And after a record-breaking 2.4 million votes were cast, the results can finally be revealed!
The biggest winner was FOX’s now-canceled science-fiction drama “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,” which took home a whopping 16 Tubey Awards, including Best Drama, Favorite Actress (Summer Glau), Best Season Finale, and, not surprisingly, Most Underrated Show and Most Painful Series Cancellation.
The CBS sitcom “How I Met Your Mother” was also a fan favorite, winning six Tubeys, including Best Comedy and Best Cast, while Neil Patrick Harris won Favorite Actor and his Barney Stinson won both Favorite TV Character and Best Sidekick.
