Ummm, which post? I don't see anything amiss.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's been fixed by the poster.

I've forgotten how long the expriemental tv threads are to be around. What are going to be the criteria on deciding if they were a success or not?
Me, I'm quite pleased. The discussion of shows has been more involved, and it's been easier to go in a couple of days later and add a comment on something. The Non-Fiction thread has been especially fun for finding out about shows I had no idea of.

I've enjoyed the Comedy thread for Office fun, and while I thought I couldn't handle the lack of whitefont in the drama thread, show discussion generally occurs in clumps, so it's easy to skim past and find a show I know.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Also with the Comedy thread love, and I've been able to dig in and out of other threads, too. I think it works really well.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Chiming in with the Experimental Threads love.

What is even happening?

They'll close on June 1. My intention (although the board could go another way) wasn't to test drive these threads. It was to get an idea of what shows we watch that generate discussion, and if there were any obvious ways to group them, or if any show we watch generates enough discussion that it deserves its own thread.

I think the cross-pollination of the genres works well. I'm not one who desperately avoids spoilers--I've been known to track them down to soothe suspsense worries (I read the ends of books, too)--so I may not be the best advocate.

Heh. That depends on how much "enough" is. I don't think I've seen a single show dominate a thread the way Heroes sometimes "took over" Boxed Set.
I think the genre sectioning is working pretty well too.
Oh, balls. June 1? Is that going to be when all the discussion is happening? I'm going to be at a conference until June 5. I hope Important Voting doesn't take place while I'm gone.

Our wings are not tired
I've only been able to go into the Reality Thread because the mix of shows in the other threads means there's a lot of stuff I'm not caught up on. I've been enjoying the discussions in Reality about History Channel and Discovery Channel stuff, and I think there might be enough there to support a thread. I'd like to see a split between those shows and the Survivor/Top Designer/etc. type shows since it seems like those discussions aren't crossing much. At least to me.
