Puzzle #24: Not Another Themeless Puzzle!

-

 

I don't even know how this one happened. The seeds just randomly appeared to me in a conversation about music that I associate with the style of the aughts. A few hours of filling later... and I made this incredibly wonky grid. It took me a good bit of time to clue this, with a Saturday-level difficulty in mind. I think it's Saturday+ if you don't know any of the pop culture, Saturday- if you do. Enjoy!

EDIT: Hey, this is an almost pangram! Fun stuff!

Wait! Don't forget to take an obscure TV rec before you go!

Puzzle #1: The King Of Monsters!

"Rawr!" Hi there! I'm Harrison, an avid crossword solver and constructor. I created this blog as a home for my oddball crossword ideas. You can expect a variety of sizes with interesting shapes and good fill. My cluing style includes pop-culture references and a lot of puns. This blog should update quite often with mainly midis. 15x15s and meta puzzles will be published, though more infrequently. I really enjoy making these puzzles and I hope you enjoy solving them! Without further ado, let's get into the first ever puzzle on this blog! Gridzilla. What's a Gridzilla? A truly monster puzzle? Or a puzzle about the titular monster? In this case it's the latter. Godzilla has an extensive lore going back more than 70 years, so I jam-packed this puzzle full of it. I hope this puzzle isn't too beastly!

Puzzle #20: Reality Check

                                                                              I think this speaks for itself Hi there! Yet another themeless on the blog! I'm really proud of this one and it might be my best yet. Seed entry, if it wasn't obvious, is 31-Across. I'm not sure if people still use it, but I hear every now and then. I'm extremely happy with the NW and SE corners. I didn't like them being so divorced from the rest of the puzzle, but I've accepted it because they turned out great in the end, IMO. Enjoy! Favorite Clue: 8-Down, but 52-Across and 54-Across are close seconds. Favorite Entry: Oh so many, but 14-Across, 21-Down, and 31-Down stand out.
