It took us 2.5 years to get from The Gathering to Lost Tales, and I would like to thank everyone who participated in the discussion, be every week or just once. It was a pleasure reading everyone's thoughts even if I myself fell behind somewhere around S3 :)

I consider it a big achievement that we actually made it from beginning to the end, because I've seen many rewatch communities for younger and more active fandoms die out after a few seasons.

As for the future of the community, I don't think we'll be starting over again any time soon, but I was thinking about maybe having a book club kind of thing to read the tie-in novels. At least the good ones ;) This would be next year at the earliest to give people time to track down the books seeing that they're all out of print.

I've enjoyed it and have watched each and every episode in this rewatch! I think doing some of the books would be great.

Thanks for doing this!

I'd stick around if you did the books - I have all of the numbered novels and the three trilogies, but I think I'm missing one or two of the movie novelizations. I don't have any of the comics, unfortunately. I also only have one of the three magazine stories. I never finished reading all of the numbered books because some of them were pretty awful and so I started being selective, but I'd read them all for this project if other people were.

Thanks for running this community!

Sounds like a good plan.

And thanks for your patience with us!

I have really enjoyed reading everyone's thoughts along the way. Thank you!

(My books are sadly in storage in another country, but I'd live vicariously though the posts.)

So far I can't get ahold of the 3rd book of the Centauri-Triology and the first book of the Techno-mage-Triology...darn it!

If anybody can help, let me know please!

I would also like to discuss some of the books (the ones I bought). (and actually I did not plan to pay 30 dollars or more for just one book...)

And anyway, congratz on holding this blog so active through all this time. (sadly I didn't find this here earlier.)
I think it would be good to make some archive post, like linking all the rewatch-discussions of every episode (I know that's a lot of work but it will extremely helpful for people like me, who joined later.)

Thanks for this comm! I've peeked in from time to time, and it inspired me to speed through a rewatch about two years ago! :)
