Cool idea! Thanks for posting it. A little feedback (after my 5 minutes
perusing the site):

* I couldn't figure out what 'My Programs' did for me. Can I add my
favorite shows to it?
* UI as whole is very "engineer" looking - it could use a make over by
a slick graphic artist. I'll plug my own company here:
www.kinetictheoryinc.com. Give us a call ;)
* Most impressive feature: The TV show info that shows up in the right
hand side. Informative, nice AJAX style loading, and cool.

Good luck with it!

Yeah that isn't very clear, I added that paragraph to try to explain it.
Basically as you click on shows, you'll see star ratings in the yellow box.
Give a show a star rating and it will show up under My Programs.

That would be because it was designed by an engineer, namely me. :) Like I
said, the interface needs some love. Hopeing to get some interest going and
some cash and the first thing I'm pushing for is to get a real graphic
designer.


Good luck with it!
