The line between movies and television has been blurring lately, with made-for-tv movies, cable original movies, and of course the mini-series. I take the position that a "movie" is a long work (generally more than an hour) that can stand on its own as a single story, whether released in theatres or not, and usually is described as a movie. (It may not be much of a definition, but it lets me decide where to put things like Lexx.)

Sub-sections:

Archives, resource guides, etc

These typically include episode guides, FAQs (text and hypertext), pictures, sounds, cast lists and other trivia.
