      Everyone is getting pregnant. We just need Nikita pregnant, Elena pregnant, Blair pregnant, Charlie Sheen pregnant… What else?

      • Katie

        Blair may be pregnant…

      • Dianna

        Actually, Blair could be pregnant. It sounds awful, I know. GG is the next OTH.

      • Karen

        Castiel….?

      • MSC

        Blair pregnant by chuck I’ll take!!! Chair forever!

      • Steph

      • an

        charlie sheen pregnant….lol…hahahahahahaha….i jst had thi eird imagination!! hahahahahaha

      • Alexa

        i doubt she’s pregnant, i think it’s a ploy to make max stay in california with her and to convince his parents that he needs to stay

      • eliza Anastasio

        omg castiel lololol

      • Kafrin

        Oh my god, Castiel pregnant.

      • Eric P

        I wasn’t annoyed at “Naomi Pregnant” as much as i was the way she found out, “stabbed by a stilletto at a wedding” seriously???

      • Solange

        Castiel?! LOL too funny!

      • Christine

        Well Castiel needs his Messiah now he’s God.

      • Hank

        I don’t know. All this God’s thing about Castiel has become a little odd. The writers must not be playing with those issues.

      • Nykolle

        Castiel. lolomg

      • Angelika

        done with voting…. waiting excited for The Vampire Diaries Season 3!!

      • Giovanna

        Quinn could be pregnant again. This way she’ll see how she needs to be with Puck and not with Finn. And then she’ll stop getting in the way of Finchel. Well, actually nothing can stop Finchel now.

    • julia tattershall

      done.

    • stu

      thank god for netfilx!

    • stu

      thank god for Netflix!

    • diane B

      Cass as the new God wow!! maybe he can help Sam with his recovery from the memories from Hell can’t wait for the 7th season to begin here come the DVD’s for the summer…..

  • Honeybelle

    Was I the only person who’s bothered by the fact that Booth is now responsible for TWO unplanned pregnancies?

    • Ella

      Yep. You were the only one….and it usually bugs the crap out of me

      • Sarah

        So excited for season 7 of bones, It’s about time they had a baby and guys it’s TV so of course bc isn’t considered, can’t wait

      • Mindi

        I agree, especially when he is supposed to be a fairly devout catholic altar boy type. Sure, he oopsied Parker, but apparently didn’t learn anything. This bothers me almost as much as when they’re shown driving while talking/holding their cell phones and apparently without seat belts… I guess being safe isn’t a thing in the Bones universe….

      • Bekah

        Yeah, probably. But I’ve been waiting for this since the whole ‘dream Bones preggo’ Coma dream and the whole ‘Nothing happens unless first a dream’ quote thing in the season 4 finale and the beginning of season 5. It’s kinda been foreshadowed quite a bit.

      • Mo

        Huh. I posted something in reply to Mindy, but it’s disappeared. I was making a joke about how they don’t need no stinkin’ safety since they’re all driving (heavily advertised product placement vehicle line)s!!!! Watching Bones sometimes feels like a car ad, with all those hybrids and minivans that they tell us can parallel park for them/warn them when they are getting too close to the vehicle in front/call their moms for them on Mother’s Day… You all know which ones those are (as well as which movie they went to see in them.)

    • Sarah

      It didn’t bother me but let’s just hope Hannah doesn’t come back pregnant…

      • Alice

        Gahhhhhh!

      • kg

        amen to that

    • JackJack

      i wish this were facebook so i could ‘like’ it. at least they are like 5 or 6 years apart??

    • j

      Isn’t parker like 10 now?

      I guess condoms and hormonal BC don’t exist on TV lol.

    • wino

      i was more bothered by his dumb smile

      • Catherine

        The smile was precious, I thought, but could have been improved by a hug. And I REALLY wanted to see HOW they got to that point. My most rewound of the season was Booth’s cheek smooch of Bones followed by a bashful grin at the Bowling alley.

