Couch Madness Round 2: ‘Payback’ (Group 2)

In honor of the NCAA tournament season, Give Me My Remote is bringing back our TV-centric bracket, pitting similarly titled episodes against each other: Couch Madness! (Credit for the excellent name goes to fellow reporter Chris Hayner.)

The seeding is simple: rather than quality of the hour, we’re going by air date (with the oldest episode getting the #1 slot and the newest getting #8). With Peak TV, this will not include every single show that has used this title; rather, we picked a selection from what was available.

We’re now up to the second round, which will kick off on Monday, March 18 and end on Friday, March 22. The final face-off will start on Monday, March 25.

Next up? “Payback.” And with this title we’re doing something different: There are enough shows for two separate brackets. So keep reading for the first bracket, episode descriptions (from IMDB), and the poll. (For the other episodes competing, check out all the brackets here!)

THE ROOKIE: FEDS (8): “A ruthless gang leader seeks revenge.”

vs.

THE GOOD WIFE (4): “Alicia and Lucca take on a for-profit university, while Jason tries to recover a missing student loan payment. Meanwhile, Eli creates more havoc for Peter’s campaign, and Diane looks for a solution after Howard accuses Cary of ageism.”

FBI (6): “The son of a retired FBI agent is kidnapped, and the team must investigate if it’s an act of revenge; Isobel must make a hard call when information from the past comes to light.”

vs.

THE BOYS (7): “One year following Stormfront’s public controversy, Butcher and the Boys now work as contractors for Neuman’s Bureau of Superhero Affairs in order to apprehend problematic Supes, with Hughie acting as their liaison.”
