The First Ever "November Comedy Challenge" |-List Thread-|



Sponsored by



| Challenge starts November 1st 12AM and ends December 1st at dawn |

This thread is only for lists. All discussion should go here:
**DISCUSSION THREAD**


RULES

Much like the genre I want this challenge to be fun and relaxed so use your best judgment on whether something qualifies. If you’re unsure about a titles genre classification IMDB and Allrovi are excellent references.

There is a separate list thread where you can post what you’ve watched. Be creative and have fun with it. My only request is you must number your list. It will greatly help me tally things up once the challenge is over. Feel free to add other info such as first time viewings, format, and personal goals. It’s not required, these are just things people generally include and I plan on tallying up once the challenge is over.



WHAT QUALIFIES
Movies = 1 entry

Tv shows count according to the length they aired on television (including commercials)
  • 30 minute shows = 1/4 entry
  • 1 hour show = 1/2 entry
  • 2 hour show = 1 entry
Stand up specials = 1 entry | If they are normal running tv shows featuring stand up then they count according to the tv show guidelines. EX. Premium Blend, while standup, would count as Ό entry since it’s a half hour reoccurring tv show.

Any combination of shorts totaling 90 minutes = 1 entry

PRIZES
TBA


HOW TO WIN
Entries will be compiled together and winners will be chosen at random. You can gain entries by:
  • Actively Participate
  • Achieve 100 viewings for the month
  • Finish the checklist
  • Finish the theme night

*First-time guffaws

Nov. 1
1. Young Frankenstein

Nov. 3
2. Whitney ep 1.03 "Silent Treatment"*

Nov. 5
2.25 Chuck ep 5.02 "Chuck vs. the Bearded Bandit"*
2.75 Tower Heist*

3.75 Glee: The First Time*

Nov. 9
4.25 Desperate Housewives: Always in Control*

4.75 Music & Lyrics: Holds up well for me

Nov. 12
5.75 Chuck vs. the Frosted Tips*

Nov. 13
6.25 Desperate Housewives: Suspicion Song*

Nov. 16
6.75 Airplane!*: No one can believe I've ever seen it. Not my favorite, but it was funny in spots. Randomest bit of nudity I've ever seen.
7.75 Castle: Heartbreak Hotel*
8.25 Sullivan's Travels*: Have meant to catch up with this and The Lady Eve for years. Surprisingly dark edge, and Veronica Lake is sizzling.
9.25 Glee: Mash-Off*

Nov. 17
9.75 Julie & Julia*: Liked the modern tale better than the historical one probably because I'm a fan of Amy Adams

Nov. 18
10.75 Hall Pass*: I don't usually go for raunchy comedies but gave this a shot and found it better than I expected. I think I related to its sweet angle because I'm at about the same stage of life.
11.75 Get Smart (2008): Seen this multiple times because my kids love it. Still get laughs out of it, and Ann Hathaway is smoking hot.
12.75 Wall-E

Nov. 19

Nov. 20
14.75 Arthur Christmas*--counts for British night (even though I went to a morning screening)!

In for a dozen.

1 - Ring of Terror (MST3K)

2.5 - Parks and Recreation S4E1-6

4 - The Office S8E1-6

4.25 - Andy Barker P.I. E1

5.25 - Atoll K

6 - Lucky Dog, The Tree in a Test Tube, The Sawmill, Kid Speed, Enough To Do, West of Hot Dog, Oranges and Lemons - L&H shorts

11.5 - Arrested Development S1

12.25 - Disney shows - (something), So Random, Charlie show

13.75 - Community S3E1-6

14.5 - several more Good Luck Charlie episodes

14.75 - Charlie Brown Thanksgiving

Probably a couple more Disney shows in there at some point during the month, but it was too frantic of a month to really keep track. Hoping for a more organized Challenge list next year.
