rhivolution: Abed from Community with his camcorder (pop culture/film = OTP: Abed Nadir)
I just spent an hour putting together this poll, for reasons I cannot entirely explain. I blame Britain and its incessant CHRISTMAS EVERYWHERE OH MY GOD, as well as the fact that I have been massively anxiety-prone lately and needed to do something that did not involve freaking out.

Therefore, as a disclaimer, the poll is based on what I remember watching between the ages of three and fourteen, in a white Christian US Midwestern household where I was Not Allowed to watch certain things. It is sure as hell not all-inclusive, and it is ridiculously slanted towards things that I'm sure I would lose my shit at if I were to watch them now. I'm almost tempted to do so and then deconstruct one or two, but I really don't have the time. Just thinking about it is tempting the oh fuck so many deadlines thoughts, then full-out trigger.

There is space for sharing your own thoughts. The ticky boxes are just for ticky.

Also, I started putting together a list of Holiday Episodes of shows I watched, both in my formative years and recently, but I'd be here all night, so it's been deleted. There's a text box instead for sharing.

So, drop some clicks if you liked things best, or if you found things notable and would like to talk with me about them.

Poll #8769 entirely nostalgia ridden and biased Christmas special poll (aka oh crap it's a US-centric nostalgia poll run for the hills)

Also, why has no one leaked any songs from the new Stevie Nicks album? God, with Trouble in Shangri-La, we were listening to stuff weeks in advance.
