Check out my new cat, Libby. She's practicing her contortionist routine for the circus.

On each show episode, the location of the reviews is just plain wrong. Reviews are the items most likely to contain plot spoilers. These belong on the bottom, or hidden, if you ask me. Plus reviews are the most subjective items and the least useful. I avoid reviews for the most part, and prefer to be able to do so, without a lot of work.


What does everyone else think about the change of location for reviews, from the bottom of the page to the top?

Today's Chuck episode (the wedding) exemplifies the reason that I watch TV. Don't worry--no spoilers here--feel free to read on. Chuck has everything---drama, romance, action, smart writing, and especially humor, the great character-based stuff. Plus, I don't always guess the plot twists. If NBC cancels Chuck--it would be a real crime.


I think I only watch Heroes, most of the time, because it follows Chuck. If I'm tired that day, I'll wait a week and watch the recording of Heroes a week later. But Chuck, I rush home to watch Chuck, even though I'm recording it, and it always makes my day. I have the paranoid fear that on a day when I don't make it home by 8pm, a power outage will shut off my equipment, and I won't get my weekly Chuck fix (I live in the country--we do get quite a few outages). And on a Monday, I always need a smile at the end of the day. I hope NBC doesn't do it's own power outage thingy and pull the plug on Chuck. If anyone knows any Chuck news, please let me know. Ok--one teeny tiny spoiler:





Jeffster performs in this episode. Enjoy!

What the heck happened to our show guides? I can't find anything. The front page is a mess. Navigation is counter intuitive. Where are the notes? Where are the allusions? Why is an episode page not complete with all of our pieces? Where is our list view of episodes? Too much clicking is required to navigate, which is bad for my carpal tunnel. If the company is trying to increase advertising, it won't work, because no one will find this mess appealing or useful enough to put up with this navigation nightmare. It looks horrible and is confusing. I predict a major exodus to competing websites.

Kudos to staff for the Beta test.

However, the new design makes me feel like I have ADD. I can't focus on anything. It's way too busy without the lines. I consider it unusable. The added color--I can barely see it, except for the ugly black line at the top. Every new design, unfortunately, seems to go from bad to worse. If the new design is implemented, I don't know if I will use the site. It's too frustrating to use.
