Glamcookie can expand or contract her proposal as she pleases.
Sorry Glamcookie (sincerely), I did not realise this.
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!

Mmm, yeah, Joss show on TV? Would Dr. Horrible count? Web-episodes of something? How specific do we need to be?
That said....er...I support having a thread of it's own for Dollhouse. I think that if Tim has another show, or other things of Tim's want to be discussed, and Dollhouse is still ongoing, it would be nice to not have to have overlapping discussions. Plus, this is a JOSS show. And it's been a while since we've had one of those. And after all, isn't that what we were founded around? Let's give it a thread here, people! :)
I think it's generally safe to say that Jose comics should go in Other Media, Joss movies should go in Movies, but web thingies are maybe a little more complicated. My inclination is to say OM, especially if it's only a three parter. Extended, well... I don't know.
Well, I believe that we already know that Dr. Horrible is getting a second show.

Agreed- nicely put.

Impossible. The only other visual/serial medium that works for his kind of story-telling is comics. And he's said he can't do that full-time - it just doesn't pay well enough. If memory serves, he said he'd never work with Fox again too.
Relatedly, but of little evidentiary value, I think Stephen King told Rolling Stone several years ago that the last Dark Tower book would be his last book ever. That was 3 books ago?
My only issue with granting web-based shows their own threads is that so far, I haven't seen a web-based show built to last more than a few short episodes. Okay, there's Weebl and Bob, and in my heart there's always RadiSkull, but...
Impossible.
I think his intention is to boldly go all-web. I don't know if that will ultimately work, and really? I'm with you in finding his "Last TV Show" declaration to be as convincing as the Stones (or any other old fart rockers) saying they're never going to tour again.
But I don't think it's impossible.

Combining these two points: I really think if Joss goes all-web, it won't be with a few short episodes. It will be a format with a continuing story-line like his tv shows. (If you tell me Dr. Horrible was a few short episodes, that was his experiment and even that is getting more life.) So I think he'll have definitely have TVesque shows, if not tv shows, that will garner identical discussions and, have the same need/demand for thread as current TV shows.
If you tell me Dr. Horrible was a few short episodes
I hope he does go all web and I hope he succeeds. I watched all of Dr. Horrible for free, and then bought it for myself within a couple of days. He made the sale, for me. The more he does it, the more likely it is to continue, and the more likely it is to push the quality of such endeavors by others. I think it's the wave of the future and I'm with him.
