Minor heads up. It's getting close to November when I usually do my annual G1 Transformers marathon. This year I'll be hosting some guests the first week of the month and coupled with a fairly busy schedule, it'll be tricky to commit much time to the marathon in just one month let alone the two weeks before turkey day. So I ask you, friends and acquaintances who like to join me during the shenanigans, what you think would be the best approach for this year. Bear in mind the goal every year is to watch all of it but we AT LEAST need to get to Transformers: The Movie. Here are the options as I see them without putting much thought in.

-Do the thing that rampant consumerism has done to the holidays and just kind of meld the last two months of the year into one ongoing blur of a thing. Start the marathon in November and carry on as far into December as necessary.

-Bypass November completely and hold the marathon in December with some new festive title and hope people aren't too busy to catch it. Merry Opti-mas? Happy Megatronukkah? I dunno.

I'm open to other suggestions but I really enjoy doing this and it's a very productive time for me anyway with vintage restorations I barely do the rest of the year so I'd love to hear some opinions. Thanks everybody!