      • tigger851

        after watching him on buffy, i can’t watch this without thinking he will rip someones vein out and suck on the blood!

      • Griggs

        The smile was perfect!!!!!

      • anna

        The smile and his reaction saved the otherwise dumb plot and lame situation.

      • AMy

        the smile was the best part of the episode

      • trish

        What bothered me the most was that she had to explain that it was actually his. That it wasn’t a given.

    • Jared Prophet

      Yes.

    • Vicky

      Mark Sloan on Grey’s is responsible for THREE (including Addie’s abortion), and yet we are supposed to be SO happy he found his long-lost daughter and then had a kid with his BFF-with-benefits Callie.

    • Stacey

      It happens. And it’s not like Parker is 1. He’s 10 I believe. So it’s not like he’s been careless. It was unplanned encounter between him and Brennan; so I am not annoyed. But it is amusing for a marrying kind of guy and Catholic to be have a repeat! And it’s not Brennan will be anxious to marry right away!

    • Joy

      No. I think it just means you’ve been watching from season one. After seeing all the misery Booth felt and went through with not having full access to Parker, the reaction makes NO sense. Yes, accidents happen, but if there’d been a birthcontrol malfunction he’d damn well have known and been concerned. Clueless, “am I the father?” WTH? Guess he didn’t ask about the pill.

      However, this is Booth post 100th reboot: He’s got the dumb jock, mad at the world mentality and thinks a figtree in the middle of a warzone is the perfect place to drop his pants. So, really, with THIS Booth, it’s not surprising at all.

      • Catherine

        Watch the episode ending again – Booth didn’t ASk if he as the father.Bones offered that information. She had to because we, the viewing audience, did not see them actually hook up. So the writers had to make sure we KNEW it was Booth’s.

      • Maddy

        The reaction does make sense. Booth loves kids, especially his. He also loves Bones so finding out they are having a kid is exciting to him. He probably isn’t assuming this time would be like it was before with Parker’s mom and all the custody problems.

      • Bekah

        Well, I see his excitement as coming from the fact that she’s actually having his kid this time. He was so disappointed when he woke up from the coma dream and she wasn’t pregnant. He was so thrilled about it in the dream.

    • Courtney

      isn’t he catholic and they do not believe in using something so an accident is bound to happen

      • John

        Actually, they don’t use condoms, because it’s God’s will if you get pregnant or not (my mums side is Catholic).

      • M

        The pope is against it, but there are a lot of American Catholics who use birth control. (I was raised Catholic, Catholic family)

      • Jessie

        I’m a Catholic that uses birth control. I have Muslim friends who drink and one Hindu friend who tried beef. Just because someone is a certain religion doesn’t mean they stick to all its teachings 100%…if everyone did that, this would be a pretty scary world.

      • Catherine

        Catholicism is more about “reverence for life” regarding procreation. Most Catholics know and feel that lack of birth control is irresponsible if you do not desire to add to your family. Most contemporary, intelligent, and liberal Catholics know their faith well enough to understand that the rules are created for our better good – but that God also expects us to use our brains and make informed choices.

      • Javabooknut

        Actually I believe after
        Vatican 2 Birth Control is allowed. However premarital sex isn’t technically so I don’t think permission is the key problem.

      • Lisapeth

        Yes he is Catholic and since all Catholics follow every single rule they are supposedly given, the whole Hannah living with him was some elaborate dream they forgot to explain was a dream.

        It’s TV, they had sex when they were both grieving and under enormous stress. BC was forgotten about. Honestly, with how well he knows Bones, it wouldn’t be completely unrealistic of him to assume she would have said something if she didn’t have some sort of BC going on and so assumed it was OK. She’s pretty blunt and to the point about most things.

      • AMy

        this is television people..plus how many of us really follow our religion when it comes to sex? the writers had to add this twist because ED is pregnant in real life..and they had to find a way to get B and B together without dissipating people’s interest

      • Mike

        A great many Catholics use some form of birth control.

