A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

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.

(Asterisks mean it's a new show - take your best guess on those.)
Thanks for doing that, brenda!
What about The Office and the other comedies?
I would love, love, LOVE to have a place to discuss
The Office
with Buffistas.
So....are we thinking about a single thread for Office (which I think would work considering the interest) or a bucket Comedy thread?
If there are just nibbles of interest for other comedy, I'd be tempted to make a Comedy thread, even knowing that it will mostly be Office (Although I would expect decent representation for HIMYM and 30 Rock, at least). I can imagine reasonable arguments for leaving those in Natter, though.
If there's a reasonably small bucket, I tend to prefer buckets, which, like Time Lords, can regenerate with each new season, as new shows fit into them. Also, this means that we have less maintenance work as time passes and shows get hot or cold.
Huh. So Sarah Connor Chronicles doesn't have a night yet? It is then maybe a mid-season replacement on FOX?
Yeah. We know how that goes.
Also, the survey made it pretty clear that, outside of various reality-type shows I've been watching, one new show (Pushing Daisies), and a very small handful of returning shows I'm still watching, I'm almost completely uninterested in the fall lineup.
TV is pulling away from me.
Yes, it's a mid-season replacement. (I think that they have a day that they're putting it in, but I cannot recall which day it is.)
ETA: It's supposed to be on Sunday nights.
Is BSG mid-season replacement? I'll also be wantin' to talk torchwood come fall, bless Boxed Set.
Thanks for the survey, Brenda, it'll be interesting to see the answers. I voted no on the Drama thread because I really want smaller buckets and I thought there would be more likelihood to pass them now than I did before.
Also, yay, fifteen shows for me. That's slightly less challenging than last year's twenty, though mid-season replacements may be daunting.
