New TV Show Poll (Closed)

edit: we already filmed the first episode, they were going back and forth for a bit but midnight mass held on to a 1% lead for most of the day and by the time we started to watch it was up by 1%, so consider this poll closed, it really was the closest one we ever had


whatever wins we will post it on tuesday and then the schedule for this week goes:

wed - the wire

thu - hh

fri - vinland saga

sat - the wire

sun - hh

I was unable to finish Midnight Mass.

And the bear didn’t win. Maybe next time ..? Hopefully lol

With season two coming soon, I believe it will! 🤞

The Real Question is where is the LM reaction Discord? :)

T
TeaDrinkerReactions · May 9, 2023

I don't think there'll be a Discord anytime soon, but I'd be happy to set up a group chat with fellow LM followers. I'm DaleCooper#9919 if you wanna add me 👌

Camzeee · May 9, 2023

Of these I've only seen The Sandman. Happy to watch Midnight Mass along with you guys. 7 episodes is appealing length.

K
Korin · May 9, 2023

Hopefully the 2 percent lead stays. Just cuz I wanna see that guy in the comments rage even harder. :)

just saw on tv time that they watched the midnight mass first ep. We did it

sand_fl · May 9, 2023

omg, it's happening! can't believe you're finally reacting to midnight mass. i'd be jumping if it weren't for the fact that i think i just broke one of my toes when i went to do the groceries (which btw i couln't do because it turns out today is a public holiday here and i had no idea). but omg! while you watch this have in mind that many actors were snubbed by the emmys by not even being nominated, especially father paul, one of my favourite performance of an actor ever.

D
Dante · May 9, 2023

Father Paul is so good. Growing up catholic and going to catholic school for the first 12 years of my life (I no longer identify with the Catholic church) he perfectly captures the vibe and mannerisms, especially during his masses, of the various priests I had as a kid. Albeit definitely more creepy at times lol. I can’t explain it but there’s a huge feeling of nostalgia I get every time I watch the show

N
Niall Collins · May 9, 2023

Very fun poll to watch guys lmao

M
Mr. Every · May 9, 2023

Honestly? These are all shows you should watch by yourself. All worth watching, none worth reacting to over the others.

Midnight mass is amazing. But also please consider ANDOR and BARRY

T
TeaDrinkerReactions · May 9, 2023

While we're waiting for updates, I would like to show off the case I have for my Mr. Robot boxset which came in the mail today. 10/10 aesthetic, Elliot would be proud. https://i.imgur.com/vAZ7nio.jpg

K
Kara · May 9, 2023

I hadn't found a good place to post but Mac Quayle announced the final volume Mr Robot soundtrack would be releasing on 5/9 (today I guess) which is amazing, it's been delayed in production for like 3 years

t
tom · May 9, 2023

Also weird place to comment this but since it's recent there's a chance they'll see it. At some point would you consider reuploading some removed AOT reactions if you have them? They would be the Part 3 special [Full], 4x28 [Full], 4x27 [Full], Mikasa Lost Girl OVA [Edited/Discussion] and No Regrets Part 2 [Edited/Discussion] Also of course you're probably not even thinking about this, but if you do see this maybe you could just copy those eps to a notepad and you can get to it much much later when you have some time?

Vivasvan Gautam · May 9, 2023

I'm enjoying this poll so much. Checking every hour for update. 10/10 content.

TeaDrinkerReactions · May 9, 2023

Lmao I know right? I know it's childish but I get a chuckle everytime I see someone haplessly commenting for a 3rd hxh upload instead of a new show 😅

tom · May 9, 2023

I am in favor of a runoff poll. Just for the drama

M
Mo · May 9, 2023

When does the poll close? Because I don't think we're going to get a definitive winner. Will there be a runoff?

B
Bless the Girl Kissers · May 9, 2023

I hope they just do them both. MM first cuz it had the least episodes, then straight into Firefly cuz they need some found family loving 🤷🏼

b
bobby · May 8, 2023

damn i really hate midnight mass but i love watching your reactions. will probably watch anyway 😂

A
Awed · May 8, 2023

Haven't watched Midnight Mass but the comments persuaded me ill do a watch along.

