Regarding Spoilers

Don't post a new thread just to talk about a major event in a TV show. It does nothing other than possibly announce "OMG HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE CRAZY THING THAT HAPPENED" to people who aren't caught up on the series or missed it. It's easy to avoid a megathread until you're caught up, it's harder when someone makes a brand new thread announcing what happened in the first line, which you can see by hovering over the thread title.

From now on, keep discussions about events of shows in their respective threads, and there won't be any more arguments about spoilers.

If you want to specifically make an observation about a show that would derail the megathread ("Here's what I don't like about LOST" or whatever) that's fine, just be sure to mark it as including spoilers if you have them in the first post or whatever.
