UPDATE 1/26: Final 4 round results are in. Voting for the Championship is underway.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just as our best minor league baseball logo touched a nerve in March with over 700,000 votes, we realized we had something special when I called on my readers earlier this week to tell me what was the greatest “As Seen On TV” product.
Within a couple of hours, we got more than 4,700 votes, with the Foreman Grill beating out Girls Gone Wild and the Clapper.
To be fair, it wasn’t that comprehensive. We had write-in votes for ones we missed.
The Veg-O-Matic. The Buttoneer. How could we forget the Pocket Fisherman, Hercules Hooks or the Thigh Master? What about the Flowbee, the Chia Pet and Jack LaLanne’s Power Juicer?
So we’re doing it for real now. Settling it once and for all.
CNBC.com presents the search for the best “As Seen On TV” product of all time. Here is the 64-product bracket. If you’d like to print it out, we’ve made a PDF for you. CNBC.com senior producer Brian Beers has carefully done his best to rank each of the products fairly, though it’s obviously a subjective thing.

Here’s how it’s going to work.
The voting for the entire first round will begin today and will run through the weekend. We will close all the polls and declare winners on Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. ET.

A winner will be declared the following day at 9:30 a.m. ET.
