Suggest A Show – Find New TV Shows

18 thoughts on “Suggest A Show – Find New TV Shows”

1. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
   

   First impression is that it is bare bones. There is just the basic Suggest a Show logo, and navigation buttons and a place to type in the show. It gets right down to business. Nothing to tidy up, but perhaps you can have more of a first impression with a motto, tagline or a reason why Suggest A Show is the best. If it is the only website that offers this service, then have a slogan: “The ONLY place to find the next best TV show.”

   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
   

   I typed in “The Office” – results were The Office UK and Extras.

   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
   

   The service is kind of useful. Netflix allows you to rate shows so it can suggest shows you might like, which is very similar and very handy because you are at the place to check out movies and shows. Your site appears to lack the ability to rent or buy shows. I think you need to partner with a TV watching service to complete the cycle.  I have Netflix, so I wouldn’t need this site.

   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
   

   It is an easy way to discover new shows, however you do not grant access to watch these shows, which I think is needed here.

   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.
   

   1) Partner with or add a service to actually watch the shows you suggest. I see that you offer outside links, which is a start, but you really need to have third-party content integrated INTO your website. Your goal is to keep people on your website, not send them away. Sites like Hulu, Amazon, etc. offer similar services to show content that is similar. They don’t need you, however you need them. That is why you need content so you don’t have to rely on them.
   2) Your about section seems a little too short. I would like to read about the founders of the site or the TEAM. I don’t feel like I really learned enough about you on a page dedicated to being ABOUT you.
   3) Just a suggestion, I think it would be cool if your logo was an animated .gif or something that had the TV clicking on or something simple  on your logo tv. That would be cool.

2. * What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?  My first impression of the site was that it would be a place where i can watch tv shows the way you can on Hulu.com. The site suggests places you can watch the show you are looking for but does not offer a way of viewing those programs on the site. I typed in ‘The Cleveland Show’ and Family Guy was the first show to pop up. After scrolling down the list i was unable to find the show i asked for. The site looks like it could use a little more ‘flavor’ graphic wise, most web designers would have used a different type of background. A few logos from popular shows would have been nice.
   * Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?  When you type the show you are looking for in the box several suggestions will show up in the drop down menu, the site will sometimes have the show you are looking for but more often than not it will suggest a similar show and a place to view the program such as Hulu.com or Itunes. I do like the suggestions as this can be a way to discover new shows you might have interest in.
   * Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again? I find the service somewhat useful in a sense that it can help me find a show similar to one that i am looking for. The fact remains that sites that have these very features already exist and you can also watch the shows directly on the site. I would use it simply to see what suggestions the site may have, for example if i want shows like ‘the boondocks’, the site will give me several suggestions on shows similar to ‘the boondocks’.
   * Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort? Yes and no, while it can help the user find television shows, several shows dont show up at all. The show I typed ‘The Cleveland Show’ is on Fox Network and is still running yet this somehow did not show up in the drop down menu.
   * Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc. I would work on getting the search engine to accurately find the shows that the user is looking for. If people are looking for a certain show and the website does not have it they will simply leave the site and find that program somewhere else. My suggestions would be to change the background and add some ‘flavor’ , fix the search engine, and find a way for viewers to watch the programs directly on the site.

3. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow? My initial impression of the site is that it is in fact very clean looking.  I would like to see a little more professional font style used as your overall font though.  The grayish color doesn’t really pop.  It also could be a little larger in style.  Overall I feel there is too much white blank space left in the page.  I would suggest either bringing the search engine and text down a little to be centered on the page, or deleting some of the overall white blank areas.    Other than that, it is pretty right to the point.
    
   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results? It’s very clear.  I’m not to sure how far back you are going with this though.  I tried to type in 3rd Rock, and also the old show Golden Girls and could not find either one.  Otherwise, I like the overall way to search.  I like that I can find shows similar to what I would want to watch on TV.
    
   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again? Yes, I did find it useful.  I am not always aware of what is out there and how something compares to a program which I know I will like.   This is definitely something I can use to find similar shows to my liking.  Yes, I will use it again.
    
