The new soap medical drama Mercy is up for a People’s Choice Award, and its cast is out and working overtime to woo the judges ΓÇô that would be us TV watchers ΓÇô for a vote.

“We’re probably a dark horse to win, but you can still cross your fingers at Christmas,” star James Tupper declared to the TV DivaGal at the Christmas in Rockefeller Center live broadcast last night on NBC. His stunning costar Taylor Schilling agreed.

“Yeah, that would be nice,” she added.

James then asked the TV DivaGal, “Are you going to vote for us?”

TV DivaGal responded it’s our policy to stay unbiased during awards shows, so we refrain from casting votes.

“Will you do it just this one time,” James pleaded.

Awww, who can resist a request like that?

See if Mercy comes out on top at the People’s Choice Awards, airing Jan. 6 on CBS. And catch the series Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on NBC.
