OK. So... my Nilly-fu is not high today, was there ever a result to the voting? I'm guessing it was no, since we don't have a general TV thread.

Is there interest in bringing it up again? Am I dancing on the dead topic here?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That was just the last time it came up, not the first. If you want to bring it up, it will be treated with as much interest as it can garner--but the arguments didn't change much any of the iterations of the discussion, as a warning.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

If you're gonna dance on a dead topic, we insist it be the cha cha in stiletto heels.

I think there's a moratorium on re-proposing after a vote. I can't remember for how long.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Results.

Since it has been more than 3 months since we last brought it up, it is a valid topic for proposal, however.

I don't feel a burning need to bring it up. I personally would like one, but that's more because I'd be interesting in seeing what everyone is watching, rather than due to the spillover into other threads.

If anyone has a comment, feel free to chime in.

As one of the architects of the spillover of HBO into movies, I am firmly in favor of such an entity should our bloviation be offensive and/or annoying to moviegoers.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'd love to have a discussion about something since it's been so long, but like ita says, it's a fairly beaten horse.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I thought the moratorium was 6 months. Not that it makes a difference in this case.

My feeling has been that a general TV thread would be nearly as difficult to navigate through as Natter. If there's a particular show that seems to be generating a lot of interest/posts, then propose a new thread for that show.