   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort? I think it’s a great way to discover new TV shows.  For instance, I typed in Desperate Housewives.  My results were programs I have never really heard much about, but now that I know they are similar to the type of show I LIKE, I will definitely be watching them in the future!
    
   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc. Other than the above-mentioned font issue… I had a slight delay when opening your Blog page.  I almost felt like I was being taken to a site other than yours.   When I got into the Blog section, I found all of the posts to be displayed on the one page.  It’s a very long page, maybe that’s why there is a hesitation in opening.  I think that maybe you should limit either your posts or the amount of the post that is actually displayed on the page.  You could carry the posts over to a new page with a “See Older Posts”, or just include a brief Title of your post on the page.  That way your visitors can click to see the whole post.
    
   Also, I know this is picky and all, but if you’re like me, you want everything to flow well.  On your Contact page, I would suggest the box being centered to flow with the rest of your site.  Currently, I believe it is at the left margin, whereas, everything else is centered.
    
   Otherwise, a great site with a great idea!

4. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
   My first impression is that the site is quite plain. I don’t think it needs to be “tidied up” at all. Just the opposite! There’s nothing exciting about the site to draw me in and get me interested. At first glance, I’m not even sure of the purpose of the site. Take a look at a site like http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com. This is a TV review and discussion site. Notice how they have a cute logo and slogan and dress up their homepage with screenshots from various programs. I’d suggest a similar design for you. I’d also revise the copy on your homepage because it just doesn’t communicate what your site is all about. I see that it’s called Suggest a Show, but I don’t know whether that means your site writes reviews or allows users to ranks shows or what. I’d suggest you have a line or two front and center saying something like, “Tell us what shows you like, and we’ll recommend a bunch that you’ll love!”
    
   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
   First of all, you have a pretty decent selection of shows. I like that you include some popular shows that are no longer on the air because many of those shows still have dedicated fans. If I were you, I’d include even more of those canceled shows because often viewers are most interested in finding a new show when a favorite old one has gone off the air. Personally, I’ve heard a lot of people ask why they don’t make TV shows like such-and-such anymore. If you were to add more of these old favorites into your database, I think it might be very useful for people who miss them to see what’s out there today that might satisfy their craving for something similar.
    
   Second, I tried several searches and thought the results were good. I like that you order them by match percentage, I like the expandable descriptions, and I like that users can filter results by which shows are currently on the air. (I suggest you also allow users to filter by shows that are off the air.) I was impressed with your range of suggestions, which included some shows that were completely new to me.
    
   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
   I do find it useful, and there’s a good chance I would use it again. However, I have to admit that I wonder if you can sustain a whole site based just on this one search feature. Although I can see myself using it on occasion, it’s certainly not the kind of thing I would use daily, weekly, or even monthly. Basically, I’d probably only use it when looking for new shows at the beginning of the season (fall). I wish there was something else at the site to keep me coming back regularly. I’m thinking of discussion forums, reviews, rankings, spoilers, insider anecdotes, and/or some kind of social networking aspect such as the ability to create fan profiles. If you expanded the site in a direction like that, I think you’d get a lot more traffic.
    
   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
   Oh, yes. It’s very easy to use.
    
   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.
   I think you have a nice concept. But I think you also need to a) dress up the site and b) consider expanding to include features other than just the matching service. Regarding the first point, I checked out your other pages–About and Blog–and found the same issue throughout the site. You really should jazz it up with some screenshots from TV shows, pics of actors and actresses, and so on. Your about page is awfully skimpy; the blog is better but just needs more visuals. Regarding the second point, again, I think this site has a lot of unrealized potential. Many TV shows have HUGE audiences that you could tap into by figuring out a way to keep them around instead of just suggesting new shows and sending them off into the ether. Even if you don’t want to set up forums or hire reviewers and all that, I think you should at least consider allowing users to comment on shows, rate them, and otherwise participate more actively (or interactively) in the site.

5. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?

   Sorry, I am not too impressed with the homepage.  Seems very generic, no graphics, no pizzazz.  If this is website to research TV programs then it should display this.  The minute someone goes to your website they should see something that will grab their attention and make them want to stay to explore it further, that’s not the way it look right now.

   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?

   I tried doing a search on the classic TV series I Love Lucy, nothing happened, and there was no search button that I could see.  Finally I settled on Big Brother, and what did I get a bunch of listings for a whole lot of reality shows none of which were Big Brother, so I didn’t like the results.  Not that I am interested in this series, however, if I was this wouldn’t have been an adequate search to give me information on it.

   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?

   I think this service could be useful, if you worked on it.  Like I said the show I was looking for wasn’t listed, and it should have been the first program listed, then the other relevant listings could follow, this wasn’t the case.  Would I use it again, only if it were tweaked, and maybe included TV programs even from the past, which obviously isn’t the case right now.

   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?

   Well I know nothing about Big Brother, not that I am interested but if I was this wasn’t an easy way to find information on it, there was no listing for it, in a search that was for this program. 

   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.

   I don’t like the fact that it would appear that at the moment classic TV programs aren’t included.  You would be amazed at the fan base that these programs have, and how people want to find out information about them.  Also, the over all search isn’t good, if you like a particular show you should be able to find it, not have other programs pop up instead.  So I think this search engine needs to be worked on, this website does have potential but it still needs some work to be what you have in mind with it.

6. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
   the site is clean but it is perhaps too clean. It is clear what the purpose is but the site could use some spicing up. It is lacking graphics and maybe some from the TV shows themselves.
   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
   I tried to find the show “the big bang theory” but it was not on the list. So I clicked the link to add a show and on the target page I entered the show. Now first off my comments about this target page are that it should have some graphics on it connecting the sites theme together. It is just a big blank page. It also needs a return link to the original or first page. After submitting my TV show for addition to the list I was sent to another otherwise blank page except for the word “thanks” in the upper left corner. Once again this page should be tied into an overall theme for the site and should also include a return link to the first / main page for the site.
   Now I tried the search again for another show and the results did give me some shows that I thought were interestingly similar to my search request. I liked it.
   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
   Yes I think the service is useful. It is a quick way to find shows that you my already like and don’t know it yet. I do believe I would come back and reuse the site from time to time, but not on a regular basis because I don’t think I would find myself entering everything I watch just to see what matches up to it. But I would keep it in my bookmark folder of reference sites.
   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
   Yes this is an easy way to find new shows to watch and as I said earlier I would use it from time to time.
   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.
   I already included the items I would change cosmetically and also functionally in the previous questions. I would add graphics that tie into some specific TV shows, add back links to pages resulting from adding shows and also add a overall theme to all pages of the site. I like that I didn’t have to join anything to get my results please keep it that way. However you could add an option to join if you would like to save specific shows from your search results and that way be able to print out a list of the new shows you would like to watch.

7.  
   What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
   It is clean, I’d use the word plain. You can work more on the layout. The fonts are too small. The most important element of the website is the search box. I suggest to use a bigger search box, bigger fonts so that this searching feature is more prominent than other elements; by the way the search box is the only element right now. So it’s more important to make it bigger than other features as there are a lot of white space on the page, too much white space will make users think your website is boring.
    
   I also suggest you to make a web2.0 website, which is the common trend on new websites today.
    
   The layout right now is too plain and unattractive. Try to use a little lighter color on the dark blue. Black bolded words on dark blue background doesn’t make it more readable.
    
   The line above the search box is some description for what this website is. Promote the line by using shorter phases and add css and style to highlight it. You can take a look on startuplift, there are some website which has outstanding layout, and most of them too, only operates by search, see how they make their frontpage more interesting by introducing some related content of the website. In start up websites, when you don’t have many information to display, you have to try your best to put more content on the front page to tell users you have a content-rich website, that’s the way to make it professional. So, add a few features instead of the search box to attract users.
    
