My dream is a thread where there's no disturbing whitefont, ever, and another where people can discuss dvd'ed shows of any description without impeding discussion of currently-running shows. So see, I'm no angel about all this. Nor Angel, either.
So one would be an "EST: Let the Poster Beware", any-show-for-itself blackfont thread and the other would be "Backlog: If it's the Current Season, Take it Elsewhere" thread. Of course both those fall into the dreaded general TV category, but I kinda like the idea(s).
I'm actually kinda fond of "I Love My Dead Gay Shows", for a dvd-W&P thread title, myself.
So, does anyone else have any preferences for white font/black for the experimental threads?
I think it should all be in blackfont. But I think asking for whitefont for any longer than a day is demanding an awareness that would be difficult to enforce if you're talking about large-scale experimental threads.
Oh, I don't know. I think Dana pointed out that several threads have variations on amount of time to whitefont, and it's not that hard to keep to. I'd hope to see some compromise on this issue. Maybe adapting the movies rule-- something like whitefonting HSQ only. (I'd also request no watch n' post.)
bon bon, while you're here -- what was your third category. I mentioned unscripted, but I'm thinking now that you said 'non-fiction'. I remember thinking it was a good idea at the time. What kind of shows did you have in mind for it?
Tell me if I'm pulling this out of my ass, but isn't one of the things with HBO/Showtime series and FX post-prime time dramas, that there always seems to be one running? Like once one is wrapping up, another one starts? That kind of ensures there will always be discussion. I mean, provided they aren't all crap.
I'd love a place to talk about Ghost Hunters (Though I think it is on hiatus at the moment). Am I alone in this?
I don't know what show that is, Drew.
It's on SciFi channel. I guess it's a reality show of sorts. It follows a group of actual Ghost Hunters who use all kinds of video and audio gear to try and prove/disprove hauntings.
