I think Cindy's right, that the bucket won't be too big. Should we attempt to name what shows already attract discussion to some degree? Aside from shows that are already in their own threads, the dramas I can think of are:

House
24
The Unit
Without a Trace
Grey's Anatomy
Friday Night Lights
CSI
Numbers
Hustle


And then the shows either in Premium or proposed to be added to Premium: 
Deadwood
Sopranos
The Wire
Dexter 
The Tudors
Big Love
The Riches
The Shield
Rescue Me

People talk Jericho here and there, too.

I'd also like to talk about Bones somewhere.

2nd on the Bones discussion with ND.

edit: Which I'd put with House, because of the medicalness, though I don't watch any other medical-ish shows.

I think there tends to be some The Closer talk too, although that is on hiatus right now.

We could open threads on a trial basis from now until the end of May. Then we could close them, and talk about what worked and what didn't, and decide where we go from there.

That'd make a whole lotta work for future archiving and sorting, is my first reaction.

What? Adding three threads?

eta...

I'm sorry. I was unclear. I meant trying a version of what bon bon is suggesting (drama, comedy, whatever she suggested over the weekend) from now until the end of May, and then shutting them down, and deciding if we think they work. I didn't mean adding a thread for every show people watch.

I think test threads is perfect. Though over the summer is probably not the time to do it, with nearly everything in hiatus. But I see nothing inherently horrible in saying, "Well, that was a good idea but it just didn't pan out. Next idea?"

Well that's why I said to do it from now until the end of May. A good number of shows are ramping up for sweeps. There should be enough topic generating stuff to see what makes us talk, and what doesn't.
