A Very Special Summer

Happy Memorial Day Very Special Readers!

I hope you are having a very relaxing Monday! As you well know, Memorial Day is the start of the Summer Season, and on that note I have 2 very special announcements!

Announcement #1
I am reviving “The VSB: European Vacation” bracket challenge! Starting on this Wednesday, June 1, new match ups results will post every Wednesday morning. So dig up your bracket from 6 months ago (hah) or use this one below:

Announcement #2
“The Very Special Movies of Summer”
This is mostly just an excuse for me to watch I Know What You Did Last Summer for the very first time. I got really freaked out by Scream, so this should be interesting. I’m also going to watch The Sandlot and Adventures in Babysitting to make myself feel better. Look for these posts in July and August.

Okay, bye have fun at the beach!

The Very Special European Vacation

The time has come for another very special bracket challenge!

This time our favorite sitcoms will be facing off to see who took the very best trip to Europe. The contenders are:
Growing Pains: Let’s Go Europe
The Facts of Life Goes to Paris
Sabrina Goes to Rome
Family Matters: Paris Vacation
Taxi: Vienna Waits
Blossom: Blossom in Paris

And the grading criteria, as always:
Overall Plot–2 points
Music–1 point
Vacation Attire–1 point
Integration of European Setting–1 point

I decide to be fancy and make a bracket online (woohoo)! I told it not to seed the contenders, but for some reason there are still numbers next to the “teams.” So just ignore that.

Also, it looks really little in this post, but if you click on the bracket image below, then it will open in a new screen and look normal-sized. Then you can print it and fill out your predictions! The competition will start Monday, so make sure you have your bracket filled out by then! Or don’t fill it out, but you’ll still read all of the posts, right? 🙂
