Plei linked to that in LJ. So adorkable.
Cable Drama: Still Waiting for the Cable Guy to Show Up with the Thread Name...
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
In the course of discussing the current structure for television threads, it was suggested to modify the slugs (and sometimes headers) for TV bucket threads to more adequately represent what is discussed in each one. The idea behind this revision is to make it clearer when looking at the list of thread titles which shows are discussed where.
This (non-inclusive) listing would
not
be to restrict what can be discussed in a given thread, but rather to give an idea as to which 3-5 shows are likely to be dominant in that thread at that time. They would be updated every 4 months or so to reflect the changing network/cable seasons.
The decision as to which shows belong in the current slug will be based on bullshit consensus within each thread. When the call goes out (like now!), please discuss in-thread and then post any update or change in Bureaucracy so that the stompies can update the slug.
The proposed slug for
Cable Drama
is: Thread for the discussion of original cable drama, including, but not limited to ?, ?, ?. [NAFDA]
Please revise and fill in relevant titles for the upcoming months and post the update in Bureaucracy.
The header is TBD, so I propose moving the current slug to be the header:
Thread for the discussion of original cable drama--but not scifi/fantasy (that's Boxed Set!) or pay-to-play (that's Premium Cable!). Psychics, detectives, surgeons, and firemen welcome. [NAFDA]
Please post your version in Bureaucracy.
Given the Leverage love, maybe replace detectives with con men?
Anyone else watching Saving Grace? Or, did anyone else watch it, since the season is over?
I found myself quite moved by the end, because they didn't pull off a last-ditch rescue, and Leon did die, and there wasn't some sort of deathbed redemption, either.
And now the wheel turns, and Grace is (sort of) in Leon's position, which is interesting.
I was glad they didn't do a last-minute reprieve. I liked Leon's last words. And I wonder what was said between Grace and the governor.

I very much liked the end. Grace thinking "look at me. look at me. look at me." and then he did, and he died looking into her eyes.
I am a little less pleased that apparently the character that she is next supposed to save is also black.

The guy who shot her was white--I was wondering if the black girl was a path to him.
::sigh::. It's technically spoilery--Hardison's in costume for a con. Uh, not a convention, I don't think. I hope he doesn't do like Michael Vartan on Alias and hit a well-hidden kink.
Laughs and laughs and laughs.
Sorry ita, but that's too TOO funny.
Damn.
Leverage is a heist show, right? I've not seen it, but if it is, then I'd argue it's a procedural. Saving Grace is about a cop, procedural. Damages, also procedural. Hmm. Yes, they're on expanded basic cable, but that distinction is starting to matter less and less. Wasn't someone saying just the other day that she discontinued paying for cable and watches everything on her computer? I think it was beej in procedurals. Anyway. Food for thought.
