HAPPY NEW YEAR! This time on Sorry, We Tried, all the stars are here to celebrate a fantastic year for movies and TV. Okay, I lied. None of the stars are here. Unless you count the three of us "stars" — in which case, thank you, you're too kind. IN ANY CASE, this is our annual award show to crown the best, worst, and weirdest. In a year with absolute bangers like Superman and Ice Cube War of the Worlds, which one will take home the crown? 

Also in this episode, Robby makes a mistake that keeps him up at night. Harrison's nominee for best movie of the year stirs up some controversy. Spencer shares a heartbreaking eulogy for the New York Times mini crossword. And the guys fiercely debate over whether they’ve achieved “unc” status.

In this holly and jolly episode of Sorry, We Tried, IT'S CHRISTMAS! HO HO HO! And as a special gift, we FINALLY sat down to record a new episode that's been years in the making. For years, we've done a tournament where we argue which Christmas movie character is the strongest, but this time... it's different. Spencer created a bracket of the craziest, most untouchable opponents he's ever assembled. A who's-who of Christmas powerhouses that can't be beat. Who will come out on top of our FINAL CHRISTMAS TOURNAMENT EVER???? The Grinch? Krampus? Someone else I won't spoil?

Also in this episode, Harrison brings a special guest in for color commentary. Robby names his favorite movie of the year so far. Spencer has a little bit too much fun. And the guys declare themselves survivors of the Battle of Whoville.

In this slick and suave episode of Sorry, We Tried, we return to our current review series—  "Spy Another Day," where we take a look back at some of our favorite spy flicks. This week, it's time for the OBJECTIVE best James Bond movie (I will hear no arguments on this fact, so don't even try to make them), CASINO ROYALE! It's a tale of parkour, poker, and punching dudes really hard. And we've got a special guest along for the ride!

Also in this episode, Harrison gets in big trouble at his wedding reception. Jessie tries to get everyone canceled. Spencer plays his Michael Jordan flu game (showing up to work with a cold). And the guys discover the best deterrent for a break-in — the ball-destroying rope from Casino Royale.

In this competitive episode of Sorry, We Tried, we're playing a game! Inspired by Mr. Sunday Movies on YouTube, we're delving deep into the hellscape of Letterboxd (the movie reviewing app) for some really strange reviews and attempting to do the impossible — guessing the movie using only the review. This time — since it's been a big year for them — we're doing Legacy Sequels! You know, those movies that are kind of reboots of really old IPs but aren't really? The ones where they try to revive some old thing for modern audiences while banking on the nostalgia our parents had for something from the 70s or 80s? Yeah, those! It's a much tougher competition than you might think.

Also on this episode, Harrison agrees to mutually assured destruction. Robby flubs the opportunity of a lifetime. Spencer starts to smell burnt toast. And the guys argue over the effectiveness of Spencer's "hints."

In this suave episode of Sorry, We Tried, it's the second installment of our next review series—  "Spy Another Day," where we take a look back at some of our favorite spy flicks. This week, it's time for Guy Ritchie's underappreciated 2015 film, The Man from U.N.C.L.E.! This is the Henry Cavill one. You probably know it because of him.

Also in this episode, Harrison breaks down his favorite little bit. Robby tries to silence those who disagree with him. Spencer brings back a long-lost segment. And the guys brainstorm ways to attract some foreign investors.

In this page-turning episode of Sorry, We Tried, IT'S FREE TALK FRIDAY! In case you don't know, that's part of the show where we shoot the breeze about whatever we feel like. This week, we make Bob Ross proud. By that I mean that this episode was a happy accident. We didn't mean to make it. Hopefully, it blesses your eardrums nonetheless. 

Also in this episode, Harrison does some serious reading. Robby nearly drinks a melted candle. Spencer ponders the future of Christian film. And the guys ponder how long Yogi Bear would last in prison.

In this button-bashing episode of Sorry, We Tried, IT'S FREE TALK FRIDAY! That means it's time to talk about whatever we darn well feel like. This week, we darn well feel like talking about Harrison's current quest to become a legit gamer. That and some other things, obviously — you all know the drill. 

Also in this episode, Harrison almost bowls a perfect game. Robby won't put down the bucket. Spencer brings a bizarre historical fact. And the guys talk for probably too long about an unforgettable gaming experience.

In this FANTASTIC (sorry) episode of Sorry, We Tried, it's time to review The Fantastic Four: First Steps! With Superman already busting all the blocks, will Marvel's big colorful gamble be able to make a splash? Or will it sink like a stone— or like a... big orange man made of rocks? Yeah, that's good enough. I don't think I need to edit that at all. I'll leave all this in, too. It makes me seem more vulnerable and human. I'm sure you appreciate that.

Also in this episode, Harrison gushes about some flawless writing. Robby reminds us of the bad Fantastic Four movie we've all tried to forget. Spencer instates a no-Smurf rule. And the guys talk for a little bit too long, I fear.
