Voted yet? If not, you have less than a month to go! (but if you're waiting to see what the Doctor Who Christmas special is like, we understand). Voting closes on 2 January 2007.
Last year Serenity and Doctor Who swept the board. This year, Joss Whedon has been largely off the scene and new TV shows like Life On Mars and Supernatural have been winning over legions of fans, so nothing is a foregone conclusion.
On TV, Battlestar Galactica continues to impress while Lost continues to baffle. On the big screen, there's been a real mixed bag, with all the blockbusters – Pirates of the Caribbean 2, Superman Returns and X-Men 3 coming in for as much criticism as praise. The field is wide open. Could an outsider like Slither or V for Vendetta take the crown?
With no new (adult) Pratchett or Harry Potter novels this year the book award should also be an exciting battle. Will Robert Rankin's fans finally mobilise and give him a win? Or have our five star reviews convinced you to seek out titles like Jon Courtenay Grimwood's End of the World Blues?
