(And indeed, I did put it in there partly because I didn't put a "none of the above" or "something else" choice.)

Ticky Box! Because if I want to discuss a show I feel quite comfy discussing in Natter or a bucket thread. Although I would likely not jump in the middle of a deep discussion with random off topic comments. And yet I probably have done so on a number of occasions.

Laga, I never actually watched Rescue Me, so I was talking out of my ass on that one.

Yes, this.

The response to how we watch TV (overwhelmingly "it varies") is why I'm hoping some kind of compromise can be reached. But I'm not really here. I'm grading papers. For reals.

To put my two cents in, I miss the TV talk in natter. I rarely ventured into the experimental threads, because I feel like I'm at the limit of the number of threads I can follow. And though it may defy logic, I'd rather have one long digressy, white-fonted flowly thread than several short choppy threads to read.

Also, I voted that I watched TV when something was on, which is true. But I later realized that it doesn't reflect how I use the threads and talk about TV here because many shows are ones that I see at different times that most, even being months behind.

Hey, is there a technical reason Lightbulbs hasn't been opened yet?

It's open now.

Oh, I picked "ticky box" because there was no "none of the above" option, and I wanted to be counted as a non-excluded-but-still-interested poster.

Me, too.

I don't really have a horse in the race for the decision about continuing the various experimental threads—most everything I care about discussing falls into the Boxed Set ouvre anyway. But one thing I did note was that, to my eyes, there was almost no interest in talking about any network comedies other than The Office. Rather than restarting a general comedies thread it might be better to have a dedicated thread for that show if the total discussion was enough to warrant thread creation.

I noticed this too and agree that The Office fans out there would certainly be justified in proposing that it have its own thread. Of course, I assume there won't be new episodes until the fall, right?
