The TV Land website stinks! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

SpenceOlchin · 07-12-2010, 01:10 PM

Anybody else find the new TV Land website very user unfriendly and ultimately mediocre? It seems like some social networking fanatic got a hold of it with all the facebook stuff and stupid features. Plus the web traffic to the forums, seems to not be what it once was. Although, I believe that started to decline after Link left. If you like the new look, then that's fine but this wasn't what I was expecting. I know this change happened about a month ago, but I've only recently tried to actually interact with others over there.

I agree - and I hate what they did to the Jump the Shark website. I hate that you can no longer read user comments on the different shows.

I actually like the new look of the site, I think it's more visually appealing but I do agree that the forums have gone downhill a lot

and I completely agree about the Jump the Shark website, what a disappointment - it used to be so good!

I could be having the worst day and go on the JTS website. Within seconds, I'd be howling at some of the comments about different shows. I say they should bring them back!!!

It doesn't surprise me that the TVLand website stinks. The whole network stinks! (Except for Hot in Cleveland, of course!!)

YEAHH!!! The Jump the Shark website was amazingggg! I remember it had almost every show and millions of comments on each that you could just be sitting on your computer on that one website for hours at a time.

So basically it's no longer a section where you can have your questions answered?

Right. The Ask thelink forum was removed the day he left, then TVland totally changed their message boards in June when Hot in Cleveland premiered. The new message boards are a step backwards and I haven't been back since I saw the changes.
