What is new this season?
[Description]
If you like me always are on the hunt for some new fresh shows, and don�t live in the States. Well then it could be nice to have a list of all the new shows of this season. That way we never miss a new hit |

Well you are right people might get confused by my poll, which was not the intension; all I was doing was trying to spice it up a bit
Now I do know about the pages you are suggesting, but I believe that myepisodes.com can be a better place by gathering all the information in one place. And those lists are not that up-to-date that Myepisodes.com is/can be. For example you can�t find the coming mini series Triangle on the list. |

Well they already have the information so that will not be a problem. What I am talking about is a simple list, for starts, of all the shows that are in there first season. So when a show gets added, and when in the database is in season 1, it gets added to the list.
It is that simple
Then maybe splitting the list up in two parts, one list with all the 1 season shows and an second part that shows the new shows since last visit. |

That could work I guess, but it won't be anywhere near as useful as you might think.
Shows do not get added to the DB automatically - users have to request them. Unless it's a high profile show (in which case you will already have heard about it) most likely a show will be on the air before it gets into the database. You will also miss shows that no one bothered to add.
It will never be a complete list.
However you might be interested in a feature that someone mentioned: New shows filter. This might work for what you want. (As a caveat I should note I have yet to see it work.) |

Sure it is useful � and why?
Well it will put more information in one place and in that way it will make MyEpisodes.com more effusion with out a lot of effort.
Second I do know how the data is added do MyEpisodes.com�s DB, what I mean by automatic when a user request/adds a show to the database. Now that beside, the odds that with a user count of 10781 that at some point someone will add a show I haven�t head of before but will find interesting to watch.
Yes I do agree with you that the very big shows wound come as a surprise, but then again the Monster HIT show LOST I only head of by accident. And it is because of a BUG report that I was award of the upcoming Triangle.
I am not looking for a complete list, but I am looking to help make Myeposodes.com a better place
Finally I was not aware of the function that you mention in you last post, and I have either seen it in action so it is rather hard for me to say if it will do the job |
