Giles

thanks Monkee for the challenge and the results - even though I raked up a measily 20 titles - oh well, there's always the end of this year to look forward to.

Cardsfan111

Great job, Monkees! Look forward to exceeding my modest total from this challenge in 2010.

hindolio

wtg monkees. twas my first holiday challenge, only my fourth challenge altogether, and hopefully the beginning to many more

The Monkees

I'm glad you enjoyed it, I hope you try out the Academy Award Movie Challenge beginning next month (the last one I run )

Trevor

Great job Davy/Micky/Michael/Peter! Thanks once again for all your work in this annual endeavor.

I ended up not really using my DVD collection, but once again getting sucked into a battle of constantly recording stuff off TV and watching it as I archive it to DVD-R. I now have around 800 Christmas or Thanksgiving items in a large binder. Why? I'm not quite sure...

RobCA

I ended up using my DVD (and BD!) collection, and ignoring pretty much everything on TV, like I do every year. I would have been able to watch more, but I started a new job last month, working a lot more hours than before.

Congrats to everyone, and thanks to The Monkees for organizing this again!

Rob

Doc Moonlight

I had a lot of fun this year! Thanks to The Monkees for moderating and everyone who participated and congrats to Trevor.

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

I think I did pretty good. It'll be tough for me to beat that number next year but I did beat my previous high score.

mike07

I didn't watch as many as many of you, but I still beat my personal goal of 50. Not bad for my first movie challenge ever. Congrats Trevor!

Bluelitespecial

I watched too much tv this year, and didn't get through all my dvds. If I did I would have made it past 150. Thanks for another fun year.

LBCrazyFool

Thanks Monkees! Looking forward to the Academy Award Challenge and next years Holiday one.

FantasticVSDoom

Thanks Monkees!!! Awesome job yet again... Damn, guess I need to watch a few more and maybe go past Xmas day next year so I can get up in the top 10.

Indy24LA

Thanks for the challenge and congrats to all that played. I had fun and you can count me in for next year's holiday challenge.

Calistoga

Thanks for hosting this Monkees. It was fun!

Chad

Well, I didn't hit my unofficial goal of 100 due to a few too many family gatherings over the holidays, but I did manage to surpass previous totals and reach my highest numbers yet.

Thanks for doing this again TM!

The Monkees

You can officially call yourself the Two Time Holiday Movie Challenge Winner

Trevor

Fixed.

And sadly, it and juggling are the two most impressive things on my resume.

WallyOPD

Thanks for running this Monkees! I broke my all-time record and but still fell short of the 100 barrier. I think I'll be able to pass that one next year.

jmsmath

Thanks for hosting Monkees. I really enjoyed it. Watched a lot of TV shows I hadn't seen it years and watched a couple of shows for the first time ever.

I had planned to watch more movies and less TV, but it was all I could do to keep from filling up my DVR. I guess it wouldn't be normal if things went the way you planned!!!

Looking forward to the Academy Awards challenge now.
