Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm liking Parks and Rec so far. It's got a lot of potential. I was all excited to actually see where my local Mosquito Abatement Center is today, so I guess it's my kind of thing.

I was iffy on The Office until Pam made the sale. I was just so happy for her right then, I want Michael Scott Paper to make it somehow. And I do enjoy seeing Jim just do everything wrong, though if it goes on much longer I'm sure I won't.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

In the course of discussing the current structure for television threads, it was suggested to modify the slugs (and sometimes headers) for TV bucket threads to more adequately represent what is discussed in each one. The idea behind this revision is to make it clearer when looking at the list of thread titles which shows are discussed where.

This (non-inclusive) listing would not be to restrict what can be discussed in a given thread, but rather to give an idea as to which 3-5 shows are likely to be dominant in that thread at that time. They would be updated every 4 months or so to reflect the changing network/cable seasons.

The decision as to which shows belong in the current slug will be based on bullshit consensus within each thread. When the call goes out (like now!), please discuss in-thread and then post any update or change in Bureaucracy so that the stompies can update the slug.

The proposed slug for Comedy 1 is: Thread for discussion of comedy television shows, including, but not limited to, ?, ?, and ?. [NAFDA]
Please revise and fill in relevant titles for the upcoming months and post the update in Bureaucracy.

Currently, the header for Comedy 1 is Header: This thread is for comedy TV, including network and cable shows. [NAFDA]
If this needs to be changed, please post an update in Bureaucracy.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. The Big Bang Theory goes here too, but there's not too much chatter on that (sadly).

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

There's been a little Park & Recreation (that's the name, right?) chatter, as well.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Do the ones that generate the most heavy discussion, but we can add more detail in the description rather than the slug if we need to, I think.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I seem to remember discussing it in here. It may be my favorite new show because it's made of awesome. I almost changed my tagline last week, but havoc and boobs is hard to top.
