Eric A writes: lots of shows have done Christmas episodes. Friends did some great Thanksgiving episodes, and Roseanne was known for its Halloween episodes. Pitch an episode for a lesser-known or covered holiday. What show should do the episode, and how does it teach (or subvert) the message of the day?

Jim challenged us to turn a TV show into a theme park. The result is a real...roller coaster.

As The White Lotus transports us all to a luxury resort, we're thinking about vacations! We each share the TV location we'd most like to visit on holiday, and picking one or several TV characters to bring along for the trip.

Irritation at a Hallmark Channel event called Loveuary led directly to this challenge, in which each of us creates one full year's worth of programming events for the venerated Hallmark Channel. What are they called? What do they entail? How many are about chocolatiers dating lumberjacks? Find out!
