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.
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.

Maybe one thread at a time for the proposals.

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

That works. And there's whatever else the genius of the 'fistas brings up. How many seconds to go to Lightbulbs?

I agree. And also find it kind of low-grade hilarious.
I would like another comedy thread, and I think it can support things in much the same as it was. We may want slightly clearer lines for TDS and TCB, though. I don't quite feel right talking about them in Non-fic; they seem more Comedy to me.
I think a week is far too long for whitefronting. 24 hours max. I'd be okay with that in a Drama thread (which I could also get behind) for Network shows.
I have no opinion on a non-fic thread, other than that I would like one, particularly when Top Chef comes back on.
I'm surprised at how well the Experimentals worked for me, and seemingly for other people. I'm not entirely sure what data we got out of them--nothing particularly popped out at me--and thus, if we were to do permanant-style threads in much the same manner, with Cable rolling into Premium, I would be for it.
I was originally all for mixing the Premium thread with other cable shows, but now I would rather it not be that way. I don't have any premium stations right now, but I eventually want to rent some of those shows on DVD. I'd rather not be spoiled for them, and I really liked having a thread to discuss "The Riches".
