How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What about Bionic Woman and Sarah Connor?

If Sarah Connor can take out both the Terminator and the T2000, she wouldn't have much difficulty with the Bionic Woman.

If anyone can defeat cyborgs, then it's gotta be Sarah Connor.

But right up against BSG - as i said.

I figured Bionic Woman was a Boxed set show.

i've always assumed that anything sci-fi belonged in Boxed Set and therefore Pushing Daisies, Sarah Connor Chronicles and Bionic Woman all fall into it.

I don't have a problem with PD being moved into Minearverse, but the other two seem to be obvious BS shows to me. if BS isn't for sci-fi shows specifically, perhaps the slug needs to be changed.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, I don't see how SCC and BW aren't in Boxed Set.

The new shows I see as Boxed Set are: Moonlight, Pushing Daisies, Sarah Connor Chronicles, Bionic Woman, Chuck, Journeyman and Reaper.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

SGA comes back September 28th, if anyone was wondering.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I thought Bionic Woman, Pushing Daisies, Moonlight, and probably Reaper were all BS shows.

I went through the current poll results and filtered out the ones that had ten or more votes, and then tried to group them into like categories.

Comedies (Really, I think this is pretty straightforward: How I Met Your Mother, The Daily Show/Colbert Report, 30 Rock, The Office

Quirky Drama: Chuck, Bones, House, Numb3rs

Other Side of Drama: Journeyman, Friday Night Lights, CSI

Or Possibly Procedurals/Mystery of the Week: Bones, CSI, House, Numb3rs

This can, of course, expand to the other shows. I was just trying to see if there were distinguishable relationships between the shows we were going to watch.

Unrelatedly OMG where can I talk High School Musical 2 because I am so delighted right now by the cheese.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Okay, but the suggestion was made that things didn't necessarily automatically go in Boxed Set, so that's where I was coming from.

How can you tell what is going to inspire "media fannish" behavior before the season starts?
