The Unwatched Media Pile Thread: June 2020

Do you have a pile of BDs that remain unwatched? A shelf of DVDs you've yet to see? Or would you admit to owning a box of dust-covered VHS tapes that you never got around to checking out? If the answer to any of these questions is yes (and of course that's the case), then this thread is the place for you. It's a ~~support group~~ spot where you can track your progress in trying to eliminate those unwatched films in your collection.

Here's the instructions, courtesy of the former Mister Peepers, (now known as The Man with the Golden Doujinshi), who chaired these unwatched threads for several years:

And should you want to go back and check your progress from a previous month...

Re: The Unwatched Media Pile Thread: June 2020

My 2020 Goals:

To watch more than I buy in all 12 months. My record is 11 of 12 months, So close last year! November's Dollar Tree finds were too much to overcome.
To completely watch every unwatched BD I have...the end is in sight. (Went from 276 to start last year to 63 going into 2020! I was at 157 to begin 2015, 97 to begin 2016, 125 to start 2017, 236 to start 2018)

I'm considering my goal to watch every unwatched BD a success! I'm down to a handful, but they are TV seasons and in each case I need to catch a preceding season using another format.

Movies/Shows To Watch (as of June 1, 2020): 1,396 (Removed 2 DVDs because respective BDs were watched)

Movies/Shows Watched in June: 22
Brennan
Castle: Season 4
