21177: Neil Gaiman on why vampires should go back underground.

As great as Neil Gaiman is (though Eternals? That just went nowhere fast), this interview would really need a Buffy mention (at least) to justify an entry on the front page.

21175: The canon debate redux and redux.

A link to an LJ entry quoting you as correct in past discussion thread here is really not a good post.

Thursday, July 30, 2009

21155: NBC makes the first ever network online only show in the wake of Dr.H's success.

No real connection between the show and Dr Horrible in the article.

21148: October solicitations for IDW Angel comics.

There was already an entry about this and it got deleted due to our "non self linking" policy. So rather than link to this particular site again, we'll wait till the likes of Comic Continuum get the info.

21114: Angel comics for October.

If you haven't worked it out, self linking is not allowed.

21142: Meebo

A site whose background image is an advertising features for the Dollhouse DVD is not quite front page news.

21337: Apollo Visits The Dollhouse

This news was posted yesterday.

http://whedonesque.com/comments/21119

21336: David Boreanaz announces baby news at SDCC

This news was posted the other day.

http://whedonesque.com/comments/21110

21130: BUFFY Gets Some Love on VH1's "MEGAN WANTS A MILLIONAIRE"

This was deleted earlier today for self-linking and for generally being unworthy of the front-page . . . nothing's changed.

21112: Today's the day... Dollhouse officially hits stores!

We're a website that's Central European Time based. So we're several hours ahead of our American chums. Might want to post the item once it is actually the 28th in America so not to avoid confusion.

Monday, July 27, 2009

21117: Buffy gets some love from "Megan Wants A Millionaire".

Link about yourself on a reality show. A world of no.

Sunday, July 26, 2009

21107: Nathan Fillion Autograph signing at Comic-Con.

This seems light for the front page given all the Comic-Con activity these past few days.

21098: Awesome TV Family Bracket – Elite Eight.

We discussed this two weeks ago. If Buffy makes it to the final then fine but otherwise we don't have to mention every round on the front page.

21099: EW.com Comic Con Portraits.

It's a good picture but there's a lot of more substantial stuff getting posted from Comic-Con. Nice photos are popping up here and there on other sites and it seems best to link to those in a comment in one of the active threads.

21097: Joss Whedon waits in line to party like the rest of us peons.

Ironic, yes. But not really notable enough for a front page post.

Saturday, July 25, 2009

21092: SDCC:Buffyfest Podcast Interview With Scott Allie.

Merged with the preceding Scott Allie thread to save space on the front page. Comic Con kinda has this overwhelming effect in terms of coverage.

21091: io9's write-up of Entertainment Weekly's "Wonder Women" panel at Comic-Con.

Covered extensively on Thursday.

21089: Amy Acker will return to Dollhouse

Already confirmed in the TV Guide Magazine interview with Joss that was posted a couple of days ago.

21087: Impressions on Game-Changing Unaired Dollhouse Episode “Epitaph One”.

There's a Comic Con 'Epitaph One' review thread already on the front page, this'll be added to it.

21085: Joss Talks Dollhouse Season Two Casting.

Covered in the previous panel entries that are on the front page.

21084: The Watcher Reviews Epitaph One

A recap entry with several links is already on the front page.

21083: Joss Whedon Q&A Recap

This material is already covered in the two previous Dollhouse panel items on the front page.

21081: Sheperd Book comic is finally happening.

This doesn't add anything new to what was already posted in the Comic-Con panel thread.

21079: Mike Ausiello reveals some casting news for Dollhouse S2.

Joss revealed the casting news in the TV Guide Magazine interview posted at Whedonesque two days ago.

21077: Eliza and Joss hanging out with EW's Michael Ausiello at Comic-Con

It's nice but it's just a photo. Better to link to it in a relevant thread somewhere.

Friday, July 24, 2009

21073: Quantum Mechanix Serenity Replica Debuts!

News about this was posted on the 22nd.

http://whedonesque.com/comments/21041

21071: Women sink their teeth into Urban fantasy novels.

Already been posted this week.

http://whedonesque.com/comments/21033

21066: Want Nathan Fillion to go to Comicon and whip that place into a frenzy?

Asking for more Twitter followers isn't exactly front page news.

21064: Joss interview on Dollhouse season 2 for TV Guide

Thursday, July 23, 2009

21061: Female Power Icons Comic-Con Panel.

If Eliza is there, we should see some photos, video, writeups popping up online afterward. A front page post isn't really helpful at this point though.

There is a Whedonesque Comic-Con blog for photos and audio from people in attendance as this and other events happen.

21056: Felicia Day needs to be in the World of Warcraft movie.

Casting news about Felicia might be ok. But this is just a link to a WOW movie announcement.

21051: IGN reviews the 'V' Pilot at Comic Con.

We had another review for this posted just 2 days ago. The front page is going to be moving fast enough with more Whedon-centric new this week due to Comic-Con.

Wednesday, July 22, 2009

21045: Oaty Bars on sale in UK

Nice but not front page news.

More Joss related products for Comic Con.

Random eBay auction perhaps not really front page material.

