2026 Goal

Well the 2025 watch challenge didn't go as planned for reasons explained on that list.  As I debated different themes and quotas I found myself wondering, what if my watch challenge for 2026 is to just...watch?

I'm going to try focusing on putting a dent in my PTW this year.

I'm going to wrap up what's left of the 2025 watch goal and WSIWN? 2, then get started on 2026.  I also think I'd benefit from watching only 1-3 shows at a time so I can focus fire on a select few things rather than try to tackle multiple, get analysis paralysis, get overwhelmed, and watch nothing.

Oh and of course the race.  Anything I watch to race a platform won't be included here, as usual, this is all just whatever I choose to watch.  When it comes to racing Netflix and Tubi I don't have a choice lol, my honor is on the line.

These are organized by chronological order of completion, followed by alphabetical order of what I'm currently watching, followed by alphabetical order of what I'm thinking of watching later on.

Edit- I lied, I had to binge some Chinese sapphic short films before returning to all the heteromance.  So 2026 watch has started but it's currently on pause.

Edit- I lied again, I'm doing it all at once lol.

Edit- So it looks like MDL is tracking stats based on Currently Watching rather than Complete. I was confused at first but it makes sense given all the long-running variety shows. Rather than quarterly updates like I did before I'm giving myself the entire year to finish my CW. Whether or not I get carried away remains to be seen lol but so far I'm doing okay I think?

2026 watch start date- 1/8/26
