In which way, aurelia? Would you prefer it be only broadcast shows OR only cable shows in there?

And downloadable shows would make a third category.

I would prefer to split it into a broadcast thread and a cable/other thread. But that's just my pipedream.

I too would prefer that Boxed Set got split.

I think we need to lay off of Boxed Set for a while. Let's get some other things hammered out and see how they work.

I agree--this isn't a Boxed Set proposal, after all.

As I understand the current proposal, there are two proposed threads, right? A comedy thread and a procedurals thread?

That is what I understand.

I find the question of where to put Monk if this proposal goes through interesting. In essence, what it boils down to is which categorization is more defining of a program, the channel it airs on, or it's genre (note that genre is often defined rather broadly). It seems to me that depends on the show. Rather than shunting Monk discussion into one place, why not see where the conversation pops up?

That also depends on the day -- Mad Men pretty clearly "belongs" in Cable Drama, but on at least one day, there was some pretty involved discussion of it in Natter.

I guess my question is really, what will people be discussing in a Procedurals thread. I mean, I watch a TON of Law & Order, but almost never have anything to say about it beyond random guest stars who have since become someone.
