Voter Sound-Off

You know why you voted for your #1 episode, now hear what your fellow TYR fans said was the reason for their #1 pick!

reason for picking "peacemakers" as number 1: jimmy and alice! i think of all the women he was paired up with (except lou), alice was by far the best. she was a sweet, lovely lady. and jimmy's interaction with her was wonderful. i love when he finally, but regretfully, leaves her and he gives her one of those swoony face-grabby kisses (term coined by ann) and he is wearing his black leather gloves, touching her face. *mega-swoon* (Beth)

**********

Why End of Innocence is my favourite? Well, I think the interaction between Jimmy and Emma is just great in this episode. They had some really good chemistry between them. Besides, season 1 has always been my favourite...and this is the first Jimmy episode that I actually like. I like Gunfighter too, but NOT for Jimmy. ;o) (That fence mending scene with Ike...YUMMY!!) (Kristin)

**********

End of Innocence (loved Jimmy and Emma, loved Lt. Cassidy) (Liz)

**********

blood of others.. why? the KISS!!!! the KISS!! the KISS!!!! (Raye)

**********

Bulldog-I just love the way Jimmy came around and became friends with Ambrose. The end was so sad and made me love Jimmy even more-it showed his sensitive side. (Gail)

**********

Reason why Fall From Grace is my #1 pick:
Jimmy working in a saloon, looking really hot, and d*** sexy...need I say more? Couch scene with Grace...Grrr...*wiping drool* (Jeanette)

**********

Bad Company - It's the one episode that after 10 years I can still remember from start to finish. It is an amazing episode. Well written, good story. I love it. Plus, there's all that sexy Jimmyness! (Renee)

**********

The Blood of Others: THE KISS...it is so spontaneous, deep, and loving. He just grabs Lou and pours months and months of frustration into one short, quickly interrupted kiss...what more can I say? (Anonymous Kidette)

**********

Bad Company is the best! (Jennifer)

**********

Bad comany is the best.. because not only is Jimmy.... SO SEXY but with cool music and a plot like that and ... did i mention sexy jimmyness? hands down bad company (Ladyhawk)

**********

The Blood of others-- I'm a Lou fanatic and even though I LOVE Kid, I thought that Jimmy and Lou had something pretty electric going on in this episode. (Chelsea)

**********

Bulldog - This is my all time fave Jimmy ep for so many different reasons. But I loved the interaction between him and Bulldog as it evolved and Jimmy began to like him. The end is so heartbreaking as Jimmy loses someone who had truly become a friend to him. (Lori)

**********

Fall From Grace-I liked this one because it showed how much the riders cared about Jimmy and each other they all tried to plead Jimmy's case to get teaspoon to hire him and Cody and Lou went to Jimmy to try to convince him to come back, I just thought it was a great episode, and I thought it was really great that Jimmy went undercover, I also loved the part when himand Cody were fighting off that big guy Bo it was so funny (Sarah)

**********

1. The Road Not Taken. Why? Because Jimmy helps Jesse to understand that there are always consequences to any action and that being a HERO is not merely a matter of disposing of the "bad guy". I think we saw how much Jimmy agonizes over doing what is right (for someone else) versus doing otherwise *seems* right. It was comforting too for him to finally be able to face the family of the man whose death he carried upon his shoulders for so long. (Angela)

**********

1. Others to Consider. I chose Others To Consider as my favorite episode because it showed us how much Jimmy had grown over the past three years and how much Josh Brolin had developed the character we all love so much. It also gave us a glimpse of how great a couple Lou and Jimmy could have become if the show had lasted longer. (Wendy)

**********

I favor all the episodes of Jimmy but the one I really love the most is the episode "The Blood of Others" (Jimmy, Lou, and Kid take Elias for a hanging). Also, when Jimmy kissed Lou... (Linda)

How the votes were tallied:

To make sure that the rankings were as accurate as possible, the following formula was used...

Each episode was given a rank by you, the fans, in which then a point value was given to your ranking. Example: If you voted for "Ten Cent Hero" as your #1 episode, a point value of 1 was given. If you voted for "Peacemakers" as your #2 episode, a point value of 2 was given and so on. All votes were tallied and the five episodes receiving the most votes were then pooled together, their point values added and the episode with the lowest point value among them was ranked as the #1, the #2 ranking to the episode with the second lowest point value and so forth.

*The option of cancelling one high vote and one low vote making all votes next to equal, thereby balancing the tally pool.

Thank you all once again for supporting this poll. If you have any questions, feel free to email me.
