That said, I know I sometimes don't get all of the instances of them, because I can't find a good photo or image, or because, simply, I forget about a certain series episode!<br /><br />I think you're talking about #4 for Tales from the Crypt (Larry Drake in Santa suit!) <br /><br />All my best, <br /><br />JohnJohn Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-87299924645747649322011-12-19T08:02:45.081-05:002011-12-19T08:02:45.081-05:00Oh, I'm coming too late to get the (I guess mo...Oh, I'm coming too late to get the (I guess more obvious) ones I know. No. 8 reminds me of Silent Night, Deadly Night, but that's a film. Is it from Tales from the Crypt?<br /><br />A great collection, though I'm always sorry if you don't have the Real Ghostbusters and "X-Mas Marks the Spot" (then again, you didn't get animated this week.Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10790273832065126540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-87033087360493371842011-12-19T07:52:44.640-05:002011-12-19T07:52:44.640-05:00Push comes to shove, season 2 of Millennium is my ...Push comes to shove, season 2 of Millennium is my favourite season of any show.

Outstanding job!!!<br /><br />I return to Millennium frequently. So many episodes are great, and some of them play as feature film quality, even a decade later, so I'm simpatico with you there.

I tried to pick a collection of sort of iconic Christmas imagery, from Santa to snow, to decorations and trees. Very tough.<br /><br />Adam: Yes, you successfully identified #9, #10 and #13. Very well done, my friend. Excellent job!<br /><br />David: Merry Christmas to you as well, my friend. I always appreciate reading your comments, and seeing your name here, sir! You successfully identified #8, from the X-Files.<br /><br />A great start to this holiday edition, Adam and David!<br /><br />best,<br />JohnJohn Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-9734125927871853282011-12-19T07:21:59.954-05:002011-12-19T07:21:59.954-05:00Another wild guess...