V
Victor Padilla · May 8, 2023

I watched firefly with my best friend recently after hearing it be so hyped up but honestly it was just good, not great imo. I really felt the age of the show and it being sci-fi probably helped to that. i do think it's good and worth watching, I just don't know if it's better than some of the other choices

S
Squidward's Grumpier Cousin · May 8, 2023

Midnight Mass was one of the most emotionally impactful shows I've ever seen. I haven't stopped thinking about it since I saw it.

D
Dante · May 8, 2023

Firefly is a fine show but I truly do not think it holds up at all these days. I watched it a few years ago so I don’t have a lot of the bias that fans who watched the show live or shortly after it was canceled do at a time when sci-fi stories, especially on TV, were all very generic and followed the same formula. It was fresh and revolutionary for the sci-fi genre at the time and inspired many of the great modern sci-fi stories these days with its focus on characters and the more grounded style of cinematography so for that, I would still consider it a must-watch for anybody who is a sci-fi fan. I have no doubt LM will enjoy it I was just personally a bit disappointed with it after hearing so often that it’s some of the greatest sci-fi ever and one of the best found family stories. I also do not find the story as a whole particularly satisfying or conclusive even with Serenity to close it out. The characters and world-building are definitely the highlight but unfortunately the latter loses some of its luster since the show never really got to flesh it out more due to the cancellation. Definitely one of those rose-tinted glasses shows.

s
sand_fl · May 8, 2023

i watched it for the first time like 6/7 years ago because buffy is an all time favourite of mine and despite whedon being a piece of shit of a person i really like the shows he created. i hadn't heard much about the show (it's not that talked about in spain tbh) but i really liked it. i would not call it revolutionary by any means, i think buffy is WAY better and i even liked angel and dollhouse (other whedon shows) more than firefly. i rewatched It last year and while i didn't think it was a good as the first time i watched it i still enjoyed it very much. i do believe the girls will enjoy the show, especially the found family part and simon and river's relationship. and i really want them to react to the show and the movie because i think it will be a good reaction... but i still think midnight mass should go first. not only because it's shorter but because of the nature of the show itself. while i enjoy them watching heartwarming scenes i prefer when they watch things that make the discussion run for over 30min because they have much to talk about it. and i think midnight mass will give us that. lola has talked a bunch of time about religion and her atheism. this show is perfect for the discussion and it will have jumpscares and a lot of tears... what else could we ask?

K
Kaitlin Bailey · May 8, 2023

between Midnight Mass and Firefly---- you really can't make a wrong decision, but I am personally biased towards Firefly

O
Oodjee · May 8, 2023

Btw, is the viewing order still messed up for Firefly on streaming services? I remember them airing episodes 1 and 2 in reverse order. We gotta inform LM to make sure they watch it correctly.

D
Dante · May 8, 2023

Yes I am pretty sure it’s still messed up

s
sand_fl · May 8, 2023

the fact that most of the comments are about midnight mass but it's still down by 1% and it's probably going to lose by a bunch of votes 🙃 it's actually worse than when we lost by a landslide. between this and black sails losing the last 3 polls they've been in... man, i've been having a rough time woth lm's polls. smile through pain i guess. https://twitter.com/iHugRyuk/status/1582258824034934785?t=xX6Rcao-xd8m1eP_5LiEbQ&s=19

cosmotron · May 8, 2023

I’m right there with you. Been wanting them to do Black Sails and Midnight Mass for ages, and every time it seems like one of those is gonna win they lose 😭

A
Alberto Alba · May 8, 2023

I would love The Bear, but I will vote for Midnight Mass.

K
Kara · May 8, 2023

Midnight Mass is 7 episodes, it'll be done by end of June, then there can be a new poll. Firefly is 14 and a 2-hour wrap-up movie (do they know about this?) that'll have to be split up.

N
Ninaly · May 8, 2023

You convinced me

Ulfway · May 8, 2023

what should I vote guys?

Gudea · May 8, 2023

Firefly, you'll thank me later

s
sand_fl · May 8, 2023

this poll is playing with my feelings. when i went to sleep midnight mass was winning by 1% and now it's losing by 1% 💀 i hate it here i vote watch both. you watch one first and then the other without making another poll, that way we all win 🤡

G
Gudea · May 8, 2023

Nah Firefly is a must. It would be a break from the typical LM reactions imo, a very welcomed one. And it's only 14 episodes.