   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
    
   Yes I can find a show, the search box operates very well, and the automation is done smoothly.
    
   The thing I have to complain is that I have to find a show, you ask us to find a show and I have to think…. what show should I find? And we will be disappointed if the show I think of is not found on the list. Why don’t you suggest one for us! Many of us, when first visit your site, want to learn about new and interesting tv shows, I only find a show because I’m told to do so right here. I think the website could cite some of the popular genes of tv shows, and if I’m interested in that catagory, I’ll then check it out. This is one of the new feature you can add.
    
   The results are quite good. Those suggested shows matched the search quite well.
    
   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
    
   Yes the service is useful. I won’t come back often, but I’ll save this as my second, or third choice in case I can’t find anything similar. Mostly I’ll hook up on imdb when I need to find information on movies and tv shows. There are also amazon which have similar recommendations. A good thing for your site is that I see your search result is more accurate than the aboved mentioned popular sites. Way to go. For me I seldom find a tv show based on the ones I have watched. If a new show is out, I’ll watch the trial and the ratings but won’t judge by the category (for example that show is similar to (let say) LOST that I’ve seen).
    
   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
    
   Yes that’s easier, but tv shows are not like movies, if I have to watch it, for me I either finish it all or I don’t watch it. If it is just an hour, I can afford to try the recommended ones, but for tv shows, it’d be a few days of catching up. That’s why I won’t pick up a tv series unless I know it worths my time. That’s why a rating is very important. I can see how much the public like the show then I know is my time worth spending on watching it.
    
   When time goes on, there will be more and more shows. For example I like Fringe, the site suggest X-Files. But I’m not interested in shows which is shown a long while ago. Not only me, I think users are more interested in new shows rather than out-dated ones. I understand that the best match is X-files, but I would pick a more recent, such as 4400 instead of X-files. The time gap of shows will increase when time goes on. If this is a feature that you want, off you go.
    
   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.
    
   I also found that you have some shows marked as editor’s pick. But this mark is a little personal, users don’t know what kind of person the editor is, and most importantly, what favourites do the editor has, should we trust the “editor”?
    
   So I have the search results, then I clicked on one of the recommended items to learn more about it. It just shows me the recommended shows based on the selected item. I hope you have some more details on the shows so we can learn more about it.
    
   In this moment I can’t figure out how to make the site the profitable unless you’re opening up a tv shows store or from advertisement. Yes you can include a little advertisement such as adsense, don’t overuse it. But if you want to build a store it would be rather complicated and it may take you months in the web development side of handling money transactions, stocks and inventory, I’m not sure if this is your goal. I also noticed that you have an amazon link, make sure you’re one of their associates.
    
   Blog more often. The last blog is 3 months ago. It will improve your SEO and search engines will like you more. You can blog on any new updates on websites or any tv series related stuff. If it’s not garbage, the more you blog the better. You can try it by making a least 1 blog a week. The more person you have on your team, the easier to blog as all of you can take turns to be responsible for the blog entry. Or maybe you can explain more on the editor picks shows.
    
   TV series aren’t like movies, audiences have to pay much more time and attention in finishing a whole series. It’s awesome to search for tv series which I may be interested in. The only risk of this is that if an user follow your recommendation, and turn out he doesn’t like it. He would no longer trust your site as you have wasted him a lot of time.
    
   You may also like to add movies into your site in the future. It’d be more interesting to see which film is similar to tv series ‘Lost’. It will also provide more choices for users.

   Good Luck!
    

8. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?

   Website needs help!!! The home page is completely plan and uninteresting!!! It’s going to require a lot of work!! When your promoting something you need to make it stand out, more colors TV show picture some bigger fonts

   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?

   Tried finding HOUSE and THE SECRET LIFE OF THE AMERICAN TEENAGER but they didn’t come up!!! I didn’t like the results they gave and i’m wondering exactly how it works

   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?

   NO I do not like this service and I do not want to come back to this website!!!!

   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?

