Also,

our database has 18,000 shows [ sharetv.org/list/all ]. The TV Shows tab only lists about 2K of them. In order for a show to be listed in the main tab it must have at least one of the following:

* has 2 votes
* upcoming episode scheduled
* has videos from HULU.com
* found on eztv.it

Nice look. Only have 1 question. How do you get a list of all the shows?

Um. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that would be the url above, posted above by the administrator.

You may be right. But this should be an option that is on the TV Shows page unless I am missing something.

Like it was yesterday.

I like the new layout as well...

But, I can't remember, was the former hyperlink to "view complete list" that used to appear in the right hand corner of the TV Show page, a link to the entire database? Or, was it just a link to the 2,000 or so main entries?

I think it would be great if the link to the entire database was provided on the TV Shows page. Currently, you can only access it via the sitemap... Sometimes I have only a vague idea of a tv show title, so the keyword search doesn't do me much good - much easier to browse (the entire) database by alpha, in those cases.

Great work Chris! Thanks for the fabulous change.

@Kolbinfo has a good point.
It would be great, to have the link for the complete database in the TV show page in alphabetic order.
To remember 18000 TV show titles is almost virtually impossible. Beyond this, the show list has shows from different countries. Foreigners will lost the opportunity of knowing them.

Ok, what happenrd yo yhe links that used to be there?
TVrage, IMDB are missing so you can get more show info.
Also the links to Amazon, TorrentGuy, Torrentz 1 other(can't remember name)are missing. Only link I saw in checking various show pages was for EZTV.

. I usually use eztv anyway so it was helpful to have a faster route to new episodes but i miss the torrentz link it was good for finding older shows or full series. The grid/ list option looks really good but the previous hyper link to all the main series was faster to scroll through if you were trying to remember a show's full name.

sharetv.org/shows - top shows tab (~2K shows)
sharetv.org/list - top shows list (~ 2K shows)
sharetv.org/list/all - all shows (-18K shows)

I have also been changing the format of the show pages as well. this is a test. I'll try a few different types this month and see what works best for everyone. feedback is always helpful

thank for that, i like scrolling down the list to jog my memory (sad i know lol). There are too many pages on the others to 'flick' through

Chris, with the option to view all (18K) shows only appearing in the sitemap, with no link on the main TV Show page, I think it is unlikely that members (especially new ones) will find it.

Could you include a link on the main TV Show section?

I agree

There should a way to easily access the full listing of shows in the database.
Otherwise we will be inundated with newbies saying a particular show is not listed.

TV Shows tab now has some new categories:

* Recently Popular (not done yet, will list show pages that have had the most stuff done this week)
* New
* Ended/Old
* On Air (has a date to air the next episode)
* Has Videos

and clicking on a Letter switches straight to List Mode to make it faster to find a specific show. comments?