B
Bless the Girl Kissers · May 9, 2023

How is it a break from the typical? What’s so different?

v
veki · May 8, 2023

midnight masss

t
tom · May 8, 2023

I'm impartial so I'm just gonna flip flop between Firefly and Midnight Mass depending on which one has less votes

V
Vivasvan Gautam · May 8, 2023

Alright. One of you watch midnight mass and another watches firefly. There's no way around this.

T
TeaDrinkerReactions · May 8, 2023

Omg hahahaha

J
Jay P · May 8, 2023

Wow firefly and midnight mass are both great, but I think firefly would be a nice reprieve from some of the drama and tragedy you guys have endured with Vinland, the wire, etc

R
ReactorHero · May 8, 2023

Peaky Blinders

V
Vivasvan Gautam · May 8, 2023

Lol. What a close call. I'm just playing and switching around between firefly and midnight mass. My vote makes firefly come equal to midnight mass at 33%.😂

s
sand_fl · May 8, 2023

the comment above me kajsdhk but yeah, i agree, this was more than two years ago and i still consider it one of the funniest things that have happened in this channel. their souls left their bodies and they lost their capacity to speak english lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQITD0DHB08&t=893s (min14.58) this is a show from the same creator of midnight mass in case you're not familiar. midnight mass, same as hill house or bly manor is not just horror because except for a few jumpscares they're not that scary, it's about the message each one of them have... but it's still hilarious to see them react to jumpscares, especially milena. (i corrected the link because it went immediately after the jumpscare, now it should be a few seconds before it happens)

K
Korin · May 8, 2023

If you voted for Sandman and the Bear and want to see Milena scream like a little child vote for Midnight Mass :)

M
Mo · May 8, 2023

Still pulling for Midnight Mass. I think we can do it. It's a good crop of shows though, I'd be happy with any of them.

P
Payam Sharifi · May 8, 2023

Damn I was really hoping for Severance to make it on here. Only one I've seen on the poll is Firefly, and I loved it but I also haven't seen it since I was a kid, so I have no real attachment to it at this point. I guess I'll go with The Bear because it just seems really good and I plan to get to it soon myself.

B
Bryce · May 8, 2023

I think they're waiting for the second season of Severance to come out/be close to coming out before starting it.

P
PamRenea · May 8, 2023

Sandman 😔

S
Scared Cannon · May 8, 2023

The Sandman literally best show of netflix last year wtf

J
Juaney Castanedo · May 7, 2023

Honestly The Sandman is the best show in this pool, it's really a shame it won't win

D
Delamain · May 7, 2023

When you never heard of any of these shows so you vote for the second place to make it interesting lol

E
Ewasabi316 · May 7, 2023

Going with Sandman!!!.... even if it might be a losing battle

H
HenryM · May 7, 2023

Wow it's really close now. Fingers crossed for Midnight Mass!

S
Sebastian · May 7, 2023

switching my vote to midnight mass since it has a realistic chance of winning and the bear doesnt. hopefully they get around to it one day though

K
Korin · May 7, 2023

yeah this is what i did.

s
sand_fl · May 7, 2023

by the way... do LM know that the show (firefly) is followed by a movie? like, they've never done a movie reaction and if they do the show the movie is a MUST. it would be an unfinished story if they don't watch or react to it.

T
TeaDrinkerReactions · May 7, 2023

Technically they reacted to El Camino, which was a movie for Netflix

o
oerwhat · May 7, 2023

An extra hxh slot lol

B
BNichols1235 · May 8, 2023

I wish

orlanmop _ · May 7, 2023

The Bear is one of the best things to come out the past 5 years, if anyone wants something exciting/heavy and can be binged in a day, check it out on Hulu.

T
T0ast · May 7, 2023

the bear or midnight mass

R
Rynsen · May 7, 2023

I was never a fan of Firefly, it always felt to me like most of the hype for that show came from it being cancelled, rather than it actually being something special. The show had a lot of potential for the future, but what they actually made in that first season/movie was pretty weak. It honestly feels like a waste of time reacting to and discussing something that will never get a proper conclusion. I have no idea what Midnight Mass is, but it's been too long since this channel has done horror so I'll go with that. Hopefully you get around to doing The Bear at some point too, it's a very good show.

