Couch Madness Final Round: ‘Payback’ (Group 1)

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 final round, with voting running from Monday, March 25 through Friday, March 29.

First 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!)

WHITE COLLAR (8): “When Peter is kidnapped by an old nemesis, Neal must race against time and defy the FBI to save him.”

vs.

LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT (3): “Stabler and Benson investigate the murder and castration of a New York cab driver. They discover that the victim had assumed the identity of another man because he himself was wanted by police.”

(If you are having trouble loading the poll, be sure to vote directly here.)
