TV Madness 2018: NCIS: Los Angeles, Suits square off in round 1 showdown

TV Madness 2018

Welcome to another edition of our third annual TV Madness Tournament! This is a fun annual tradition here at CarterMatt where we have some fun, engaging battles between various shows looking to make it all the way to the final round on March 28.

Above, you can see our full bracket, complete with entries, their seeds, and start/end dates. Once you are within the bracket, the dates listed are when the previous poll ends and the next one begins! We’ve got a great group of shows taking part this year, with some newbies as well as others who have been a part of the tournament every single year. The voting rules are pretty simple — you can vote however often you would like on however many devices that you would like! If you are on mobile and you are having a problem seeing the poll at the bottom of the article for whatever reason, be sure to click to view the non-AMP version of the page at the bottom of the article.

In this article, we’ve got an interesting showdown between two long-running shows in NCIS: Los Angeles and Suits. In the case of the former, you have a program that has developed a fairly loyal following both online and in past polls. Suits is more of a newcomer to TV Madness, but there is a devoted following behind it and thanks in part to real-life headlines, enthusiasm surrounding the series has never been higher.

With that, let’s get to breaking down these entries further. Voting for this round remains open until Wednesday, March 14 at 1:00 p.m. Pacific time. The winner here will face off against either Outlander or Chicago Med.

NCIS: Los Angeles (#4 seed) – This is a show that is at a very interesting spot in its present run, given the fact that Hetty has been gone for much of the season and we’re getting closer now to what could be a big return for that character. With a possible Kensi – Deeks wedding coming up and a variety of action-packed cases, will enthusiasm help to carry NCIS: Los Angeles to a second-round showdown here at the site?

Suits (#5 seed) – Be prepared to hear a lot about Meghan Markle over the coming months thanks largely to her becoming the future wife of Prince Harry. While that is all very much exciting, let us not also forget that Suits itself is a fantastic show that brings so much fun to the television world. It’s intelligent, surprising, and it constantly finds new ways to twist the legal drama in unexpected directions. The final six episodes of this season should accomplish a lot, and not just for Markle’s character of Rachel Zane. (Remember, we also have Harvey and Donna to think about!)