F
Farbod · May 7, 2023

Serenity was a good enough conclusion. The show is excellent and has some of the most fun and memorable characters in the genre.

T
TeaDrinkerReactions · May 7, 2023

Switched my vote to Midnight cause I'm a good internet friend <3 and also I haven't watched either of The Haunting tv shows and I'm in the mood for something different, even if it's from a genre I'm unaccustomed to. And if Firefly wins, I can finally say I've watched it. Win win baby.

s
sand_fl · May 7, 2023

that 5% drop punched me in the gut ngl 😭 not when i started having hope 💀

K
Korin · May 7, 2023

Guys we HAVE to see milena freaking out watching midnight mass. Hill house screams was 10/10 so I hope Midnight wins. I feel like Firefly is just a Expanse but worse. Its not bad but its just paler imo. And I just dont believe Bear will win. Dont even get me started on the hot mess that was Sandman.

J
Jack SV · May 7, 2023

God I wish the bear wins but I don’t think is going to happen :(

XanderWhat · May 7, 2023

I'd be happy with any of these! Also, loved the first two episodes of Silo, so that might be a good one for next time. And Severance.

Sleep Deprived Sal · May 7, 2023

Great choices! I'm sure you would love SpyxFamily too

K
Kara · May 7, 2023

Switched my vote from Bear to Midnight Mass so it has more of a chance of winning. Encourage others to do the same 💖

s
sand_fl · May 7, 2023

i could kiss you right now ❤️

s
sand_fl · May 7, 2023

also, i love the sandman (comics and audiobook) my patreon name is like that because i was rereading some of the comics back when i created the account. but the adaptation was not that good imo. it has good episodes and it's well acted, but idk, i did not enjoy it that much. i have the bear in my watchlist though. i heard it's great but still haven't got to watch it. conclusion, vote for midnight mass please. for my sanity. i've been waiting for this reaction since the show came out... and it's been a year and a half.

S
Sauli · May 7, 2023

Haven't seen any of these. Firefly and Sandman turned out to be disappointments? Midnight Mass is a horror? No thanks, I can't stand horror esp. jumpscares. The Bear has Odenkirk? That's my choice then!

s
sand_fl · May 7, 2023

istg i love firefly but damn, vote for midnight mass. that show is a masterpiece, only 7 episodes and the best of all, you'll get to see milena's hilarious reactions to jumpscares. no, but in all seriousness, of you've watched their haunting of hill house/bly manor reactions you know it's going to be good. specially the discussion.

I
Ikky · May 7, 2023

Midnight Mass is very underrated

G
Gabriel Lima · May 7, 2023

Midnight Mass is such a good show, its even better than hill house!

c
cosmotron · May 7, 2023

I’ll be happy with most of these, but my vote is for Midnight Mass. Sandman is my second choice though.

R
Ruben Mira Jimenez · May 7, 2023

The only one i haven't seen is "The Bear" (which i'll eventually watch too, i'm sure), and with these shows being pretty short, i would love to see you guys react one after the other... 😂 That said, i had to go with Midnight Mass 💖

T
Teddy S · May 7, 2023

Firefly all the way, love character driven shows. Never finished Sandman because of just that reason and haven't seen the other two so this is a easy choice.

M
Matheus · May 7, 2023

I'll vote for midnight mass just because i remember you two watching hill house and it was so funny

H
HenryM · May 7, 2023

As much as I love Firefly, I'm voting for Midnight Mass because Milena's reactions to horror give me life lol

S
Sebastian · May 7, 2023

the bear will have bob odenkirk in season 2 if that info sways any voters! one of the best series of 2022 imo!

K
Kara · May 7, 2023

I rewatched Firefly and it aged really badly IMO, especially after watching The Expanse. I voted for The Bear but I'd enjoy Midnight Mass too

K
Korin · May 7, 2023

I would like to see the bear reactions but I serioussly dont think it will win agaisnt midnight or even firefly it seems. So I voted for Midnight for Milena

B
Baz Mehdi · May 7, 2023

The Bear was one of my favourite shows from last year, hope you guys get to react to it at some point

W
Washington Redskins GFY · May 7, 2023

Firefly for sure, Sandman is such a letdown

R
Revan · May 7, 2023

I feel like you would love Midnight Mass, a bit monologue heavy but so damn good throughout.
