A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Partial Xpost with the voting thread (because I know some people interested in SPN's location won't go there):
I've eyeballed the July posts in Boxed Set. I am probably somewhat off, because it's early, and the math -- she is not my thing. That said, here's a rough idea of what we've discussed in Boxed Set over the past couple of weeks:
340 Supernatural posts
170 Eureka posts
90 Dr. Who posts
15 Kindred: The Embraced posts
15 Should-We-Have-An-SPN-Thread posts
10 Painkiller Jane posts
20 to 30 miscellaneous posts
NOTE: If there was a conversation organizing a Watch & Post, I counted it toward that show's total. Also, all figures are (way) approximate.
Someone might want to do a similar eyeball of a month where shows like SPN, BSG and the Stargates were all in first run. I don't know. I just know I'm not doing it.
eta...
If you take out the SPN Watch & Post posts, there are probably about 115 posts for the show. Of course, then you'd have to take out the Eureka W&P posts (which weren't marked, so I didn't get a feel for them, the way I did with SPN). Personally, I think it's senseless to discount W&P posts for either show, because W&P posting is one of the ways shows generate thread traffic.
I'm sorry you're cranky about the W&P.
See "cranky" isn't exactly the right term (this is what I get for posting and then going to bed). Especially with the links to skip the bulk of the W&P. It just seems like there's enough SPN talk to support it's own thread with a new season on the way. I was mostly hesitant in proposing because it's not a show I watch (regularly, at least), so it didn't seem like my place to propose it.
I think any decision on whether a new thread is made should be based on whether it is wanted by those who would actually
use
it.

Which is why I didn't just go make a proposal; I asked a question. Per my last post in the voting discussion thread - if the folks who watch the show don't want the dedicated thread, this shouldn't even come to a vote, IMO.
sorry, Frank, that wasn't directed at you personally. You just beat me to hitting "Post".

No worries. I had a feeling it was going to be a touchy subject when I made my original post, but I thought the elephant in the thread needed to at least be discussed.
Well, as an unrelated ION... Andi and I have InterLibrary Loan-ed the first season of Due South, and might be coming in here to gush here and there.
We just finished disk 1 (eps 1-8). I had forgotten how good the show was. Plus? only mildly fantasy/SF at first. Except for the Sentinel-like tracking abilities of Fraser.
eta: Hah! I had two windows open. These posts should be reversed. reversing.
I was at HP when Doctor Who aired: my friend S dvred it but for some reason it cut off that last bit. The Doctor and Martha were running away from QE1. What happened next?
Same thing happened to me. Someone on the thread said they just got in the Tardis and cue end credits.