Tuesday, July 21, 2009

21030: Dollhouse Big price change at Amozon.ca.

An increase in price is really not front page news.

Monday, July 20, 2009

21109: The Future of Dollhouse.

Deleted due to our no self linking rule.

21020: CSTS mentioned on CNN

Already posted on July 16 - http://whedonesque.com/comments/20996

Saturday, July 18, 2009

21012: "Echo" and "Epitaph One" leaked.

We'd gathered that by the reviews popping up all over the place. Plus does it really need to be advertised?

Friday, July 17, 2009

21006: Free shipping international and within USA on Jason Palmer Sereni-Tees.

We had an entry about the t-shirts recently and an item about free postage unfortunately doesn't cut it as a front page post.

21003: The Cabin in the Woods: The Official Visual Companion.

This info has already been posted.

21001: Sarah Michelle Gellar shows off her burgeoning baby belly.

Paparazzi photos aren't good front page material.

Thursday, July 16, 2009

20995: EW's Michael Ausiello reviews "Epitaph One".

See previous entry on this particular matter.

20994:EW.com's list of the 25 biggest Emmy snubs.

As explained earlier today, it's a list that was posted at Whedonesque last year.

20990: EW's 25 Biggest Emmy Snubs.

The list originally came out last year. EW.com has a tendency to recycle its lists unlike say Gamesradar or Topless Robot.

http://whedonesque.com/comments/16948

20992: Castle featured in Hulu Days of Summer

Not quite front page news.

20991: Ask Ausiello "reviews" Epitaph One.

He doesn't say actually say anything about the episode apart from he got a bit lost. So in terms of front page content, it's too light for any new discussion.

20984:Michelle Trachtenberg's NBC Drama Gets A Premiere Date

This news was posted yesterday.

Tuesday, July 14, 2009

20970: Jason Palmer's "Sereni-Tees" debut at ComicCon

There's already a thread from a couple days ago about this. I'll post the information about Shawna Trpcic signing stuff in the old thread though.

Monday, July 13, 2009

20962: Awesome TV Family Bracket - Sweet Sixteen

Another entry about this is not going to offer much in terms of new discussion. The existing Awesome entry that's still on the front page could be edited to show that there's a new round.

Sunday, July 12, 2009

20957: Capt John Hart and Joss are mentioned in Torchwood article

A bit too brief a mention for a front page entry.

Saturday, July 11, 2009

20951: Warehouse 13 now available on Hulu.

Jane hasn't been attached to the show for a long time.

Friday, July 10, 2009

20942: Anthony S Head on Twitter

News about this was posted on the 29th of last month.

http://whedonesque.com/comments/20838

20939: Dollhouse premiere pushed back a week to 25th September.

Reported the other day.

Thursday, July 9, 2009

20932: Veronica Mars finally on freeview

Not really front page news.

20927: Fran Kranz & The Cabin in the Woods

Old news.

Wednesday, July 8, 2009

20920: Syfy Creative Director of Original Programming Mark Stern talks Tim Minear's Alien Nation.

It's absolutely super that Tim has a new show but coverage of non-Joss shows at Whedonesque usually extends to the following.

1) The announcement about the show coming into being.
2) Interviews with the actors/writers i.e. David Fury talks Lost or Morena Baccarin speaks about V.
3) News about the premiere of show
4) The show's renewal or cancellation

Tuesday, July 7, 2009

20906: Early Review of "WareHouse 13", created by Jane Espenson.

Since Jane's not working on this show anymore, it's a reach for front page relevance. It's just too many steps removed from Whedon at this point in its life.

Monday, July 6, 2009

20901: Nathan Fillion discusses being in new Halo game.

Already posted here. Please search the site before posting.

20900: Lia Johnson in a Lowe's Commercial.

It's a cute commercial but an unnamed Angel character's brief appearance in it doesn't really merit a front page link.

Sunday, July 5, 2009

20896: Tom Lenk's live show at "Don't tell Mama", NYC.

Usually this would have been fine but as one can see, something else came along.

20894: Small bit of 'Cabin' info.

It's a rehash of stuff that was already posted at Whedonesque.

20892: Pre-Order Richard Castle Novel 'Heat Wave' .

A similar item was deleted earlier this week.

Friday, July 3, 2009

20881: Joss announcing Comic Con goodies

Posted today, still on the front page.

Thursday, July 2, 2009

20873: Fan-made Fray movie trailer.

20872: Kill The Cheerleader, Save The Show

Little bit too tenuous in terms of front page worthiness.

Wednesday, July 1, 2009

20859: ABC goes old-media to promote "Castle".

It's a little bit too tenuous in terms of relevance for the front page.

20853: Now there are 51 registered cities for CSTS 2009.

It's not really saying anything new in terms of discussion since the "there are now 50 registered cities" entry posted in the middle of June.

20854: Tim Minear to remake "Alien Nation" for SciFi

This was technically posted before the other identical link, but fails for lack of necessary period, tags, description and, generally, the kind of care and attention to one's craft that we like to see in a primo W post.  Cheers.
