Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

Art Crawl!!!

Shows we watch in Boxed set: shows mentioned originally (but much less so) - also various Stargates, Terminator:SCC, Fringe, Chuck, Doctor Who, Torchwood, SJA, LoM, Ashes to Ashes. I bet we'll discuss Being Human there when it starts airing in the US. I'm guessing that Vampire Diaries discussions will go there. And if that Fox pilot about that's like Sex in the City with Werewolves goes - probably that too.

We discussed Journeyman in there (time travel), Kings (AU), Lost in Austen (AU- time travel to a fictional place).

Does that make sense?

Spy shows, doctor shows, cop shows, pi shows go in either Procedurals or Cable Drama - depending.

(PBS is showing season 1 of MI-5 - so procedurals, right?)

Also - BSG, Caprica, Moonlight - all in Boxed set. Enterprise - when it was new. (But we didn't love it very much here.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I think the two buffistas who watch Starz can figure out where to discuss the shows. :-)

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

Oh, I didn't even consider that Buffistas might be discussing Party Down. I forgot it would be in that thread.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I didn't even know Starz was still around.

Then again I haven't had cable in three years...

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Starz feeds the Netflix streaming, no?

Java, do come into Non-Fic and talk about Survivor and TAR! That's where the Burnett-loving folks hang.

It took me this long to get back to reading that thread, just to make a point about hoping things don't move really fast in here, or if they do, I'm requesting that something be said in Press.

Also, yes! Fun! I will look for TAR and Survivor talk!

I think that the only change should be the addition of a drama thread :)

I would so be behind this!

Re Journeyman in sci fi, I'd have put Journeyman in Procedurals, because it was a mystery about why he was time traveling.

I like the idea of updating the slugs to reflect what shows are discussed where, and it seems like a really good solution to the proposal. I'll give it a crack in Procedurals!

Ok, maybe Starz is not the network I was thinking of.

I was thinking of an old cable channel, maybe it was called The Star channel or something. It was way before Encore came along.
