Thanks for starting this. I loved IMDb message boards. Eventually will all shows have separate threads? The more people join and the more active the whole forum gets then surely there will be enough interest in as many threads for as many shows as possible Right now our missiom would probably just be to get as many people to join as possible and to also kick off as many discussions as possible to keep it alive.

Hi, long time lurker and occasional poster on IMDB here. Thanks for setting this up, the message boards were the only reason for me to visit IMDB (and to check which episodes of TV shows I was up to but hey, there are other places for that).
Glad I found this, I hope it grows and becomes a nice little community of movie / TV fans without the nonsense that so frequently occurred on IMDB.

Now if we could only "import" all of our years and years of messages that I so dearly cherish.

::Sigh:: I've been using IMDb since May 2001. Yes, you read that right. I was turning 14 years old that month and now I'm heading for 30 in a few. It was that place I went to when I watched older movies and shows that don't have real fandoms anymore (or never did) and also where I discussed shows/movies that have very active fandoms, as well. Not all actors have huge fan clubs, so the random pages for them were also incredibly useful.
I don't want to go back to the other Jossverse forums (Buffy/Angel) that just want to discuss the comics these days. The IMDb board was the only one that was balanced, 'shipper-wise (seriously, it was one of the few places on the entire Internet that was Bangel/Angel/AtS-friendly, while still having differing opinions), and still actually discussed the shows (of all things!). IMDb really is killing one of my major hangouts. I also spent significant time on the Star Wars, Doctor Who and Once Upon a Time boards.
Without IMDb, looking for someone to discuss, say, that random Mork & Mindy marathon with is going to be far harder to come by.

It sucks that IMDB is shutting down it's message boards, this place looks like it could be a good alternative though. Lets hope it gains some traction.

I've never used this type of forum before. What if I want to talk about the Bates Motel last season which starts in a couple weeks. How do you start a new thread (?).

Go to the main page (http://imdb2.freeforums.net/), then scroll down to the sub-heading "TV Talk" and select one of the boards that fits the description for the series. Then to the right, click "Create Thread."

Are you the same "Jimmy the Greek" who takes bets on the Cannonball race?
