Recent viewings: -As we get into the homestretch, I’m concentrating more on my must watch comfort foods. I’ve started viewing episodes from The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet. They have something like ten Christmas themed episodes, everything from getting ready for the holiday to the far itself...

I’m sorry I’m behind on adding comments on my viewing - we’ve all been battling the flu in my house so watching TV has been a bit easier than writing about it. -I watched the Addams Family Christmas episode after finishing the Netflix Wednesday series. I’ve seen the 90s movies far more than...

I’m a little behind on my comments - -I watched all of the “Frasier” Christmas episodes, which has been a tradition since 2019. I’m currently working on reviewing the new Blu-ray set, and I gotta say, it’s a very nice upgrade from the old standard definition broadcast masters. I like to ease...

I really enjoyed the new Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special on Disney+. It did everything I’d want a new Guardians installment to do and everything I’d want a new Christmas special to do. It really thread that particular needle very well. In short, Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) is sad around...

@Adam Lenhardt check out the Favorite Holiday Episodes thread linked here - it’s been going for about a decade but each December we essentially do what you’re doing here minus the points. I’ve let our members there know about this challenge should they care to participate in this thread too...
