House and Bones are the only things I make a point of watching.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

House is the only thing returning on the networks that I'll be watching. I want a place to talk about it, but I don't really care where that is. I'm not deeply invested.

What is even happening?

What about The Office and the other comedies?

Sigh. I know I'm a broken record, but I'd really prefer if even more things didn't go into Boxed Set.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think the posts from today show the real issue, people want different things and right now it does not seem that enough people on this board want the same thing wrt to tv threads.

Art Crawl!!!

What do you mean?

It's for science fiction and fantasy. We're likely to be watching science fiction and fantasy. Why not talk about it in boxed set?

I've not been able to use Boxed Set in years and the reason is that there are too many shows in there. I know that it is science fiction and fantasy, it's just one more show in a bucket that is already to big for me.

ND, I would really suggest putting out there some shows you think should have their own threads, or some specific smaller buckets that would work for you.

As I've said before, I really don't care what's in the bucket as long as it is small. I'd be happy with Numbers, NBC Nightly News, Powerpuff Girls, and Leave it to Beaver in one bucket. I actually like disparate shows gathered together because it is much less likely that I actively follow more than one of them and as such I don't have to worry about being spoiled for shows that I'm behind on.

Okay. This is mostly just for fun, and it's certainly the furthest thing from official in any way. But what are people wanting to talk about? And which ones of those do we care about spoilage on?

Survey!

I split things up by day just to shorten the questions, and tried to axe anything that already has an established home. I also didn't split up comedy or drama in any way. But I think it might be interesting to see where we maybe are on some of these.
