39. Leigion - I knew this was going to be bad, but it wasn't even amusing
40. Middle of Nowhere - Meh
41. The Wild & Wonderful Whites - interesting & a little depressing documentary about an infamous W. Virginia family

The Curious Squid wrote:...anything over 45 mins counts
...
TV shows don't count unless they are feature length episodes.
What about mini series? Like The Barchester Chronicles - 7 episodes, each 55 minutes. Does that qualify?
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

"...anyone who says it’s “just the Internet” can :pawiz: . And then when they come back, they can :pawiz: again." - Tigger
