It’s the final posts and a recap of those titular names and amazing reads.

 

When Harry Met Sally

 

I am officially now ending the blogathon fun here at Realweegiemidget Reviews and it’s also just ended at my co-host’s place at Taking Up Room HERE. This is the unofficial last post, but an official recap from me which wants to thank the 25 bloggers (not including today’s 5 entries (at the time of writing) and 191 readers (so far) for joining these sum-up posts in the last three days.

If all of you readers clicked on three posts then that’s 573 reads and these stats don’t include those stats for my co-host’s pages… I am guessing that’s well over 1000 reads. Wow! Thanks for reading – and commenting on these reviews – you’ve made some bloggers really happy, that their work has reached you wherever you are in the world.

My co-host and I have had a staggering response from bloggers where we had 30 bloggers (including those for today, so far… with two to come). I’d like to thank each and every blogger for not just joining but for adding so many wonderful reads, and for your enthusiasm and love for those movie and TV choices.

But having read these posts, I can guarantee so many, many good reads with posts from Annie (1982) to Maude’s Naughty Little Brother; aka Wouldn’t It Jar You, Wouldn’t It Jar You (1900) and the Hamish MacBeth (1995-97) TV Series to The Fabulous Baker Boys (1989)…

Films and TV have featured an array of titles with familiar and much-loved acting names such as Joan Crawford, Paul Newman, Kathleen Turner and Ginger Rogers. We’ve had reviews on entertainment content from many decades going back as far as 1900 and as recent as 2023.

I have commented on all these reviews, so please writers tell me if your comments aren’t showing please check your spam too. Rebecca will justify she’s been having some problems with things going to spam – but you will be happy to know that they seemed to be ironed out yesterday with her happily telling me of 5 posts in her inbox. YAY.

Finally, I’d like to thank my co-host for joining me and am asking her and you to be extra vigilant next month. I hope to announce my solo blogathon this year then with a topic that hasn’t been done before… and…. (to be continued).
