The Sci-fi and Fantasy categories are often some of the most voted on, but its usually with clear run away winners in each one. This year, looks like that wont be happening.

The Sci-fi/fantasy program category, which last year was dominated by The Walking Dead after the shows star Norman Reedus told fans to vote, seems to have some real competition this year.

Lost Girl lead round 1 voting with 8941 votes. Continuum was 2nd & for most of the time till the last few hours, was continually leapfrogging LG for 1st. Haven rounded out the top 3 not too far behind either.

Rounding out the top 5, the 2010 & 2011 winner Supernatural & 2011 New Show winner Once Upon A Time.

The rest of the semi-finalists include Doctor Who, 2012 Winner The Walking Dead, Fringe, Game Of Thrones, Warehouse 13, Falling Skies, The Vampire Diaries, Grimm, Teen Wolf & Primeval New World.

All of last years finalists made the semi-finals this year.

The Sci-fi/fantasy actor category might not go to last years winner, OR the 2 time winner Jensen Ackles, neither of which even snagged a top 3 spot.

Robert Carlyle "Once Upon A Time" had a dominating 16,588 1st round votes for a commanding lead. Well back, with 5817 was Misha Collins "Supernatural", rounding out the top 3 was Michael Raymond James "Once Upon A Time"

The top 5 is filled out with 2011 winner & 2010 Best Actor winner Jensen Ackles "Supernatura; & Victor Webster "Continuum".

The rest of the semi-finalists include Jared Padalecki, 2011 Recurring actor winner Mark Sheppard "Supernatural", Stephen Lobo "Continuum", Noah Wyle "Falling Skies", Eric Balfour "Haven", Dylan O'Brien, Tyler Posey "Teen Wolf", PauL Wesley, Ian Somerhalder "The Vampire Diaries", Clark Gregg "Agents of SHIELD", Kris Holden-Ried "Lost Girl", Peter Dinklage, Kit Harington "Game Of Thrones", Colin O'Donoghue, Josh Dallas "Once Upon A Time", Tom Mison "Sleepy Hollow", Norman Reedus, Andrew Lincoln "The Walking Dead"

Only finalist from last year not in this year is John Noble "Fringe" as he is in the recurring actor category.

The actress category again, like it did last year, has "Lost Girl" star Zoie Palmer leading in round 1 with 15,601 votes. Not far behind in 2nd was "Continuum" star Rachel Nichols with 14,295. Rounding out the top 3 was Emilie de Ravin "Once Upon A Time"

The rest of the top 5 had another Lost Girl star, Anna Silk, and Continuum star, Jennifer Spence.

The rest of the semi-finalists include Lexa Doig "Continuum", Emily Rose "Haven", Ksenia Solo "Lost Girl" Lana Parrilla, last years winner Jennifer Morrison, Ginnifer Goodwin "Once Upon A Time". Tatiana Maslany "Orphan Black", Nicole Beharie "Sleepy Hollow", Emilia Clarke "Game Of Thrones", Nina Dobrev "The Vampire Diaries", Joanna Kelly, Allison Scagliotti "Warehouse 13", Lauren Cohan, Dania Gurira "The Walking Dead".

The only finalist to not make this years semi-finals was Anna Torv "Fringe" who is in this years recurring actress category.

The final two categories. Best Episode, Best Guest Star. There will be a second vote that will be happening in the upcoming weeks to give late season episodes/guest stars a chance to make the finals as voting for these categories closed well before mid-season finales aired. These categories will be the last categories voted on this round, after the secondary vote has taken place, those votes will garner 1 to 5 semi-finalists.

Till those categories are officially done, here is CURRENT list of semi-finalists for these categories.

Best Episode. With much, much more competition this year, the 2 time winners of the award, Supernatural will be in for a fight this year to three-peat. But with FOUR semi-finalists, they will have lots of horses in the race.

Leading vote getter in round 1 "Second Time"
(Continuum) with 1578 votes. "Dark Hollow" (Once Upon A Time) was 2nd & "Sacrifice" (Supernatural) was 3rd.

The top 5 was rounded out by "Fallout" (Haven) & "LARP And The Real Girl" (Supernatural)

The rest of the semi-finalists include "As Time Goes By" & "Devil May Care" (Supernatural), "Sacrifice", "Crucible" (Arrow), "The Quarterback" (Glee), "Get Behind The Mule", "The Game", "Searchers", "One Less Mule" (Hell On Wheels), "Time Will Tell" (Castle), "The Replicator" (Criminal Minds), "The Rains Of Castemere" (Game Of Thrones), "Six Minutes", "Try" (The Killing), "PS I Love You" (How I Met Your Mother), "Heroine" (Elementary), "No Country For Two Old Men", "Right Turn Or Left For Dead" (Psych) & "An Enemy Of Fate" (Fringe)

The Best Actress in an Sci-Fi or Fantasy series of 2012 as voted by you the fans was.. JENNIFER MORRISON "ONCE UPON A TIME".

Winning this award is finally a redemption for Ms. Morrison. She has been a finalist for 4 previous awards (sexiest actress 2012, Favorite character, Supporting actress & best drama/action actress 2011) with 2 runner ups & no awards. Her role as the nomadic bounty hunter turned saviour of fairie tale characters has put her back on the map after leaving "House". The 2010 Best Actress winner, the FBI agent turned enemy of the futuristic overlords of earth, Anna Torv from "Fringe" finished 2nd in the final season of the show. In 3rd was another "Once Upon A Time" actress Lana Parrilla as the evil queen/mayor of Storybrooke. 4th thru 6th were all from "Lost Girl" and I had assumed Zoie Palmer would probably win this award... but with an influx of new voters, mainly from The Walking Dead & Castle, changing the results of categories they werent even in, the 3 girls from Lost Girl. Anna Silk & Ksenia Solo round out the finalists.

Jennifer Morrison beat runner up Anna Torv by 212 votes, back in 3rd was Lana Parrilla 62 votes behind the runner up & 408 votes ahead of 4th place Zoie Palmer. In 5th was Anna Silk 138 votes behind 4th & 106 ahead of Ksenia Solo, the 6th place finalist.

Jennifer Morrison takes tha vacated title that was previously held by Erica Durance from Smallville. Before the actress category was split into 3 categories, the 2010 "Best actress" winner, Anna Torv has since finished runner up in the 2 years since. All of the finalists, with the exception of Zoie Palmer, were up for a best actress award last year, Morrison & Parrilla for drama/action, and Solo, Silk & Torv for sci-fi.

Jennifer Morrison "Once Upon A Time" 1338
Anna Torv "Fringe" 1126
Lana Parrilla "Once Upon A Time" 1064