    • kat

      I’m more bothered by the fact that Bones and Booth hooked up at all. Ugh. Guess next season will be the last.

      • Mimi

        Considering they’re the highest rated scripted show on fox for the 2010-2011 season, that ain’t happening.

      • AMy

        they’re the highest rates scripted show on fox this season..i dont see em going anywhere till probably like 8 seasons

    • M&Ms

      When did Booth and Brennan get together? I missed that episode!

      • Kyle

        I saw the episode and even for us viewers, they didn’t hook up… It was weird.

      • Rachel

        The day Vincent died, Bones stayed at Booth’s apartment, because he thought it’d be safer. All we saw was her going into his room late at night and them holding each other.

    • Sara

      Well, Bones had wanted a kid for a season or two now, and we saw very little of their romantic relationship, so that kid could very well be planned.

    • Alrisha6

      Nothing weir it’d seen that writers like unprotected sex. Look how many pregnancies are now in tv. Even doctors shave crapy bird control measures (look Christina in GA). Apparently when they have no new ideas just get somebody pregnant.

    • Ami

      He just is extremely fertile. His sperm has super powers that make them impervious to latex.

    • Javadude54

      And that’s not counting the unplanned pregnancies David Boreanaz is responsible for.

    • Kathryn

      Booth is a good father though

    • hannah

      they only scripted a pregnancy because Emily’s pregnant in real life, or else there’d be a lot of over the table shots, or less Brennan.

      and even though it was technically unplanned, it was planned. Brennan did ask Booth if she could use his sperm for a baby before he had the tumour and all.

      • Lisapeth

        The writer has stated on EW that it wasn’t scripted because of her real life pregnancy.

    • Sukie

      Well, maybe not so unplanned. Hart Hanson likes to see us twist in the wind like this. Perhaps Bones used some of Booth’s frozen “stuff” from brain tumor season.

    • Gerry

      I have a feeling something might go wrong with the pregnancy….

    • diana

      yes, but what will bother me more is if Brennan refuses to marry him! You know he’s gonna ask .. poor guy.

      • AMy

        well i think he wouldn’t be in a hurry to propose xD

    • Melida J

      first of all, how do we know is an “unplanned” pregnancy? Remember season 4??? Brennan was going to get pregnant and Booth was going to be the father…

  • Liz Lemon

    I would vote for The Killing if I could, but it hasn’t had it’s finale yet. That show is amazing and is not getting enough love.

    • JJ

      AGREE!!!!

    • Joan

      I completely agree. The Killing is fantastic!

    • Ashley

      Agree!

    • Liz

      I so agree with you, “The Killing” is excellent – I agree it needs to get more attention. Perhaps, next year we will be able to vote for it.

  • Captain

    Wow alot of my nominations made it in, cool.

  • E

    We’ve always known there were 2 Tammys so that choice was not really a surprise. We just don’t know what she looks like or why Tammy #2 would be so scared of her that she would run away.

    • AaronisThinking

      Yeah, I was wondering why her existence is a “surprise.” It’s not. As Ron would say, “Yes, my mother is also named Tammy. What’s your point?”

      • anna

        I think it was her existence in Pawnee that was the suprise. Not her existence in general.

  • AM

    I wonder if they could have done without round 2? I just voted for everything I nominated.

    • Johnification

      It’s WAY easier to tabulate this way. I don’t envy the intern who had to comb through every comment post!

      • Woot

        I DO!!!!! I WANTZ THAT JOB!!!!!!!

  • Johnification

    We always knew there was a Tammy #1. Just not that she was the beast that the beast feared…

  • Paradise Blue

    done!

  • PeterK

    Jeremy did not die on Vampire Diaries and Tammy #1 was from Parks and Recreations.

    • S

      Jeremy technically did die… but then Bonnie brought him back to life.

