Wow,it is a tough question. However, I know Sunday Night Football was one of the famous TV series on television, so I lock Sunday Night Football as my answer.

The Big Bang theory’s been around forever. It must be pretty bloody popular for it to have gone on this long, so I’m certainly leaning towards it. Yes, I think I’ll go for the Big Bang Theory please.

Wow. "According to Nielsen Media Research, which four of the following nine TV series garnered the greatest average Nielsen ratings in 2017?"
I know two of those are there because Americans watched football and the annual Super Bowl, and The Big Bang Theory was also there because it is also popular in Canada and still going strong for seven seasons. I think Young Sheldon is also there because it is a spin-off of that. I don't think NCIS is among the top four because of Pauley Perrette's departure, I never heard of This Is Us so I rule them out as well, and so is Bull. The only two I'm familiar with are America's Got Talent and The Good Doctor.
The Good Doctor is based on the Korean drama series of the same name, and with the rise of BTS as the most successful Korean boyband to this date, I might sure that anything K-pop would be there, owing the fact that Filipinos, like me, tend to glue in on Korean dramas, and I don't think America's Got Talent is one of those because albeit popular around the world in the franchise itself, it failed to catch up The Voice because The Voice was around since 2010 and produced more than 10 winners.
Well...
There's no going back on this and even though I leave with nothing, it is truly a great experience. I will lock in The Good Doctor.

You never know, you may win. It just takes all four correct answers, but if the team gets them all, you’ll win $400,000 for yourself. • This Is Us • The Good Doctor• Bull • NCIS • The Big Bang Theory• America’s Got Talent • The Walking Dead • Sunday Night Football• Young Sheldon Anyway, that’s three. ThePaSch, the fourth answer if you would, please. |

...yeesh. I am out.
I was hoping for shows; as in, shows shows, not series, movies or sitcoms. Unfortunately, America's Got Talent is the only one in that list that qualifies. I have not the sliver of an idea about how popular these shows are in the US; and of "Bull" or "This Is Us", I haven't even ever heard.
At this point, I can only reason and guess. I'd wager that shows that have existed for a while tend to lose viewers rather than gaining them, especially once they pass a certain age - since The Walking Dead, America's Got Talent and NCIS have been around forever, and everyone's been complaining about the decreasing quality of the former everywhere, I will rule those out.
Then there's Young Sheldon. I have personally never watched the show, but it's A) very fresh, B) has apparently recently been renewed C) is a spin-off of the already wildly popular Big Bang theory, so it would certainly fit the bill for being above average in popularity.
And since I don't even know what Bull or This Is Us are, there's absolutely nothing I can say about those. It could be either of them, and the answer could be super obvious, but I would be none the wiser.
As such, I'm going to do the sensible thing and walk away with my money.
*host informs me that this is not possible*
...wait, what? AAAAARGH!!!
Sigh. Young Sheldon it is. That's my best shot right now - lock it in.

• This Is Us • The Good Doctor• Bull • NCIS • The Big Bang Theory• America’s Got Talent • The Walking Dead • Sunday Night Football
• Young SheldonThat’s four. But, it all depends on captain futuregshost. Yes, you may have lost control of how far your team goes, but you’re still the captain, so you still have one more decision to make. Is there any one answer there that you’d like to change and replace with one of your own? Otherwise, you can keep them the way they are... |

Okay... I've got to keep Sunday Night Football because it's one of the biggest sports in the country and one of the biggest nights for TV. The Big Bang Theory gets a lot of crap, but it's lasted forever and at this point, I could probably consider it a cultural icon. The other two, I'm not as sure on. I can really get rid of Bull, it's not that big a show. The Walking Dead... it has its cult following in the States. However, I feel not as many people watch it simply for the fact that it's on AMC rather than a network station like CBS or NBC. I've never seen The Good Doctor. I've heard a lot about it, and I've heard a lot of praise about it. I'm going to trust in JCEurovision again because he was right on a pretty risky answer earlier and keep that. America's Got Talent is a huge show, but it feels like it's fallen off a bit after Nick Cannon left. NCIS is a show that's stuck around a long time, but you never really hear anything about it because it's not really a show you religiously watch. It's just on every night and... it's just not likely to be up there with the rest. Young Sheldon kind of rides on Big Bang Theory's coattails, so I think it's up there. Jeez, sorry for the long-winded explanation. It's been a long game, and we've all vested a ton of trust in each other. I didn't think that we'd still have all five of us together in the end. Okay, I think I'm ready. I'm gonna leave them as they are. *crosses fingers* |