   I don’t even think this is worth my efforts!!! If there is something in particular that I wish to watch thats what I want to watch I don’t want a listing of shows the are similar to the one I’m looking for!!!

   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc. 

   I’ve expressed my feeling for this site and I don’t Find it at All good!!

9. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?

   Honestly your website is plain boring, unprofessional and simply bad. You absolutely need to change it!

   But after typing in a show and after consideration of its purpose, there is not much you can do really, for some improvement though, read below.

   Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?

   No I don’t like the results. You limit it a lot but allowing me to “click” only on certain films. There wasn’t even “One and a half man”…

   Hope that you will increase your database enough.

   Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?

   No I don’t find it very useful right now. If I want to watch a new serie/movie, I would firstly ask my friends, or an official website like imdb that gives me review.

   Maybe that’s what you are missing, a review or “opinion” section.

   Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?

   Yes it is easy but not worth it. Your database is greatly limited, you could add more features and thus increase the worth of your website much more.

   Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.

   you could add a filter. such as sort by alphabetical order, or most popular, or newest etc…

   1. Allow users to give their opinions on various shows
   2. Allow user to select the rating of the matches, and thus you will get a pretty good match after a while
   3. Change your logo, it’s boring and plain
   4. Homepage could be better – with a description of your website and some images as well, maybe put a “Latest shows” in your homepage or a summary of your latest post.
   5. You should also allow facebook accounts to interact with your website, not just tweeter

   Overall, it is a pretty interesting idea that I had never thought of! But currently, your website is not worth it but it could change.

   Make a more entertaining welcome page and you would be good to go. Allow the visitors to interact with your websites as well, giving opinions etc…

   And most important thing, Good luck and don’t give up!
    

10. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?

    It’s a simple site which does not look attractive and interesting for me. It look clean but does not look professional. The page layout is too simple. I suggest that you first design a picture with some description about how your site works on it. Then below the search engine you can suggest for the most popular show or most visited show instead of leaving it blank. This will make the site look more professional and interesting. To make it attractive, i suggest you can display famous show at he right or left hand side to allow catch people attention. If the show is famous they might want to click and see it. This will start the visitor from viewing show from your site. 

    Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?

    Yes it is clear and the listing is tidy which make me feel comfortable. I like that you have the percentage stating the matching % which is a very good for the visitor to know it. I thought i can watch the show free from your site. But the result shows that i have to watch it or download it from other source which require me to pay. For not letting the visitor down, i suggest that you elaborate the main purpose of your website. Some of the visitor might confuse that they can watch free show streaming from your site. Your service is good for comfort of people searching for the show they like and provide the source to the user. This is a good service but you should elaborate it at the homepage so that people does not confuse. 
    

    Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?

    Yes i find it is useful for me when i wanted to watch a show and i want to find it on the internet. Yes i will when i want to search for show. But if your site provide a free streaming show i would definitely come back and watch it directly from your site.
    

    Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?

    Yes it easy as we just have to type the name of it and the search engine do all the stuff for us. 
    

    Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc.

    I found that your site is only connect with twitter, why not include facebook?. I think i have covered most of the important matter above. If you can, i think providing a free streaming show would creating a very big opportunity for your site. You can then charge a fee for the members who want to watch free new shows. At the main page, i suggest that you can create a TV shaped slideshows to display how your site works and the purpose of your site. This might attract the visitor and also make people feel that your site look professional.

11. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
    My first impression was that the website was really plain.  It would be nicer if the search tool was bigger, it just doesn’t make much sense to have an entire page with just a small search bar.  I do understand the concept of less is more, but do think the website could have a bit more of a ‘wow’ factor.
    Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
    Searching for a show was very easy.  I searched for ‘Undeclared’ and although it did not show me this particular show it showed me some great shows: Party Down, Mike & Molly, Seinfeld, The New Adventures of Old Christine.  It also gave me the option to search for currently airing shows which was also really cool.
    
    Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?

