Would it be useful to have a weekly pinned thread about what shows / movies we're watching? (beehaw.org)

There's one for gaming community, where we discuss what we're playing every week. I think it's great for people to share their thoughts about the games they're playing, and also for others to check whether some games suit their taste.

Should we have similar thread for TV shows / movies / animes? I definitely wanna know if a show suits my taste or whether it's worth it to sink time into it.

PS: I tried to post about this multiple times, but ended up not posting it.

I'm in favor.

It might not get as much traction as the gaming one, but there are a lot of times when I want to just talk about watching something in general without having to create a thread for it specifically (so I end up never discussing it).

I think it'd be nice.

Gives room for general discussion without being the only person to create a post about a show/movie, seeing it get about 5 upvotes at most and maybe having one or two comments in reply.

Also, people get nervous about making posts and tend to be more comfortable commenting. It's like that even on the other site. Less pressure, maybe. But it makes the general "What are you watching/reading/playing?" threads more active because more people feel comfortable contributing like that.
