Trust my rage

I did too but then the conversation in Buffy confused me.

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

He's a consulting producer. He's written a handful of eps...I dunno where it belongs. It isn't really his show. Maybe if it generates enough discussion it can get a temp thread like Wonderfalls did? Am I misremembering?

The BS consensus here seemed to tip toward Minearverse the last time someone asked.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Minearverse seems an odd choice to me. I wish we could use Buffy and Angel and then spin it into its own thread should the need arise.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

If I have a vote, I'd cast it for Minearverse. It's more accessible there since so many more shows get discussed in Boxed Set. And I'm not subbed to BS, so I'd miss any discussion. Just stating personal preference.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Still doesn't get why a new Joss show doesn't automatically get a new thread created on airing

Someday I am going to re-read all of Bureaucracy for the discussion where we decided that all Joss shows would always automatically get their own thread, because I am so sure that that happened. Today is not that day.

I think that Buffy/Angel would be the best compromise even though it does not logically belong there. It is a low traffic thread that would avoid spoiling anyone for anything else.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

i've been having a time keeping up in BS because i never seem to watch BSG or Fringe when they air. so my vote is for Minearverse.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I think that logically it belongs in BS but I'm good with Minearverse. That's what Minearverse has been lately anyway. I don't think it belongs in Buffy/Angel at all.
