Sadly, there would be little to discuss aside from the Season 8 comics. Well, at least not until (if it happens) Ripper gets going as an actual show.
Well Chuck, I for one love the new format. I find it much easier to find content and share thoughts. I enjoyed the blog style feedback but I believe you were spot on in thinking the best way of growing the community would be to give them a forum. Kudos.
…and having Joss would totally rock. Still think you could get the Chief on with as little as a phone call as he is so accessible to the fanbase.
How about Nikki Clyne?
