The Smackdown Returns: Which Years Should We Cover?
Last year's Supporting Actress Smackdown season was way too short with only two episodes so we're starting much earlier this year and aiming for at least 5 or 6 from spring to summer.
Friday February 17th - Best Supporting Actress 2016
Nominees TBA. Since the smackdown is normally a retrospective we will probably approach this 'in-the-moment' event differently but we're still brainstorming.
Friday March 31st - Best Supporting Actress 1963
We've been promising this year forever so we are going to force ourselves through it which should be easier than its been since its only three films! The nominees: Margaret Rutherford in The VIPs, Lilia Skalia in Lilies of the Field and three of Albert Finney's co-stars in Tom Jones: Diane Cilento, Joyce Redman, and '60s Oscar fixture Dame Edith Evans
But what shall we do for April through August (finale)? You get four choices come after the jump...
PLEASE CHOOSE ONE FROM EACH GROUP IN THE COMMENTS...
NOTE: We won't necessarily be doing the ones with the most votes (sometimes issues of scheduling or unavailability of films or preferences of guest panelist come into play) but this will at least help us decide. These are the years that haven't yet been done.

Btw - 1985 has already been done on StinkyLulu
I vote 1937, 1951 (though 1960 is tempting), 1987 and 2005!
1946
1970
1981
2005
What happened to the April and May smackdowns? I love these, don't stop!
