Pop Vultures turned three months old this month, but that’s not going to stop us from doing a year-in-review of links. Below, the most popular posts from PV’s inception to sometime last Friday.
September
- Marcia kicked things off with an explanation of just why she loves television and why she refuses to feel guilty about it.
October
- She also wrote about the important life lessons Aaron Spelling taught her and hoped Gossip Girl was taking notes. Still no catfights in the middle of a pond, but it’s showing promise.
- Guest poster Erin showed off her The Simpsons expertise with a Halloween post on the 5 Best Moments from Treehouse of Horror.
November
- Marcia compiled a helpful list of 21 ways to survive the writers’ strike, though the last item on the list is starting to look a bit silly.
- Plattie contributed several wonderful pieces on highbrow BBC programming, but it was Strictly Come Dancing that won the popularity contest — just like it did in the ratings.
- Jess was kind enough to share her Spelling love with us all through weekly recaps of Beverly Hills 90210, proving that we are never too old to go back to high school (though we are much, much better dressed).
December
- Marcia created her Christmas wishlist. So far, she’s 0 for 12 — and she didn’t get a Wii, either. She might need to have a word with the fat man.
- We wrapped up the year by thinking much too hard about television opening titles, with posts on the 5 best theme songs and 5 best opening credits. As usual, no one agreed with the selections.
Thanks for reading and helping to make these first three months so great. Also, we plan to celebrate the sixth-month anniversary with fireworks, a chili cook-off and pony rides, so stick around for 2008. American Idol isn’t going to make fun of itself, you know.
