How to make a show post:
- Make sure to have something up by at least a week after you've signed up for a certain show. Since news gets old fast during the summer, we'd like to be able to have all the newest tidbits as soon as they come out.
- Please make your subject line as only the show's title.
- Make sure you include tags for both the show name and the network.
- Please include a small picture (no more than 300 in width) outside of the cut so our members can quickly find your post!
- Also, it's neater to remove all meta (music, mood, location) from your post. Just for uniformity.
- Quick tip: If you make your post before adding any content to it and say "this post will contain information for "this" show" other members will be able to drop you comments with links and info which you'll be able to add into your post. Just make sure you don't have an empty post for a long time.
- And remember to clean up your comments. If there is an old conversation in your post with no information on it, just screen it.

Things to include in your post:
- Time, night and network the show will be airing on.
- Big and active communities which will probably have news about the show over the summer.
- Pictures from upfronts, interviews or press junkets which deal with the 06/07 season.
- Any and all interesting articles from reliable Entertainment news sites about the upcoming seasons.
- Links to newly formed fansites/communities about any new shows.
- Any new promo pictures for new shows or new seasons of returning shows.
- Any fun tidbits about the actors'/cast's interaction during the summer. Like how they were at upfronts.
- Any interviews (articles, clips) with the cast and the crew about the new show/new season.
- FEEL FREE TO TAKE ANY INFORMATION FROM THE NETWORK POSTS. Just leave the poster a comment so we don't have a lot of repetitive information on the community.
- Doesn't matter how you do it, but if you could categorize and organize your information, that would be fantastic!

Also, don't forget that we're all here for fun, information and our love of new shows! ENJOY! :D