Ok, those are the four choices you’re sticking with... *deep breath* Boy oh boy, here we go. And about all five of you still being here, the trust factor has really played a key role in how we got here. You’ve trusted each other up to this very moment, nobody has felt an extra need in the Terminator rounds, you’ve not gotten rid of any weak links... To sum it all up, you’re going home with $2,000,000... or bust. But let’s just see what we think... Do we have Sunday Night Football? • This Is Us • The Good Doctor• Bull • NCIS • The Big Bang Theory• America’s Got Talent • The Walking Dead • Sunday Night Football• Young SheldonThat’s one. *the audience applauds* It was understandably the biggest show of the year, as it usually is. I don’t know if you count the last Super Bowl, or at least the one that took place in 2017, but that’s none of my business. *the audience laughs* Is The Good Doctor there? • This Is Us • The Good Doctor• Bull • NCIS • The Big Bang Theory• America’s Got Talent • The Walking Dead • Sunday Night Football• Young SheldonIt is. *the audience applauds again* You know, I’ve been told I relate quite a bit to this “good doctor” character, but I myself have never seen it, so who am I to disagree. *the audience laughs again* How about Young Sheldon...? • This Is Us • The Good Doctor• Bull • NCIS • The Big Bang Theory• America’s Got Talent • The Walking Dead • Sunday Night Football
• Young SheldonThat’s three! *the audience cheers and the contestants react excitedly* You may get this, you know that?! So you got Young Sheldon, and you’ve got The Big Bang Theory, both of whom star that Sheldon guy, another someone whom I’ve been told I can relate to, but I’ve actually seen The Big Bang Theory, so you better believe I agree to that. I think The Big Bang Theory is a great answer. If there’s anyone who disagrees, come here. I’d like a chat with you. *I gesture my right index finger towards me, getting yet another crack out of the audience* How’s this to cap off my first episode of Greed with a bang?! *everyone gets the pun* For $2,000,000... is it The Big Bang Theory? ...Is it?! • This Is Us • The Good Doctor• Bull • NCIS • The Big Bang Theory• America’s Got Talent • The Walking Dead • Sunday Night Football
• Young SheldonYou got it! *the audience and the contestants celebrate wildly as the confetti falls* $2,000,000$1,000,000
$500,000
$200,000
$100,000
$75,000
$50,000

I agree with what you said, I may win $400,000, but the best part is, everyone of us has to keep each of the winnings. So, I'm happy with that amount.

I, wow. Just, wow. The questions definitely fell our way. There was always something you could rule out, a way to reason yourself to the correct answers; and that, bundled with a healthy amount of luck, got us to where we are today. I am beyond stoked.
I was really worried about the last question when it came on. US fictional TV series are usually not my area of expertise. I was really, really lucky that Young Sheldon was left up there, or I would have had a serious problem. The Good Doctor, for instance, is an answer I would probably never have gone for, as I barely know anything about the show. Similarly, I'm lucky that most of the shows I didn't know weren't a correct answer (and that the one show that was a correct answer had already been picked by the time it was my turn).
Phew. I'm still overwhelmed by all this. I'd like to extend big thanks to my team. When I turned down the first Terminator, I did so because I trusted in my fellow team mates; I am so, so happy to see that the trust has paid off, big time, and I am even more happy that everyone followed my example. United, we are strong.

Honestly, I think @thepasch has perfectly summed up how I'm feeling. We got lucky with some of the questions, but overall we played well and trusted in each other, which we were clearly right to do. Congrats, everyone!

Wow, that's a lot of money. I don't even know what the heck I'm going to do with all of it. Though I led the team, it feels like everyone else did the heavy lifting picking all the right answers and I just did quality control. I'm really happy that we could achieve something that's never been done before, so well done to everyone and here's to being very rich people!
