The jurors were asked to consider the following criteria while making their selections:
The special is the seventh installment in AFI's centennial celebration of American cinema, following the six critically-acclaimed network specials — AFI's 100 Years...100 Movies, AFI's 100 Years...100 Stars, AFI's 100 Years...100 Laughs, AFI's 100 Years...100 Thrills, AFI'S 100 Years...100 Passions and AFI's 100 Years...100 Heroes & Villains — which, each year, spark a national discussion of America's film history among movie lovers across the nation. Each year the AFI program has garnered the highest rating for its time slot.
