GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Wednesday, Dec 17, 2008

Logging into the site today I was faced with a completely different website then from the previous day. The layout is near the same on the episode guides and forum but the main page and a few other pages are compeletly different, format and layout ways. I for one like the new look for the site, i call it simple but complicated, and no huge buggs stand out - everything seems to be working fine, well as fine as you get around here. The only thing I don't like about the new change is the way they hid the queue and PM box links on the main page, took me awhile to find them- hid them with the favorite list - this needs to change.

Surely they would have a reason for making us go through a second redesign and using my detective skills I found one

On December 16, 2008, CBS Interactive announced that the site would be redesigned into a Hulu-like website to compete with Hulu's website due to its success with NBC and Fox's Hulu. Also, the logo gets a redesign as well. The new site is scheduled to launch next month, but the new logo is currently seen on the site.

CBS eyeing Hulu, web video with upcoming TV.com redesign

So this means more changes to come. So what do you all think of the new look?

I don't like it at all. Instead of fixing the bugs and glitches from the first upgrade, they create new ones... and we're still waiting for them to change the color scheme. So many users initially complained about the blinding white and what do they do? They add MORE white! It's almost like they're asking people to abandon the site.

I guess white is the new black. As long as the site works for what I have to use it for then its all fine, they can make it pewk green and purple(wouldn't want that to happen of course) as long as I can submit and manage my guides i'm content.

I hate the new look of this site they made it just to compete with Hulu so I see know.

Since the most of the site hasn't changed yet, I'm tolerating it, apart from, as is everyone, the stupid hiding of the PMs, I want to be able to click on the tab and see instantly that I do or don't have a new message, not have to hover over my name!

I do not look forward to the complete re-redesign in January.

AS long as it works, I'm happy.

Why didn't I see this coming when the site sold it's soul to a corporation

How would a Hulu-like style? By the way, the link doesn't work. I liked the "Before September 2008" style.

Guess they either took down the article or it has become buried under other ones, ignore the link - you get the main idea.
