'Get It Done'
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Is there any benefit to waiting a few weeks into the season? I'm thinking of The O.C., here -- the first season got a lot of posts, the second season sucked didn't seem to generate as much discussion.
I agree that VMars seems to be a worthy heir to Buffy -- I'm catching up during the summer reruns, and yowsa, that is one solid show.
Edit: X-post with Teppy.
Not a VM watcher (...yet), but I do think a dedicated thread would make a lot of sense. So if Jim's proposing, I'm seconding.
edit: of course, waiting is also fine by me.
I can't recall the process, but yeah, I propose that we have a VM thread. Purely selfishly, I can't keep up with Natter these days, and I want to discuss VM in the kind of depth you only get round here.
Seconded (thirded?). I think it's worth discussing in bulbs.
I'll second, if we still need one.
Seconded, just to get the conversation out of hypotheticalville, although I plan to start watching this Fall.
As much as I'd love to get the VM talk out of Boxed Set (selfish-- I don't watch it), didn't we already vote no on a VM thread? How long is the moratorium, six months? (Note: I have no idea how long it's been since we had the Big TV Vote.)
That vote was October last year, I think.
Oh, I actually just started watching "Veronica Mars"! It's shown here on a cables channel that I don't have, and a friend who has it started taping it and convincing me I have to watch so that she has somebody to discuss the show with, because she felt lonely in her love.
Of course, I won't be able to participate in the proposed thread, if it ever ends up existing, because I won't be watching in "real time" with you guys (yup, I'm still too prude to download episodes. Sigh), and I'll avoid any conversation due to spoilers-to-me, so it's not like my opinion on the matter has any meaningful meaning. But I just had to post the meMeME (or is it "meMeME too"?).
[Edit: so that my post has actual content:

didn't we already vote no on a VM thread?
No. There was a poll to see what shows had enough interest to warrant a formal proposal for a thread. Yeah, it was a bit of a sneaky workaround, but it's been six months anyway so it's a moot point.
