Tell us: What are the greatest TV shows, songs and movies of the 1960s?

You pick the best shows, songs and movies of the Sweet Sixties!

As the calendar turns to 2020, we are not only saying goodbye to the 2010s but also, in some ways, to the 1960s. Throughout the past ten years, pop culture has continually celebrated the 50th anniversary of historic moments from that revolutionary decade, from the Beatles' debut on Ed Sullivan to Neil Armstrong's first steps on the moon.

Before we begin celebrating all the big 50th anniversaries of the 1970s, we want to take one more chance to celebrate the Sixties. And that's why we need you, the MeTV fans, who know the Sixties better than anyone!

We want you to pick to Best TV Show, Best Song and Best Movie of the 1960s. First, we need you to nominate some candidates!

Tell us your favorite TV show, Song and Movie of the 1960s in the comments below — or on our Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages.

Like this, for example:

1. TV Show1. Star Trek
2. Song2. "Be My Baby"
3. Movie3. The Sound of Music


We will then compile the 16 most popular picks in each category for an ultimate Sweet Sixties showdown!

Beginning next week, Wednesday, December 11, you will vote as we whittle down the top 16 to a single champion! Follow along in our newsletter for reminders, as you vote on:

Best Movie of the 1960s: December 11–14

Best Song of the 1960s: December 11-14

Best TV Show of the 1960s: December 18–21

Will it be the Beatles and Andy… the Rolling Stones and Flintstones… or something else entirely? You decide!

1. Favorite TV Show of the 1960s