    • Jessica

      Jeremy died twice this season…

      • Kelly

        If you count all of the times Katherine ‘killed’ him in the tomb, Jeremy has died a whole lot this season.

  • anna

    In the Best Non-Romantic Cliff-hanger section the Parks & Rec Tammy No.1 question is labeled as ‘Community’.

    • casey

      They got both shows mixed up on another article on here today. Odd.

  • sam

    why no mention of the Pete cliffhanger on Private Practice? that was one of the most surprising moments for me, moreso than any moment in Grey’s!

    • Melissa E

      that is true!! I think Private Practice had a MUCH better ending than Grey’s. Grey’s was BORING!

    • akarinacj

      You´re right. Pete´s cliffhanger was very disturbing og Private Practice. I couldn´t stop thinking about the poor son, after it ended!!!

      • elr

        That was my most disturbing moment of any finale this season. But, alas it didn’t make the list.

    • Lin Marie

      I agree that the Grey’s finale was boring. I guess they were going for a quiet episode in opposite to the bloodbath last year.

    • GS

      I totally agree! I was shocked when he went down! Grey’s sucked wind…not anywhere near finale material. Private Practice got really good this season except for Addie getting back with Sam. I hate them together. Would much rather see Benjamin Bratt give her some love cause Sam is self centered and not worried about her feelings at all. And they better not kill Pete or hurt Lucas either!!

  • Mark

    I haven’t seen Glee finale yet, but it sucks that Sam is dating big Mercedes…

    • Shahryar

      yeah, I haven’t watched the Glee finale yet but have now learned a lot about what happened in it

    • Mix

      There was a spoiler alert. Though, I can tease that they loose the Nationals, once again!

      • Steven B

        Just a quick side note…this was their first time going to Nationals….last season they only made it to Sectionals and Regionals.

    • Ken Adams

      Rude.

      • casey

        It’s not rude, it’s funny. That one moron read it when they knew it was going to talk about the endings of shows. It even had a spoiler alert.

    • Angela

      I feel like they could be interesting together, at least moreso than Sam was with Quinn, though being less interesting than that is pretty much impossible. I pretty much gave up on Glee when Kurt and Blaine kissed; I know most people thought it was romantic, but I found it saccharine and poorly done. I decided to just finish off the season to give them one final chance to improve the show, but really, I wasn’t going to come back no matter what the finale was like. Ugh.

      • Mix

        I agree… This year, Glee has been really mediocre and boring. The show has lost the comedy, the sticky songs and the “romance”. Well, It was good ’till it lasted…

    • GS

      I’m sick of Glee forcing these relationships that would never happen in real high school. A white football player dating an overweight (albiet very pretty)black girl?? An obese girl who wrestles dating the very good looking school bad boy?? Yeah, they’ll never get me to buy any of it. But at least Finn and Quinn are history. That’s one good thing that came out of the finale.

      • Cari

        Haha, that’s funny because Finn and Quinn are the most realistic high school relationship in the show (the quarterback and the head cheerleader), and you don’t like them.

      • Joy

        It’s a MUSICAL done in a TV format. Musicals ALWAYS have a message within their theme. Glee is a musical about the uncool becoming cool- ala “Hairspray.” If you want ‘realistic’ (on television, which is an entirely different discussion), you are watching the wrong show.

  • Brian

    Could there have been MORE nominations for “Twilight Diaries”? I mean, SERIOUSLY. It’s clearly the most un-original show on tv.

    • Nelly

      You clearly haven’t watch. It’s NOTHING like Twilight and it’s a million times better.
      You are probably a bitter True Blood or Buffy fan.

      • Melissa E

        true!

      • Catsy

        Why would a fan of Buffy and True Blood be bitter? I love both shows, watch Vampire Diaries, and loathe Twilight.

      • Mikey

        Thank you Catsy! I was thinking the same thing! As a matter of fact, TVD holds me over during the TB hiatus….and I can always get my Buffy fix in syndication!! BUT I do HATE, HATE Twilight! (sparkly vampires…really?)

