We made it past the flaming hellscape that is 2016, and onto what is looking to be an even greater hellscape that is 2017. Despite all of the negativity in the world, the Fireside Friends crew found time to sit down and reflect positively on the media that they enjoyed in 2016. Note that most of our choices are ones that we have not talked about on the show before, as we thought it would be redundant to choose stuff that we have already talked about at length in previous episodes. Also note that these are all things that we have enjoyed in 2016, and not necessarily what has been released in 2016.
