Ha. Evidently our lurkers just work up incredibly cool css.

Yeah, I guess I'm looking at the long term and trying to see what kind of reorg would be sustainable. I still think it's viable to plan for lifecycle management for threads from the beginning, so it's less personal if we do need to close some at some point.

You've met us, right?

If he is Cupid is it sff? It doesn't seem as much like having a religion when you're one of the deities.

If the show was about him being Cupid. It's a bit like the Jericho example. I don't think a SF element in the background makes the show SF any more than "sometimes the characters say funny things" automatically makes something a comedy.

Would it make the slugs too long to list the shows that are discussed where as they are added?

I pitched that last time. And that's when I thought Boxed Set was fairly clear. Ah, memories.

Sorry, on iPhone, can't quote. ita, I point upthread at defining a show. Is it sff? Drama? Comedy? I think Chuck is an action comedy. The intercept is just the premise, not the story. I say this, not to have a classification battle, but to day, it might be easier to have a bs consensus that a show goes in that thread, then list it on a central page. That way lurkers, newbies, folks returning from life/work and delurking, know where to talk about the new show. From what I'm gleaming from the current conversation, there are shows we love that fall thru the cracks. That's why I suggested a list, whether in each slug, or a page of it's own.

Medium and House are procedurals to my way of thinking - a mystery each episode.

I'd love to know where to go to find TAR talk! Survivor, too, for that matter. I thought the non-fic thread was all about the various modeling shows; guess I'll have to take a closer look at it.

I'm in the camp of people who actually reads Natter 1 or 2 days every 1 to 5 months, and I really appreciate having a tv thread to read. It's doable. And I'd never have heard about Leverage if not for discussions in one of the threads, so I'm glad about that.

Java, do come into Non-Fic and talk about Survivor and TAR! That's where the Burnett-loving folks hang.

To Kristin's point upthread, we used to whitefont currently airing show in BS, didn't we? I don't remember for how long we white-fonted after airing, though.

Is that a compromise that could work for more than just Kristin (not that you're not whitefont-worthy all by yourself!)? Just throwing it out there.

I realize this is separate from the which shows go where discussion; it just caught my attention.

I'm not megan, I think discussing how we structure what goes where so that it is more intuitive is a worthy discussion.

I totally agree with this, and without the but.

In fact, I distinctly remember being told that revisiting the utility of threads was part of voting them in (but memory is faulty AND I went to ikea tonight so I may have lost even more cognitive ability, so take that with a grain of salt).

I find that I talk TV here much less than I used to. If I want to talk FNL and I usually do, there's no one to talk about it with. And other shows I watch, Greys and House.... well, ditto. But I also find that I don't care that I don't talk about TV anymore, so your interest in TV threads may vary.

I do think we might be better served with a different system. I don't know what that system might be. Day of the week it airs?

Kings is airing on the Sci Fi channel tonight.

Day of the week it airs?

Kills thematic cross-pollination and doesn't cure spoiler ills for TiVoers.

I swear last time this conversation happened, we had the whole "how else can we organize TV discussion" brainstorming. And ended up with nothing. In that there is nothing that works for everyone, and no one found the brilliant idea that would solve everything.
