has become a large part of my life, both in terms of my personal free time and my social scene.

With one hundred new episodes, it became kind of clear this time that people were more interested in pushing more niche shows. I look forward to exploring ALL of these!

But but but I fear this, honestly, since I imagine that I will see a major drop in traffic on this list. The commentary and interaction is what primarily drove the previous list, and when it dropped, it became harder to push through. Hopefully, that won't be the case. But, keep in mind that Scarlet topics rely on that constant discussion to keep me motivated. Please don't nominate obscure stuff and disappear!

I definitely am less familiar with this list than with last, and I'm neither positive nor negative on that front. Of course, if the goal is to get me to watch new shows, that's PROBABLY not going to happen. Maybe one or two shows will earn that honor, given the sheer deluge of television currently running that I watch. We live in a golden age of television these days, and a lot of these episodes that have been nominated will likely prove that to be the case. The greatest travesty is that some of the shows that might be nominated are forced onto my long, growing list of television to watch later, desperately awaiting an opportunity at viewership. Of course, a great example of a show that won a watchthrough from me last time around is 12 Monkeys. Can't wait to eventually sit down and binge it after I get closer to Thanksgiving.

You never know what I'll say or how I'll feel... I'm unpredictable! What you do know is that I grade on three ten point scales:
Writing
Characterization
Scarlet Factor
We've explained those enough in the past, so everyone likely knows the drill.

Here's a list of what's been ranked in the past and what's coming this time around:

We'll start soon... maybe even tomorrow!
