Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) of Supernatural is the winner of the 2009 Alpha Male Madness Tournament, which means that, according to you, the fans, he's the baddest dude in all of television and everybody else in the game is his bitch.

Congratulations to Dean, Jensen and the Supernatural fans, and thanks very much to everyone who voted. (Check out the final 2009 AMM bracket, if you want to see how the various rounds played out.)

We thought this was great fun and we'll do it again (better) next year, if that's OK with ya'll.

With condolences to the dedicated fans of True Blood's Eric Northman and Lost's Sayid Jarrah, it seems that this year's hard-fought Alpha Male Madness tournament has come down to brother against brother.

Yep, Supernatural's superfine, demon-fighting duo, Sam and Dean Winchester, now have to fight each other for the title of baddest dude on TV.

So which one is TV's real alpha male? It's up to you to decide, and you have until Thursday. Grab the bracket to see the other 62 guys who were in the running and then get voting!

The Final Four round of Alpha Male Madness is now closed. Check out THE CHAMPIONSHIP to continue playing.

These last two rounds have been brutal! First we lost McSteamy, McDreamy, Peter Bishop, Jack Shephard and Michael Scofield, and this time around we had to say goodbye to Michael Westen, Coach, Sawyer and House. And that means your final four are a Viking vampire, two Winchester boys and Sayid Jarrah.

This is going to be quite a battle.

We'll be waiting out here in the safe zone with comfort, succor and an extremely well-stocked first-aid kit.

Ready? Grab the bracket to see what it took for your boys to get this far in the first place, and then jump into the last round before the big championship match...

Does your guy have what it takes?

There can be only one...

Today we launch our first-ever Alpha Male Madness tournament. While college basketball fans spend this month on March Madness, we're going to play a game of our own with many of the same fun brackets, fan battles and general good times. But the contestants in this tournament are not basketball teams—they are the leading men of all your favorite TV shows.

Sure, on the home turf of their own shows these guys are tough and no one messes with them—but how do they match up against other shows' male leads?

We're about to find out, because this tournament starts with 64 of TV's hottest and most beloved characters, and over the course of the month we'll narrow down the competition until one champion comes out on top. To win, the champ's going to need a killer character, a popular show and most important of all: fangirls (and boys) who are willing to vote for them in every round and recruit new voters to do the same.

Do you want to see if your favorite leads are contenders? Are you ready to vote for and cheer on your faves? Then download the Alpha Male Madness tournament bracket and cast your vote in the poll below.