    I actually really liked the service and discovered some shows I want to watch just by that one search.  I will definately use this site again!
    Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
    I did find it very useful, it would be nice if you could link it up with a Netflix or a Zune account.  But regardless it doesn’t take much effort to write them down and then put them in your Netflix queue.
    Please share anything else you like, don’t like, want to see changed, etc
    Like I said, I really found the site useful, it did what it is supposed to do, but could use a little ‘bling’ on the home page.

12. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
    My first impression was that there’s not much on the website itself. I also that  there was an over use of the little tv’s as when used as the tabs. The page itself looks so simple it’s really hard to say that it has a professional look. All I can think is that you page looks very basic. I think that it could have a more robust look with  some added colors and a more involved layout. I clicked on all of the tabs and again each tab is very basic looking. Sorry but you site was a very old looking feel to it. I would have liked to more refined colors, better descriptions under each tab and some of the shows that you feature (old and new). I think that if your site showed some of the shows it features that would get people more excited in hopes to find ones that they haven’t seen in a while.
    Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
    I liked the results of the shows that I found. I understand  how it works but what if I want to find the actual show that I  typed in? The results gave me shows that were new and old and also ones that I had never seen before which was nice. I’m not sure how you broke up the shows in sections of all shows and currently airing. Meaning that when I clicked on all shows it did not bring up the shows that were currently airing with it. I think that maybe the title should be different, like best matches, instead of all shows.
    Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
    I find the service useful in that I can find similar shows to the ones that I like but again if I want to find and exact show how would I go about doing that? I would come again because your site allows people to find shows that they haven’t seen in a while.
    Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
    Yes, your site would be easy for any user.

    I would liked to have seen more venues in being able to watch the shows on your site. I see that you only have itunes, hulu and amazon. As far as hulu in concerned they also have hulu plus so it would nice to know if it there also. Some of these shows might be featured on netflix or things of the like. I would also suggest not listing the shows on sites that don’t provide a full episode. I clicked on one show on hulu and all it gave me was clips. That was very disappointing being that there nothing trully to watch. It would nice to also know how you do your rating scale. Now as I look further down the page you put full episodes under hulu on some of the them I would suggest puting the clips under the ones with just that. I would even suggest that your site air video’s on it if possible. I just don’t understand why your site can’t just find what i’m looking for and the next best thing. I like your site but it’s just maybe to simple.

13. What is your first impression of the site? Is it clean/professional? Or should it be tidied up/changed somehow?
    When I first entered the site I thought it was empty.  If I did not see it on StartUpLift, I would not know the purpose of the site.  The site is clean, but the lack of information makes it appear unprofessional.  The site should be changed to add information about the purpose of the site to the sign on page.  For example, there could be a brief summary (maybe 2 paragraphs) about the company on the first page.
    Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
    The instructions are simple and user-friendly.  The show I typed did yield the appropriate results.  However, the shows displayed were not new shows.  Some shows have been on for several seasons, while others were discontinued. For example, I did a search for Criminal Minds and “The Closer” from TNT was one of the shows that came up under “Currently Airing”; however, The Closer is no longer airing.  Additionally, some of the information regarding the shows is outdated and should be updated to include current information.

    Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
    I found the service useful for finding shows similar to the show I entered.  I would come back again, but would like to see current information regarding the shows.

    Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
    Unfortunately, I do not think this is a useful tool for finding “new” shows, but it is helpful in finding existing ones.

    The only other thing I would suggest is that the site employ someone to keep track of new seasonal lineups. The major networks (NBC, ABC, FOX) recently announced shows they were renewing and discontinuing.  Employing someone to keep of track of this information would be valuable to the site.

    It is a little plan.  It is clean but it would not hold my attention very long.
    Try finding a show. Is it clear how it works? Do you like your results?
    The first show I attempted to find, there were no matches. It is very easy to use and the results received were excellent matches.
    Do you find this service useful? Would you come back and use it again?
    No, not particularly.  I doubt I would visit and use again.
    Do you find this is an easy way to discover new TV shows, or not worth your effort?
    It is easy to use but I would definitely consider it a waste of my time.
