My suggestions:

Avengers
Sherlock

Oh two more suggestions!
American Horror Story
Merlin (although this seems to be a majority of slash on other archives. Perhaps the het needs a home!)
Have no stories listed:
28 Days Later
300
Bleach
Bones
Dark Angel
DC Universe
Dune
Eureka
Fring
Ghost Shell
Half Life
Highlander
Hornblower
Marvel Universe – Iron Man has none but if Avengers is added to that it might change. Also, isn’t Xmen Marvel too?
The Phantom of the Opera
Rent
Superman
Underworld
V
Van Helsing
Xena
Only have one story:
Angel (could be combined with Buffy – Buffy/Angel) or maybe just a Whedon verse one and have Dollhouse added and Firefly moved.
Avatar
Charmed
Dexter
Farscape
Fear
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Kingdom of Heaven
Lost
Matrix
Rome
Sharpe
Splinter Cell
Terminator
V for Vendetta
X Files

Thanks, Alassante.
I don't want to jinx it so I won't say that I managed to wrangle a three-week break this holiday season and that I'm planning on adding categories based on the requests/suggestions made. My mom is visiting and we do have to observe xmas and new year things in the middle of all that but I won't say I'm hopeful on being able to do the update. 
do.

Alright, I've gone back over old posts and emails and this is the list:
Game of Thrones
Avengers - Marvel
Sherlock
Once Upon a Time
American Horror Story
Merlin
Hawaii 5-0
Arrow - DC
Justified
Spartacus
There's two old ones too. Anyone really interested in them? I had no idea people might still be writing in these two fandoms (not that there's anything wrong with that):
Dawson's Creek
Friday the 13th The Series
While making the graphics for the ones above, I was wondering about the recent series. Anyone interested in:
Falling Skies
Terra Nova
Continuum
Revolution
Revenge
Elementary?
Don't say yes if you're not planning on writing any. Wishful thinking is why we already have so many empty categories! 
Feedback appreciated as I'll be uploading and creating and linking the space in the next few days.
Cheers,
do.

And yes, we're looking at relocating Smallville, Supe and Batman under DC and X-Men under Marvel. But we might have to do that by hand as the database/original scripting for the site weren't design for that kind of lateral move.

I love Revenge but I don't write in the fandom - just watch the show.

| I think the single stories in both Terminator and Farscape categories are mine. I don't mind if they go into some random-fandom pit. |

Good heavens, mine is the only Lost story too. I crown myself queen of writing for fandoms no one is interested in!
So you could dissolve all three of those, if you wish. |

| You know, I was looking for romantic-angst in a sci-fi setting inspiration a week or so ago and re-watched *those bits* of Farscape. Got all weepy and bebothered, even all these years later, even knowing how it all ends up. What a great show. |

Any word on the Game of Thrones section? I have 3 stories and am working on 2 more....Although I can't help notice that Leverage is just mine so maybe you should see if others have Game fics lol
Another note, Do - if you're concerned about GRRM btw, I noticed that on the LJ communities that some of them put in a disclaimer that since he prefers no fanfics on his works that its TV Show based. They give him and David/Dan (creators of the show) credit in the disclaimer. But alot of them are book based fics with spoiler alerts and all.

I watched the show but I'm so not involved in the fandom that I was unaware he didn't like fanfic, so no, it wasn't a worry.
It's just time. I did all the buttons over the Xmas Holidays, added a couple of categories already, just need time to do the rest. I need to find a short blurb for all of them and their respective tags (for search engines). That's what takes time as opposed to the actual linking to the archive, which is pretty painless.
I'll get there. And yes, there's a Game of Thrones one coming, so keep writing.
do.

He is SCREAMING anti-fanfic. Most archives won't house book-based fanfic of game of Thrones.

Idjit.
Alright then. All the new categories are up and running, as far as I can tell. Please do test that claim.
And since the idjit is against fanfic, we'll take our cue from the other archives people have mentioned and not accept fics based on his silly novels - just the TV series.
Many thanks for your input and your patience, everyone.
do.

He was before the show came out but I think now he realizes that cat's out of the bag and he shut up. I don't know of any archive that don't have both show and book verse (LJ, FF.net, and AO3 do). Is there one I don't know of?
