YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

Who Will Take Home Fandom of the Year?

It’s up to you, so get to voting.

Calling all fans, stans, and everything in between, it’s time again to show your fandom some love. This year, if you want your favorite TV show/movie/video game to take home that coveted Fandom of the Year win, you need to be ready to tweet, snap, post, like, reblog and share until your thumbs go numb. Trust me: Early onset arthritis is worth the price of sweet, sweet victory.

To switch things up from last year’s Epic Bracket Battle, Fandom of the Year voting will be a multi-social platform event. Voting will take place in a series of five rounds starting with Facebook, and each round happening on a new platform. As you progress through the rounds, the stakes will get higher as fandoms with the least amount of votes will be eliminated in a cut-throat, show-no-mercy fight to the fandom death. Sh*t's going to get intense real quick.

And now that your fingers are itching to proclaim your fandom love from the Internet rooftops, head to Facebook and share the photo of your favorite nominee. Right now we’re up to 32, but that number will drop quickly. Once you’ve cast your vote, be sure to check back in for the platform switch. When voting moves to a new social media site, the current platform will tell you when, where, and how to vote. The most tenacious, active, and -- let’s be honest -- borderline crazy fans who stick it out to the end will be gloriously rewarded. The rest will be forced to hang their heads and bitch about it later on Twitter.

#notblessed.

The winner will then be announced along with the other categories at the 2016 MTV Fandom Awards, airing on Sunday, July 24 at 8/7c on MTV, from Petco Park at San Diego Comic Con. While you’re at it, feel free to vote for the other categories as well, like Best New Fandom and Bandom of the year.

So who are the current nominees? We’ve broken them down into four categories, including video games, television drama, television comedy, and movies. Here’s what we got.
