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

I think Cable Drama should be folded into Premium. I'm also behind modifying the Network drama whitefont rules because I was never able to enjoy it given I might be behind on one or more shows most of the times. I want to hold comment on the other threads for the mo'.

I think the Comedy and Drama threads would have been used more if there was a better spoiler policy. Something like 1 week white font seems reasonable.

I think they were used quite a bit. I also think that the amount of people that would use it if there were a one week white font rule would be offset by the amount of people that would no longer use it as much if they had to white font everything. That can be sussed out in a vote, though.

Love Non-Fiction as is. I could get behind 24 hour whitefont for Network Drama. A week feels like too much. I have more to say when I'm not at work and feeling like ass.

Cable drama folded into premium sounds like a good fit to me.

I think folding cable drama into premium would works best (and am also amused at this, since it was a suggestion to do exactly this that started this whole thing in the first place).

Network drama and comedy both seemed successful, but they also both seem to need further modification -- be it white font rule modifications, or futher seperation of shows. They seemed to work okay as they were, and got plenty of posts, but they may need modification anyway.

The non fiction/reality thread so far seems to be functioning perfectly as is. The perfect mix of cross pollination and popularity, and not too much concern over being NAFDA.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I loved all the experimental threads and would like to see them become permenant. I think the 24 hr whitefont that the cable drama had would work well with network drama because it gives you a heads up that a show is being discussed without immediately spoiling you.

I am also in favor of the experimental threads in general and agree that Cable Drama and Premium Cable belong together. I haven't spent much time in the experimental threads because of other obligations, but hope that they are here in the future when I have more time for TV.

I could go for 24-hour whitefont on the Network Drama.

And I'm willing to step up again and formally propose we bring back the threads and debate the modifications.

And I'm willing to step up again and formally propose we bring back the threads and debate the modifications.

Maybe one thread at a time for the proposals.

And I'm willing to step up again and formally propose we bring back the threads and debate the modifications.

I'd be willing to second it. And I think the vote could go much like the initial vote with additional "If yes, do you want whitefont?" and "If yes again, how long for white font?" additions.

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

Does anyone have suggestions that don't involve the experimental threads being prototypes for permanent threads?
