'Destiny'
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!
What this discussion makes me wonder if it isn't so much about one show dominating so much as it is about just having hit critical mass of too many shows in the one thread. If spinning out Heros will help release this pressure then I'm all for it.
Yes, that's where I'm at too.
Hee, Theo!
Theo, I nearly spat coffee on my Blackberry. You've got my vote, based on that pitch, alone. Future Hiro shall not be denied.

I'm sorry, but I think that if you want a COMB thread, that should really be its own proposal.
It might get hairy.
Save the slasher, save the world.
I didn\'t notice a counting offer. If not I can do it. Profile is good.
Thanks Laura. ita -- can you update votes@...?
Someone asked when we opened the Lost and VM threads. The shows started in the same year, but the threads did not.
Lost 1 opened in October, e 2004. Lost 2 opened in November, 2005.
VM 1 opened in August, e 2005.
I have no clue what's up with the stray Es in that post.
I don't have any great objection to Boxed Set remaining as it is —I don't find it problematic to skim over discussions of shows I don't watch, and the only program I want to avoid spoilers for is in Premium. But if the threads of simultaneous discussion for several popular shows are reaching some sort of critical mass where they're interfering with each other for a sizeable group of people, Heroes currently seems like the best candidate for spinning off into its own thread. It strikes me as having similar discussion volume to Lost in its first season, and I wouldn't characterize the creation of that thread as a failure even if I would the show itself.
