Welcome to The Remote Control! This is your uber-guide to the Television Board!

This is a multi-functional thread which will allow posters to introduce themselves, get their questions answered, and be able to locate the threads they need.

Happy channel surfing!


Frequently Asked Questions

Who are the moderators of this board?

- still can't find what you're looking for? Feel free to start a thread here for your show, if it doesn't fit one of the above categories.


Why was the thread for <insert show title here> closed?
- Threads are closed when shows get their own boards, they're inactive or the event has passed. During the creation of this thread in March 2008, the master thread was purged leaving only active show threads open and on the list. If you would like to seriously reopen a thread (the old thread guide is located here), please PM SusanXG for consideration. Not every request will be granted. Threads that are created for the sole purpose of posting DVD information (you can post that here) or that are immediately abandoned will be closed abruptly. Think before you create a thread.

When does <insert show title here> air?
- Couchville - you'll need to put in basic information such as your zip code, whether you use cable, satellite, etc and you'll be given a great grid guide on what's on all channels for the next few weeks.
- The Futon Critic series guide - click on the show you're looking for, and find out when this show airs
- TV Guide - interactive listings, show information, news, spoilers, and video.


Where can I find more info on <insert show title here>?
- Ep Guides [dot] com- comprehensive episode guides for every tv series ever
- The Futon Critic series guide - click on your show, and read general information about the series, when it airs, episode information, cast details, and much much more.
- TV dot com - search for your favorite shows, and get episode information, photos, air dates, news, etc.
- TV Guide - interactive listings, show information, news, spoilers, and video.


What is the spoiler policy here?
Spoiler Rules - Information is considered to be a spoiler if it details something that has not yet been broadcast anywhere in the world.
- Promos that have already aired on television and small episode descriptions are not considered to be spoilers.
- Pictures from promos that have already aired on television, or are from general promotional material at official websites or published in magazines are not considered to be spoilers.
- Pictures of clips, episode stills and filming pictures of scenes from an upcoming episode that are available on the Internet and have not been aired on television are considered to be spoilerish.
- Avatars made from promos that have already aired on television, or are from general promotional material at official websites or published in magazines are not considered to be spoilers.
- Avatars made from pictures of clips, episode stills from official websites, and filming pictures of scenes from an upcoming episode should not be used until after the episode airs because avatars can be seen all over Fan Forum, and we want to respect the wishes of members that don’t want to see any spoilers for an upcoming episode.
- Small snippets/blurbs from TV Guide/Entertainment Weekly etc. are fine.
- Longer episode descriptions (like for example the ones FOX provides), are considered to be spoilerish and should just be discussed on the episode discussion thread until the episode airs or they should be posted with spoiler tags in various threads on the television boards here.


What's with the rating system on tv shows?
- How Stuff Works - a general overview of the tv rating system
- The Futon Critic Ratings FAQ - a more detailed explanation of the rating system
- The Futon Critic Rating Guide - a quick list of recent ratings, and a key to explain what the ratings system means
- The Programming Insider - daily ratings information and message board.


When does <insert show title here> come out on DVD?
- TV Shows on DVD is an excellent site for constantly updated info on when your favorite show is arriving on DVD. You can also find or post info in our TV Coming Out on DVD thread.
