Archive through September 17, 2003
Draheid | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 02:00 pm     Now that the show is nearing an end, we'd like to invite those who haven't had time to explore all that the TV Clubhouse has to offer that opportunity. You will see at the top of most pages a list of quick links to other areas of the board. Here is the same set of links for easier access. The Clubhouse | Members Room | Community Corner | General Discussions | News & Views Trading Spaces/Changing Rooms | Games | Movies | TV Shows | Library Big Brother | Survivor! | Amazing Race | Bachelor/ette | The Mole | TV Times |Other Reality Shows What I would like to see is others post a brief description and possibly even a link to any area or thread on the board that has caught your attention, in this thread for those who might have similar interests to easily find that thread. For example, there is an extensive discussion of Harry Potter books in 'The Library' section. You might post something like this: I enjoy discussing Harry Potter If you don't know how to create a link, either ask and someone will be happy to help, look in the EZ lessons in posting fonts, images, and links thread or perhaps one of the moderators can convert it for you when we have time. |
Max | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 02:28 pm     I just KNOW there are more All My Children fans out there! Come on in and discuss. Do you think Michael Cambias is dead? Who killed him? Will Bianca have the baby? Will Jack and Erica get back together? Will Greenlee regain control of Fusion? Will Tad the Cad really get more fun storylines? Will Kendall and Ryan get back together or will they each find new loves? Come on, you KNOW you wanna talk about it!  |
Lumbele | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 02:29 pm     Guessing Trivia Questions has given me quite a lot of pleasure. |
Scbookworm | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 02:39 pm     Great thread! And a boon to those of us who have never taken the time to go beyond BB or American Idol. Fire away! I'll be glad to hear about other resources here from those who use them. |
Wargod | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 02:44 pm     The Lurker Adoption Agency is a great place to start! There's lots of people out there willing to show you around the board and introduce you to some fun people and topics. Got a question and need an answer? The only Dumb question is the one not asked is a great place to go. If someone doesn't know the answer, we sure can find it for you. For those with family in the military, we have The Military Family Support Group. Or if you need a shoulder to lean on and someone to share your burden with, seek advice, or just want to vent there's A Caring Place/Community Corner. There's also Road Trips, Exercise Thread, Who Wants to Lose Weight with me, and Who Wants to Quit Smoking with me. We have fun year round here at TVCH talking about other reality shows, tv shows, movies, and books. If you haven't checked out the rest of the board you should give it a shot. You may find something that interests you! |
Bob2112 | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 02:51 pm     A great way to continue posting at TVCH is starting right now! Join the Survivor Deadpool and play along with the new season of
Survivor VII - The Pearl Islands! There is still time to post your picks before the first show on Thursday (by Wednesday for more bonus points) and teams are still forming! You only have to answer 3 questions and everyone plays as an individual. If you want, you may also join a team with 4 other players for the new (and improved ) team competition. Teams are still forming up to the first show this Thursday. Here are some links to help you find it and check it out: Deadpool Discussion Deadpool Team Folders/Threads Deadpool Rules Deadpool Voting Deadpool Results Puttergirl also runs a Survivor game at TVCH and there are at least 4 other on-line games that have a TVCH league that is open to anyone who posts at TVCH.

Shereebie | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 03:05 pm     I've recently discovered a new area here at TVCH - Other Reality Shows. There's a good discussion there about a new show some folks have just started watching that's turning out to be hysterical, called The Joe Schmo Show. If you're a reality show fan, you'll enjoy this one! |
Vskatefan | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 03:19 pm     Well, I will do my part and go the AMC board! I also visit the Trading Spaces board. |
Squaredsc | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 03:30 pm     i usually hang around general discussions, sometimes the other reality shows area, and right now im totally focused on survivor. |
Zachsmom | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 03:47 pm     Bianca is pregnant? Dang..isn't she only 10?!(children grow so fast on soaps) Max, I swear you are soooooo tempting me to watch AMC again! |
Max | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 05:05 pm     Zachsmom, you SHOULD watch AMC again! Megan McTavish is back as head writer and it's actually proving to be a good thing. We are seeing more suspense, more humor, and (if rumors are true) will soon be seeing more romance. Oh, and Bianca is around 20 now (soap years, don't ya know) and was raped by Michael Cambias (who never seems to be mentioned by just his first name), the universally hated bad guy du jour. Oh, did I mention that Bianca is gay? So being raped and getting pregnant as a result is an even BIGGER thing than it would normally be. Some of us are hoping that the writers let her have the baby, get back with Lena (the current estranged love interest), and then deal with issues surrounding same-sex parents as well as raising a child of rape. The possibilities are boundless. Oops! Maybe I should be over in the AMC thread!!! |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 05:55 pm     I love so many areas of TVCH.. Always stop in The Library to discuss what I'm reading and find out what others recommend, or what isn't so great. |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 05:56 pm     I think most of us started with a BB at one time or another and we stay year round. It's fun! There's always something going on. |
Pannie | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 06:04 pm     Poor Bianca. I sure miss the young princess (dead) and her former young sweetheart. Anyhoo...instead of AMC, I'm going to be hanging at Survivor -Pearl Islands - spoiler detectives with me eye patch and me parrot. Ahoy mates! Survivor Detectives |
Kellirippa | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 06:24 pm     ... Could someone please give me a few details about how you guys play these BB and Survivor games? |
Azriel | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 06:57 pm     Kellirippa, you just answer the questions posed each week in the thread. In Deadpool there are the same three questions each week. This time around Bob has changed it to a team game, but it's very easy to get on a team, just post in the thread that you want to join one and Bob will put you in. In the Survivor poll game, the questions change each week, but all you have to do is read the thread and post your answers in the answer thread. Both Bob and Puttergirl make nifty charts to keep up with your points so you don't have to do anything but answer the questions with your guesses. It's fun! |
Jmm | Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 10:34 pm     Well I read so much of the board, but I think my favorite section is the Message Board. It's nice to have a place to leave messages for other members and have a place for others to leave you notes. It's like the old fashioned family kitchen of the board. Stop by and check it out, we'd love to have you join us. |
Kellirippa | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 09:24 am     Thank you Azriel! |
Djgirl5235 | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 12:56 pm     Jmm - I'm with you, it's the perfect place on this board!!!! Wargod beat me to the Lurker Adoption Agency. I think it's a great idea though, Dra! |
Roteach | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 01:07 pm     I'll still be around. I don't have choir on Thursday night this year so I can watch Survivor. I'll also be checking out the "Other Reality Shows" area. |
Halfunit | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 02:33 pm     Have a dog? Check this out! Dogs How about a cat? Look here! Cats Ask a question, share your stories, post your pet pics! Trivia? Word games? Chess anyone? Browse through the wide variety of games that people play! Games Lastly, this is a great place to post a simple "Hi!" ! ????? Whether it's a Tuesday night, or a Sunday afternoon, there is always something to read around here! |
Pamy | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 03:20 pm     Be aware of cat nappers in the cat thread! Be very afraid!! |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 04:31 pm     OH and you must remember to follow the thread rules in The Osbournes thread, or Pamy will getcha!! |
Halfunit | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 04:45 pm     I even suggest that TVCH oldtimers ( Pamy ) check out threads too! Cat-napping? |
Jan | Wednesday, September 17, 2003 - 05:19 pm     there's a great new daytime reality show on called Starting Over. Everyone watching seems to really love it. It's on weekdays and follows 6 women living in a house in Chicago trying, with the help of 2 life coaches, to start their lives over. we are discussing it in the other reality show thread at this location: Starting Over |
