Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!  

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!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think that's a good voting proposal, so that those that want to chirp after the DVDs are out will have a place.

Is one month enough?

Because books.

I think so. We didn't have a huge number of people posting when S3 was airing.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

When are the S3 DVDs due to be released?

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

October 23 is the date that's floating around, though it's not official.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

After the DVDs are released would be gracious.

Of course, by then we'll have a Network Girl Detective Show thread.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Would "The Bionic Woman" go in Girl Detective or Boxed Set?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I agree that it would be a kind thing to the thread denizens to wait for DVDs, but in that case, shouldn't we be hold the discussion then? Something feels really strange to me about voting now to close a thread at Thanksgiving.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Seriously, is anyone planning to discuss after the DVDs come out? I'd be kind of surprised to see it (and hey, we're about to have a Network Drama thread, so it could always go there).

What is even happening?

Honestly, I think we should shut down the thread, now. I added the after-the-DVDs choice, because it was mentioned in Bureau. I love my dead, snarky show, but it's dead, and since we've added a couple of new threads, it feels wrong (to me) to hold onto a niche thread like this one, since the show is over.

This is how I feel.

Oh, and The Bionic Woman would obviously go in the female superhero of artificial nature thread. Sillies.

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

Well, will we have a drama thread though? I am not in favor of closing something until we have a place for the discussion to go that's already open. What if the vote is such that we don't have a network drama thread? I'm not sure I'm assuming such a thread is inevitable.

There are supposed to be some new bits on the VM DVDs (e.g. a promo for what would have been a 4th season) and extras that I'm not quite sure about. It might be nice if people had the chance to discuss it.

But if I'm alone in all the above, so be it.
