I think I should be good to have a Daria review within the next week (possibly by Monday). In that case your forum is ready. Let me know if you'd prefer a different tag-line. |

To be clear, Pear, I was mentioning the Wire as an example of a show we know the AV Club will cover as a TV Club Classic, though they haven't yet. But yeah, I'll add you to BoB. I see that now. Okay. |

I'd love to do The Wire, but I imagine that'll be in high demand.

Hey Douay-Rheims-Challoner (or whoever else is orchestrating this, I'm just assuming that you're essentially the VanderWerff of this venture), are we just limited to classic TV shows? Can one do a classic web series? Web series are fine. Hell, I don't restrict to classic - season three of Continuum would be something I'd be interested in doing, for example. Awesome. Can you make the subforum, as I think @scottbaio and I will probably start up reviews sometime next week? |

I'd have to figure out how to do them right, as a series stretches 48-53 episodes per year and it would be easy to get a bit out of control, but if there is interest, I will do it. Yeah to anyone curious there's a lot of leeway, obviously, in how people choose to review a series. Obviously some have gone for an AV Club like approach of breaking down a show episode by episode, but that's not necessarily the best approach for all. If someone wanted to review a select couple of episodes, or review by season, for example, that's also good. |

Would anyone (besides K. Thrace) be interested in reading my reviews of the short-lived, mostly forgotten EZ Streets?

I think I'll do Brak Show and Space Ghost Coast to Coast, if you don't mind.

I think I'll do Brak Show and Space Ghost Coast to Coast, if you don't mind. Not at all. I'll put you up on the list. As with the others, just give me a werk's notice (I.e. I am going to do show X on day Y) and I'll add the forums. |

I'll do the pilot of Brak this Thursday, and "Edelweiss" for Space Ghost on Wednesday.

I'll do Quantum Leap if you like. I don't have season 1 on DVD anymore, but have 2. Just don't get bent out of shape if I'm not always on time.

Would be happy to do Columbo reviews, but maybe starting in January. Right now I'm busy trying to find somebody to distribute Cowboys and Aliens 2: The Cowboy Abductions.

Hey, I just realized that I’m going through BSG for the first time as a pseudo-newbie (I already know how it ends, but not much else)—perhaps I should sign up for this.
Edit: On second thought I’m not so sure about it—I’m watching it for the first time so a lot of the nuance will be lost on me, and right now I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to write besides “I really enjoy this—oh look this is done well—etc.”

Jean-Luc Lemur Jammer was watching the show for the first time too and I consider his reviews, as with DS9, fairly top tier.  but yeah, let me know if you change your mind or want to do whatever.

You should do it! I'd participate and/or help out if you'd like. |

I won’t be doing reviews—I tried writing one last night and it didn’t turn out very well (for TV shows, particularly highly-serialized ones, I’m better at making stray observations and comments). I’m also something like 70% through the first season by now, so I’d have to go back and rewatch for reviews and it’s too soon. I’ll gladly follow and comment on PolarBear’s eventual ones, though.

I have no idea how I would do it, but would anyone want to read reviews of Xavier: Renegade Angel?

I'm thinking of writing Greatest American Hero reviews. Either that, or ThunderCats (1980s version). Just started watching the former, looking for an excuse to re-watch the latter.
Anybody interested? I've never written reviews before, but I read them all the time, so how hard can it be?

Can't promise I'd watch along with either, but I'd read the reviews! |

Take me off the roster for Xavier: Renegade Angel. I've tried to write 3 different reviews for the first episode so far, but I just can't do it.
Maybe Life on Mars (UK)? That would probably be easier.

Oh, somehow I missed that! I will go read those, then, and think of a different show to review. |

God DAMN The Greatest American Hero is a great idea. @drc - I know I've kind of passed your original "about a week" deadline, but I've had some trouble with Netflix this past week. I should be able to put up a first KITH review tomorrow, though, if there's still interest. |
