As many of you have probably noticed, I've been away a while. I had some health issues that needed to be tended to and I was off tending to them. I'm okay now, feeling much better. I apologize to everyone for not getting back to them or letting anyone know ahead of time. It all happened kind of quickly. I'm back now and trying to catch up, so if you wouldn't mind taking it easy on me for a bit I would appreciate it. The rest of the staff has done a bang up job covering in my absence and I thank them sincerely. I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things quickly. Hope this finds everyone well. - Dan

Season 2 and we've got the premiere right here on TV.com. Check it outHERE !!
I saw them live last year and they were really great, really funny and much better singers than I'd imagined. Rumor has it Season 2 wasn't as easy to write as you'd think but if the first episode is any indication of what the rest of the season holds, I'm excited! Murray brings some of the funniest he's brought in this episode, keep a close eye on him.
Hey guys. Based on your feedback we've begun to explore different color schemes. We're still trying to settle on one so any feedback you have will be appreciated. All I have right now are screen caps. Take a look and see what you think:
Hi all. Happy happy from New Jersey. I'm at my Mom's house again this year visiting the family. My niece just turned 3 on Monday and today the living room is so filled with ridiculous kid presents I'm not really sure where I'm going sleep. Cuz I've sleeping on the couch, you know. Anyway, I hope everyone is having a happy one and a safe one. Apologies for any responses you might still be waiting for, we're doing to the best we can to maintain the site and still have a decent vacation. Not an easy thing to do. Rest assured though, your concerns are being read and forwarded to appropriate parties, teams, etc. You guys who have been with us a while, you know the holiday drill. Our main priority, and I'm talking the Community Team here, will be to get the bugs looked at and fixed. That is my New Years resolution. Not much I can do about a lot of things but I can certainly make folks aware of what we're going through and offer an accurate gauge on the general health of our Community. If you have major concerns, feel free to PM me. Or comment on this blog, either way. I may not respond right away, I'll be in Jersey till the 29th, but I WILL get back to you and I will make sure that your concerns are voiced high into the heavens of the powers that be. What's the most basic thing we have to fix here? People have to enjoy what they are doing here and if they aren't enjoying things, something needs to be fixed. I'll do my best with what I've got.
Sorry, didn't mean to get all "businessy" on ya, during the Holidays. Have a safe and a happy one everybody! See you soon!
Oh, one more thing! The support inbox is flooooded with great comments. Keep 'em coming. But please remember - I have no way of asking John Stewart to perform on Dancing with the Stars. Also - I don't personally know Jason Bateman.
The new home page was designed for one reason - to show off the fact that this is a site full of User Generated Content. The comments are front and center, straight from the Forums, straight from you. I know change is tough to get used to but remember, this is the internet and things are in a constant state of change and development. The bugs are still being worked on, they are still our (The Community Team's) main priority and focus. And we'll get them fixed, we did it before and we can do it again. Websites are always getting facelifts and we're no different. Some I like, some I don't like. This one I happen to think looks pretty good. It's clean and we've got comments refreshing in the top spot constantly. I know it'll take some getting used, I'm going to have to get used to it too, but it's progress! TV.com is going to develop into the best TV on the inter-web in a very short period of time. We've only just begun. Once we work out the kinks I think you'll all be very pleasantly surprised.
That is, if you celebrate Thanksgiving. If you do, have a happy one and remember that a typical Thanksgiving meal is about, oh, three thousand calories. A burrito from any of the fine eateries in the Mission District of San Francisco is about a thousand calories. What I'm saying is that if you don't celebrate Thanksgiving, why not try a burrito? What will I be eating? I'll be eating chicken. Yeah, that's right, chicken. There aren't many people joining me this year so I figured I'd spare a turkey and eat two chickens instead. I'm going to cover them in bacon and shove fistfuls of butter under their skin to get that full calorie effect. Mashed potatoes will be on my table, some green vegetables, a bread of some kind, and of course, pie. I'll be listening to the Misfits when I cook, and the Ramones, and if I'm feeling a little funky - the Plarns. Hopefully, my meal will not be interrupted by killers or ghosts. Vampires are not invited, nor werewolves. Plastic man can come if he wants but I'll require a blood sample so I can become plastic man too. Notice I wrote it in lower case the second time because two plastic men ruins the novelty. Don't burn yourself on the stove and don't drink and drive. Don't get eaten by a snake. Call your mother and father if you're away from home and tell them Happy Thanksgiving and then tell them you love them and will see them on Christmas. Eat well and drink responsibly and don't comment on my spelling.
It's fixed! Thanks and praises to our Dev Team! You can pin, lock, purge, move, etc., at will. So go to it. Also - looks like the nasty duplicate new episode bug is fixed too. Today is a good day for fixes. We'll keep working on stuff, you guys keep submitting.
Ah, big improvement, I missed that old level bar and stats box. It's nice to have 'em back. You can list this one under - User Request. We had a lot of you guys asking we bring back this module so we did! Sure, it took a little while, but it's back and it looks great. I hope you all like it, there are more updates on the way and we'll let you know what they are soon as they get pushed. Everyone Stay Tuned!!
