To follow Tre’vell’s labyrinthine explanation of who gets to decide which episode gets chosen for which spot, here’s how they described the process:
Rules by Tre’vell Anderson
We are going to collaboratively create “FANTI’s Holiday TV Watchlist,” a top 5. But we’re going to do it alternatingly, each placing an episode on the list.
The person that goes first makes picks 5,4,2 (more picks). The player that goes second makes picks 3, 1 (fewer picks, but the #1 pick).
The order will be determined by a trivia question, that Laura will ask. We will have 10 seconds to answer Laura. Whoever gets it right the fastest will win, and get to choose if they go first or second.
*Also Kwanzaa + other traditions oft-celebrated this time of year