      • Rose

        I agree!

      • Stash

        Agreed, Catsy! But I’ll admit, as a Buffy fan I soooo wanted to hate TVD just because it wasn’t the Scoobies, and because I assumed it’d be Twilight-y. I was wrong, mistaken, pleasantly surprised, etc etc.

        …but i never could get into True Blood…

    • jasmine

      have you actually seen the show? it’s so fast past pace and dramatic! it’s actually a really good show, and that is coming from a person who hates twilight.

      that being said, i voted parks and rec for pretty much everything

      • Amber C

        I love vampire diaries but i have to say for once the books were awful

    • Mikey M

      Give it a chance. I thought the same thing after watching the first episode so gave up on V.D’s. I started gagain on DVD and am glad I did. Nowhere near as dumb as Twilight.

    • carla

      r u crazy!!!!!!!!! the vampire diaries is like the best show ever cos it have it all !!! and is nothing like boring twilight !!! vampire glowing!!! idiot Bella crying for Edward on hot Jacob shoulder

    • ew TVD

      it’s okay Brian. i totally agree. I can’t believe it got nominated for like everything. probably it’s tween fans nominating it again and again and again…. and again. and I actually did watch it until halfway through the second season until I came to the realization that it’s one of the dumbest shows I have ever watched, so people, don’t tell me i should give it a chance, because I did.

      • Molly

        Fine you don’t like it. Who cares?

      • mouse

        seriously, Molly? I think everyone who is obsessed with the show and coming up with desperate defense statements whenever anyone makes a negative comment on it cares. Fine you like the show. Who cares?

      • auroredawn11

        you know what? you don’t like it? fine. but I don’t think the show has so many nomination because fans voted again n again…maybe it’s just a good show that you just don’t like. I used to be a fan of buffy, and I admit I also liked Twilight. then I discovered tvd and I started watching because of Twilight, but then I found out it was such a different thing. nothing in common with twilight, or with buffy, either. why don’t you just talk about what you LIKE, and let the others do the same, eh?

      • Larilyn

        I’m 36 and my sister is 42. We both love the Vampire Diaries, and so does our Mom.

      • Katerina

        in Russia too very fond of The Vampire Diaries
        … and we are interested to see voting results )))

    • Sarah El

      Ugh, The Vampire Diaries is not Twilight. Nothing is Twilight except for the crap that is Twilight.

      • Hillary

        So true! Twilight sucks! I read the books and saw 2 of the movies, and they all sucked!

  • shirik

    why did you put H5-0 only in the last question? it’s a great show that i would vote for in several other questions

    • Tank Girl

      Because EW has no love for H50 and is showing it once again.

      • Strawberry Sparkles

        This list was compiled by reader comments. If more people had nominated the show in other categories, it would have appeared more frequently.

    • ks

      I watched many of these finales and my favorite was H50. The rest except for Castle were pretty predictable. But the demise of my team? NOOOOO

      • JJ

        You predicted that Peter would cease to exist? You are AMAZING!!!

  • AmIdolFan

    Most disturbing image….No Haley at the AI finale…..SOOOOO TRUE!!!

    • Fingerlakes Dave

      Best thing that could have happened, and possibly the only reason Lauren didn’t win.

    • Sg54

      Agree! I couldn’t watch the finale at all. Just so incredibly fake, scripted, and boring. They pimped Lauren the entire time. Scotty was wearing a T-shirt. There was absolutely no risks taken and no outstanding performances that anyone will ever remember. Neither of them ever had a moment, ‘cept for Scotty with Gone. It was such a disaster, and almost pitiful, considering it was an amazing, diverse, versatile season. How did we end up with these 2? I would vote Al for crappy finale to an otherwise solid season, your penultimate was better than your finale, your season pass is now in jeopardy, and most disturbing image.
