You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ooh, someone's got a hankerin' for a calamitous collapse in the social capital markets. When the social economists declare that we've entered a social recession and we need Congress to enact a huge social bailout to avoid a decade of social depression, I'm pointing at you.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Dollhouse? 4 episodes. 6 max. We could start a trainwreck thread.

But you need to spend social capital to raise social revenues. That's basic socialnomics. I think someone once drew a curve or a bell or something.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Dollhouse?
I'm already resigned to Boxed Set and a very short run.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I do think The Guild fits best in Other Media... unless we want to start an Internet Media thread. ::ducks::

Actually, OM makes a lot of sense to me.
It's not TV. It is other media by virtue of being developed for the internet. If it ever gets picked up for TV, then it can always move into an appropriate thread (I don't watch it, so I've no idea where it would fit.)
It's definitely not Joss or Tim product, so it doesn't belong in either B/A or Minearverse. It doesn't sound like it's a genre show, so I reluctant to say Boxed Set. Even so, it's not TV. It's internet based. Walks like OM, talks like OM, is OM.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If it ever gets picked up for TV, then it can always move into an appropriate thread (I don't watch it, so I've no idea where it would fit.)
It was recently picked up by (IIRC) XBox Live, and so could theoretically also go in Gaming. But I agree that OM is the best fit.
