In December, we all overdose on the holiday spirit. Whether we want to or not, it gets crammed down our throats. While some people have a high tolerance for it, and even a passion for it. Those people make us sick.
Yes, we said “those people,” but not in that way.
Rick Snee held them at bay with his coverage of Time’s Person of the Year with Congratulations!
Aren’t you glad we didn’t hand out any awards to another origin-of-the-series thing this time?
SG will now be taking another break. We will be back Jan. 2. Happy New Year, everyone!

November usually sucks. It’s getting cold, Thanksgiving isn’t until the end of the month and there’s nothing left to do but wait.
So at SG, it was our job in November to make sure you didn’t die of boredom. Did it work? We didn’t think so. But our best attempt was Chugs Taylors’ The Spy Who Loved Both Genders. The headline was clever and short. SHORT.
Honorable mention: Bryan McBournie’s coverage of the World War II on Christmas.

In October, everything had settled back down again. The world had gotten finished with its vacations, finished with school adjustments and turned its focus to Halloween.

As months go, September was fairly nuts. It started off with the death of Steve Irwin. Which, in turn, inspired an ongoing series. It ended up being the opening shot in a new series from Bryan McBournie.
The War on Animals.
It got its start with Stingrays: Us vs. them.
Honorable mention: Team coverage of witchdoctors and Chugs Taylors’ male organ related news.

We came back from our week-long sabbatical a little more relaxed, a little more recharged and very much hungover.
The first regular weekly feature made its debut, and unlike ongoing series before it, this one was 100 percent original and it added new depth to the SG world.
MasterChugs Theater: ‘Kill Bill Volume 1.’
Honorable mention: Bryan Schools’ review of Snakes on a Plane.

It was hot, it was sticky. It was July. It was a time of inspiration, in this case, in the form of Rick Snee’s ongoing series (and possibly revived in 2007) From the SeriouslyGuys Vault:
It all started with From the SeriouslyGuys Vault: July 17.
Honorable mention: SG’s breaking the story in the blogosphere of Mel Gibson’s arrest and subsequent rant, and the Juggernaut series.
And then we took our first-ever sabbatical.

In June, SG started covering stories and then following them. Why? Most likely because we were bored at work. In any case, the first ongoing series were introduced in June.
One of which was Bryan McBournie’s coverage of Team U.S.A.’s glorious first-round elimination and the aftermath.
Other mentionable series were: Superman’s symbolism, Snakes on a [Insert Object Here] and Scurry ‘06.

Entering our third month on the job at SG came a lot more coverage of hard news. In covering it, we seemed to stumble across some themes in stories.
Two such stories were Chugs Taylors’ The proof is in the primordial pudding and Rick Snee’s Science: “We hates hobbitses!”
