I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

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!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

That is an awful lot of shows for one thread. And the thread did get a fair amount of traffic as an experimental.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

For the record, I really don't want to just recreate all the experimental threads.

Our wings are not tired

Most of them didn't work for me, but I seem to be in a minority on that count. This thread proposal encompasses way too many shows in one thread for me. I think my threshold for bucket threads is probably 4 shows or less.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

yeah. even taking out Chuck, Pushing Daisies and Bionic Woman that's still a hell of a lot of shows for one thread.

it almost seems worth it to do something like a Drama thread for each network, but for those who are really against thread proliferation this would be a problem.

the network drama thread was the biggest issue for me with the experimentals because i tend to get days behind on my watching and i can't go in for fear of being spoiled for something else.

at least with a network drama thread for each big net i could stay fairly caught up.

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

In addition to those, 24 will be back at some point, so there's another show in the mix.

Also isn't Medium coming back?

I only have the fall shows on my grid because it's so unclear right now where the midseason premieres will finally land.

Some of those returning in 2008 shows are 24, Jericho, L&O: Original Recipe, Medium, One Tree Hill, October Road.

Other new shows not on the list I posted earlier: Cashmere Mafia, Lipstick Jungle, Canterbury's Law, Sarah Connor Chronicles, Swingtown.

L&O: Original Recipe

Heh. So which one's Extra Crispy?

Conviction.

'Cause that sucker is TOAST.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Just to trim that list a little, Daisies, Chuck, Sarah Connor, Bionic Woman, Reaper, and New Amsterdam are all SFF and belong in Boxed Set. (I'd argue for House being SF as well, but that's just medical crankiness and not really relevant here.)

And no matter where it officially goes, I feel like Pushing Daisies will end up in Minearverse because of the Wonderfalls connection, even though it's not a Tim show.

Art Crawl!!!

I figured that Pushing Daisies would wind up in Boxed Set because - magical ablitiy.
