This new arrangement for TvTome aka Tv.com is really bad. Anybody know of any other sites similar to the old TvTome set up?

It's slow and it sucks.
Lately, I've been using the google.com and archive.org caches of the old tvtome for information.

It's not that bad once you get used to it and I'm interested to see how the new "My Shows" feature will work. Too bad that after you register for the site you can't log in.

Actually, I like it less now that think about it. You can see all Seasons in once glance and it takes multiple clicks to get to a list.

http://www.epguides.com isn't bad, but very incomplete

http://www.pazsaz.com/ is OK as well, but neither offer episode descriptions.

I'll guess we'll have to live with it.

I was a co-editor of a show, and worked really hard on my goof/nitpick guides and they're all gone. I'm trying to get in to the old site to copy and paste them over.....

I think you just got to get used to it and give it a chance. ok i am not fond of the setup as it was on tv tome.

But its new, and takes some getting used to. I have been submitting quite alot since at tvtome none of the editors even looked at it or didn't care.

I feel its a good chance to actually correct some of the guides and add the missing info + episodes.

I already started submitting info for shows like diabolik, TTAFFBH, which had no episode guide + a few other shows.

If you don't like it, then don't use it or you could always create a new site yourself. thats what i am thinking about doing.

I liked the old TV Tome better then the new one. The new one is not as simple to get info on shows like the old one was. I think they have a lot more advertisements as well now!

Just my 2 cents worth.

The Animaniacs list is really confusing. They listed all shorts as individual cartoons.
