How did you discover Sitcoms Online? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 09-15-2004, 10:48 AM

I am curious to know how you all discovered this message board. For me, I use to have alot of spare time to surf the internet at work. One day, I just wanted to look up info on spinoffs and stumbled upon SO. That was in January of 2002. It took me about a month to have the guts to post something on the message boards. Before then, all I did was browse TJ's online websites for sitcoms like Diff'rent Strokes and The Facts of Life.

Well I was at Tvtome.com and they had mentioned sitcomsonline there so I thought i'm a lover of tv why don't I go to a place with fellow tv lovers.

I honestly have no idea. I must've been surfing in my sleep when I registered here in 2002.

I "registered and ran", so to speak. Yesterdayland was still around and I spent much of my online time over at YL (I'd been visiting YL since 1999 but registered to use the boards in 2001). When YL went down under in March 2003, I started surfing around, came upon the Mama's Family section on Tim's TV Showcase. There was a link to the MF board here, so I came back, but really I lurked for about 1.5 months before I finally started posting again in May 2003.

Well I was looking for a great Boy Meets World message board, and SO was like the first site to come up when I did a search on Google.

I've been here ever since

I was looking for Welcome Back Kotter and Chico and The Man stuff and discovered SO. I registered under luvinjuan1980 and then left for awhile. Came back in 2002 and have been here ever since.

When Dana Plato died, there was a link to Todd's Diff'rent Strokes site beneath her CNN obit. I checked it out, and it brought me to the rest of this site. I was a regular visitor/lurker, until one day a few years later, I registered when someone on the board needed the lyrics to the Roseanne theme song.

The rest is history.

I was looking for Gilligan's Island pictures and I came across the GI part of the site. I printed off a few pictures and my cousin found them and went, "Why do you go to a website called Sitcoms Online?" I had been unaware it was called that, but I was like eh, pictures. Then at the bottom of the page one day, it was like, "Who's better - Ginger or Mary Ann? Tell us at the message board!" So I went and posted and I posted a bit there and really liked it. Then a year or 2 later, I remembered it (when we got our own computer) and came back and re-registered. And I've been here ever since.

dlemond · 09-15-2004, 03:22 PM

I was looking for WKRP in Cincinnati info, and possibly a way to obtain the episodes.

I don't remember if I ended up here through Google or Yahoo groups or through a WKRP website.

I actually first posted on the What's Happening board answering a question about the Doobie Brothers episodes.

Mrs. Ducky · 09-15-2004, 04:03 PM

I used to post at the TVLand boards and everyone kept talking about this site and I finally decided to check it out.

XxReality*StarrxX · 09-15-2004, 04:10 PM
