It's that time again - the end of BB. Some new found friends and some old friends will now exit the board and fade into the shadows until the next BB edition airs. ~sigh~

This is an invitation to all of you to check out the rest of the board and make TVCH your year round internet home.

During BB there is so much going on in the BB section that many posters don't have time to look at the rest of the board and sadly, many posters don't even realize that there IS another side to the board.

All year long we discuss every other reality TV show AND every other TV show. But, hey, TVCH is NOT just about TV. On the other side of the board there is something for EVERYBODY and if you can't find something that interests you, you can just start your own thread about something that interests you and I guarandamntee you that you will find many other TVCH posters who share your interests.

There are threads on health issues, news and political discussion, house decorating, sports and travel, movies, books and so much more.

There is a whole section on parenting where people who love their children post adorable pictures of their babies.

There is a whole section for animal lovers where people who love their animals post adorable pictures of their babies.

There is game section where posters play games with each other. There is a large section of the board called Animal House. I've only been in there once and I backed out quick because there was just too much cutsie pie talk and weirdness for me, but, hey, like I said there is something for EVERYBODY.

Please after you recover from your TVCH BB experience come back to the board and check it all out and consider staying here YEAR ROUND! It's a fun place to come EVERY DAY of the year!

Thank you, Azriel. You are correct; TVCH is an absolutely wonderful place to find intelligent discussion on any subject, and this is the first place I come, to find out what's happening, on several reality shows. I've tried other boards, but none are as easy to navigate, or as informational, as TVCH.

I agree with you, about Animal House. I guess I'm just not as bright as I thought, 'cause it was pretty much over my head. More power to the smart people who "get it," though.

Big Brother would not be the same experience, without TVCH. This board is the "real deal."
A huge Thank You, to all who contribute.

Riverbunny, I see about every other soap opera but that one. All I can say is build it and they will come! Go to the TV show section and start a thread entitled Days of Our Lives. Start posting about the show and I guarandamntee you that some other posters will come join you. :-)

It never ceases to amaze me that I can come to the board and ask a question about ANYTHING and the knowledgable and intelligent people on this board always have the most amazing suggestions and answers to my questions.

In my small synopsis I didn't even begin to cover everything on the other side of the board.
There is a computer geek section, a member's only section with a section titled Caring Place where many of our members have found help and comfort during difficult times in their lives.

I'm still leaving out things because it's just impossible to summarize everything on the board in a few posts.

I LOVE TVCH! It's not just a message board it's a wonderful community filled with fantastic people.

Prison Break thread!! That show just keeps getting better and better.

Also, any Coronation Street Fans??

Yes, under TV SHOWS there are a small group of us who love to talk the Current occurrences on the street. We avoid UK spoilers though since they are like 7 months ahead of us. It is Christmas on the soap right now LOL That is how far behind we are.

OH, and Biggest Loser has started and America's Top Model is about to start.

Lots of lively areas to join in and blab about the Shows

Fantastic, Wavelength! You will find that there is a lot of chitchat and inside jokes among the regulars, but don't let that scare you off. Very few people here are cliqueish and if you just join in to discussions it won't be long before you will be chitchatting along with your own inside jokes.

Oh yeah, I didn't mention that we also have our own chatroom that is usually filled with at least a few people every night talking in real time to each other about everything under the sun.

One of the saddest things about BB ending is how I miss all of you. It is just so fun to come here and read all the comments and get to know people. TVCH is my favorite part of the BB experience. I suffer from bad depression and it helps me to feel a part of this and also to hear so many smart and interesting people make smart and interesting comments. The comments often just apply to everyday life which is why I have always liked BB. The human dynamics. Thanks everyone! You are all the BEST!

thanks with love, Alice (saba)

And if they're not there chatting when you pop in, post on the board and someone (or several someones) are bound to pop into chat to talk to you.

There's something for everyone, politics, music, cooking and crafts and all year round. As Az said somewhere up thread, if you can't find it, post it, someone else is bound to be interested. Heck at the begining of this bb season, I found a couple people in chat who happened to share my interest in archealogical news and I've been here for years! And theres the threads like the Daily Poll that's always fun and the Only Dumb Question is the one not asked thread which is always interesting. Couple days ago there was a whole discussion in the DQ thread that was both educational and terrifying.

Just go up to the top of this page and click the Topics button and check out everything else we have to offer here. You're going to find something that interests you and if not, you'll find someone who shares the same interest who may not have talked about it here yet!

Thanks for posting this Azriel. I NEVER clicked on anything other than the BB link before. Amazing! All my other shows have message boards. Cool beans! I'll be checking those out soon too!

Great thread Azriel. I added the quick links at the top to help people look around.

There is a lot to see and talk about here!

Here is something that will help newcomers navigate the board and not miss out on any of the topics that interests them.

Go to the top of this page and click on the Edit profile link on the top right of the page. A page will come up where you enter your screen name and password. After you do that you will be sent to the profile editor.

First scroll down to preferences and check off the save my name and password in a cookie. This isn't a bad cookie and it won't do anything else to your computer, but it's important to make the board easier to navigate. Underneath that section click the save profile changes button.

After you do that scroll down further to the Favorite section. You can click off only the areas of the board that interest you. (needless to say probably, but I don't have Animal House checked on my favorites). After you have checked off only the areas that interest you go to the save profile changes button in that section and click on it.

Now exit the profile editor by going to the top of the page and selecting the search option. You can save the search page in your favorites and come directly to it when you come to the board.

On the search board under search by date - registered users enter your name and password and then click on perform search. (the first time you do this it will probably take a few minutes to load because there will be a large number of threads loading. After the first time it will not take that long unless you have been away from the board for a long time)

If you use the search box everytime you come to the board it will load only the recent threads since the last time you performed a search in only the topics that interest you and you won't miss out on any discussions on the topics that are important to you.

You can always see the whole board by just clicking on the Topics at the top of page and you can go back to the profile editor and change your favorites at any time.

Thank you for this thread! I've always found you through the "keyhole" in the past, and only for Big Brother. I'll be seeing all of you, though, for more in the future. I had no idea this site encompassed all of this! Thanks again!

Oh I forgot something important in the Preference section make sure you check "When searching, open resulting pages in a new window", too. Then you won't lose your search page when you click on one of the threads.

Super idea Azriel! It took me two years before I knew there was anything else here but Big Brother!! I had no idea I could spend the whole year here chatting about different things with people. Boy was I surprised the board didn't pack up for winter. :-) Stick around those of you who haven't tested the waters outside of TVCH BB land. It's really quite the crew here. :-)
