Take the Global Episode Opinion Survey on “Heroes”
I’ve never heard of the Global Episode Opinion Survey (or GEOS) until I got an email from them. I still don’t really know what they do over there, but here’s what they said in an email:
The Global Episode Opinion Survey (GEOS) is a worldwide episode survey of nearly 90 current and classic genre TV shows. The aim of the survey is to determine the average score of each episode for a series as determined by fans.
There are currently over 11,000 registered voters participating in the survey. Results are also broken down by season, as well as different demographics such as age of each GEOS member, sex, and country of origin.
It is known to us that writers and producers of the shows often use GEOS to gauge how storylines have been received by fans.
Heroes is a recent addition to GEOS, and while fan interest is high, participation in the survey has been slow to gain momentum. A message of support on your web site would encourage fan participation and ensure the Survey results have some meaning.
So there you have it.
If you want to participate in GEOS’ “Heroes” survey, head on over to their website here. I actually had to search for their website, since Ian, who emailed me, neglected to put the URL in the email.
