Heartstopper
Netflix have announced that the final chapter of Heartstopper will be a movie, based on the upcoming volume 6 of the books! Intriguing, wasn’t expecting a film but I feel like this definitely allows for a good send off in a way that they maybe wouldn’t have been able to cram into however many episodes of a final season.

Jeez, they'll never learn will they? GIVE US A NORMAL ALL STARS However in the absence of UK not being given a fully-fledged All Stars season of its own, at least it's with queens from different versions too I guess. But when it's marketed as the main show's All Stars Ru's clearly still going to favour the US girls.- Calum's Top 40 ▬ Archive [2017-present]

Let's see how things go with how the threads are set up at the moment then. It's probably the most achievable happy medium for both sides as we have minimised everything as much as possible for those that don't want to see spoilers. Thanks for giving your POV on things, don't want to get to a place where people are being driven away from the AF because they can't talk about what interests them and involves them in the community.- Chart Battle Rewind: Leona Lewis vs Take That

Thanks for the insight, Liam. Just out of curiosity to get an outsider perspective as I know you don't really post your own rankings in the threads... do you think it could be worthwhile removing the ranking threads and just having people post their rankings in the season discussion threads themselves? I like posting rankings myself and always make an effort to comment on the episodes themselves too, but I realise not everybody does that like you say. On your second point would having threads for castings, placements and such for all different seasons be helpful for those of you that do enjoy discussing and dipping in and out of spoiler threads or potentially be worse? I don't want those of you that enjoy coming here to talk about spoilers feel like you shouldn't or can't. We can keep going with trialling spoiler threads for each version of the show at the moment but I'd hope people that feel it's a problem can come to the table with other suggestions too.- Calum's Top 40 ▬ Archive [2017-present]

91 Fleabag 71 points [higher top score] 92 Severance 71 points [lower top score] 93 Avatar: The Last Airbender 69 points [higher top score] 94 Sex Education 69 points [lower top score] 95 The Fosters 68 points Family drama series The Fosters is up next, following the lives of the Adams-Foster family; a lesbian couple Stef and Lena, a biological son Brandon and four adopted children Callie, Mariana, Jesus and Jude. The Fosters didn't shy away from exploring difficult themes during its five season run split between two different networks and always portrayed LGBTQ+ themes sensitively. The show eventually led to spin-off series Good Trouble too which sadly didn't make it into the top 100! The Fifteenth Doctor himself Ncuti Gatwa captured the nation's attention with his role as Eric in Sex Education, another show that explored some excellent themes over its four seasons. Sex, culture, coming out, relationships, consent, and more were always at the forefront of this bold show that seemed to really lose its way with its final instalment. Some iconic moments it did give us nonetheless. I shan't specify which version of Avatar: The Last Airbender this is that's made it into the top 100 - perhaps Chez or Iz can - but either way you have an American animated series that began in 2005 and the epic Netflix adaptation that was released in 2024 with a premise of telekinetic powers to manipulate the elements of the Earth that is very intriguing. Headed by Adam Scott, Apple TV+ series Severance also makes it into the list, joined by Phoebe Waller-Bridge's two series comedy drama Fleabag which currently holds a 100% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes!- Doctor Who • Lux

By the way, FYI, if a show pops up and it's not the correct show or the correct version then I'll have made an assumption on what show was being voted for given the lack of specification in the votes. Fairly sure After Life will be the only example of this to have made the top 100 though and now wishing I'd chosen to go with 2005-06 TV series Afterlife- BuzzJack's Ultimate TV Show: THE RESULTS
96 Beautiful People 68 points 97 Downton Abbey 65 points [higher top score] 98 Pointless 65 points [more votes; lower top score] 99 Coronation Street 65 points [less votes] 100 After Life 64 points The less said about #100 the better given its writer and creator's stance and comments over the last few days so I'm going to skip over After Life making it into the top 100 here. One of the big soaps makes it into the top 100 - Coronation Street just making it in there. With a rich history that Joseph dies on a hill defending constantly it continues on ITV almost nightly keeping up with the residents on the cobbles and tackling some hard-hitting storylines. Daytime TV show Pointless - hosted by Alexander Armstrong - makes it in, one that BuzzJack members will be all too familiar with taking part in our own versions across the forum. Period drama Downton Abbey ran for 5 series from 2010 to 2015 and has also spawned two feature-length films proving quite the hit with viewers on Sunday evenings; averaging over 10 million viewers for the majority of its run. And closing this section off we have BBC Two comedy drama series Beautiful People that ran for two series between 2008-9 starring a much younger Layton Williams - who many will recognise now from Bad Education, Strictly Come Dancing and the West End - about dreaming of escaping to the city and living amongst the... beautiful people. - The Drag Race Song Contest: Rate-A-Queen!
