Television
See also: Movies
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.
