About the Show Member Challenge

I've done what i can so far ,i'm fed up with dealing with pictures since they really mess up episode guide, i think it's easy to have a simple episode guide with banner on top and simple text containing information of the episode

once you add picture the content become focus on the media not the text. most episode guides on the internet are plain text and i think it better if we keep it very simple and neat. it's really up to you but i can tell you adding pictures just made episode guide pointless since eyes focused on picture not content.

Aim of doing this it to make it easy to understand which i think achieved.

now i'm waiting to see which ones you pick.

Over the past 50 years, thousands of people disappeared. Now the missing have returned.


The 4400 ran for four seasons from 2004 until its cancellation in 2007.


the story:
In the pilot episode, what is originally thought to be a comet deposits a group of exactly 4400 people at Highland Beach, in the Cascade Range foothills near Mount Rainier, Washington. All of the 4400 disappeared at various times starting over the past 50 years. On their return none have aged, all are disoriented, and they remember nothing between the time of their disappearance and their return.

The National Threat Assessment Command (NTAC), a division of the Department of Homeland Security, is in charge of dealing with the return of the 4400. Many of the returned people have trouble trying to get their lives back on track after being separated from their world for years. More significantly, a small number of the returnees begin to manifest paranormal abilities, such as telekinesis, telepathy, and precognition. The first season finale reveals who abducted the 4400 and that they were returned to avert a catastrophe.

The second season explains that all 4400 have a neurotransmitter in their brains called promicin, which gives them their powers. The government, afraid of what this large group would do with such power, secretly doses all 4400 with a promicin-inhibitor which works on most of the 4400. As a side effect, the inhibitor causes a potentially fatal immune deficiency.

During the third and fourth season it is revealed that only a certain faction wants to see history changed. Another faction, which prefers the status quo, opposes the 4400, and has sent their own agents, including Isabelle Tyler and “The Marked” into operation. The exact motives of both factions are not yet revealed.

Eventually, Jordan Collier, who declares himself the savior of humanity, makes promicin shots available to the general public. However, only half of the human population can actually tolerate promicin, and thus develop superhuman abilities, while the other half die upon taking the shot.

A young author returns to his hometown to face the people he based his first book on.



the story:
Nick Garrett left home ten years ago to go backpacking in Europe for a few weeks and find himself. He left behind his girlfriend Hannah, best friend Eddie, and his family. The brief trip ended up lasting for a decade. Garrett is now a famous author and screenwriter living in New York City. Between the parties, social engagements, and living in a beautiful loft-style apartment, Garrett is suffering from writer's block.

His agent books him to do a one-day writing seminar at the local college in his picturesque hometown of Knights Ridge, Massachusetts. Nick is excited about coming home, but realizes the feeling isn't completely mutual although his family and most of his friends welcome him back effusively. When he decides to return home permanently he has to face the fact that nothing will ever be the same again.

I removed the hideous "edit" flags from what you have done of the Seinfeld Episode Guide so far.  I also put all of season 5 in one post for you, and numbered each season starting with episode 1 - to correspond with the VIP site listings.

here are some banners for you, bala
(i told you i'd work on a heartland for you!)













(it's big shotS, not big shot)


(tv.com's banner was horrible so i just redid it altogether)


i can shrink them if they're too long but i thought it'd be nice to have their name easily visible. i can still get you a standoff and joan of arcadia in a bit.

i going keep the rest-i will let you about the show-i will take episode guide.

i got buffy one planned

Thank you sddv, I replaced the banner for Heartland with the one you made, as it was slimmer and nicer.  I'm still new at trying to create any graphics...but at least I'm trying now.   It used to intimidate me, but I know eventually I'll get it.  

Any chance you could come up with one for Close to You?  If not, it's no problem, but they do look nice with the banners.

bala - feel free to start the Buffy guides when you have time and post them here.  That way they'll be ready when it's added to the site.  Too bad we don't know what other shows are coming - we could have them ready too.  Oh well, there will always be plenty to do.

Same with an About the Show, for anyone who wants to do one for Buffy.  If you are working on one already, please post in here that you are doing one, so no one else starts the work on it.  

Thanks to all for the great work!

no prob. i also see what bala is saying about so many pictures in the episode guides being a little distracting. seinfeld wiki didn't have a clip for each episode so i put a few in on season six to see what it would look like. is it better all or some or none? season six link

I tried it too, and just couldn't get it to work well.  I like the Seinfeld ones better without the pics, but that's just my opinion.

It look like this will continued work in progress-it impossible to finish everything-it only me and SSQ doing this-no other member seem want to do this

Reply 97#97 bala's post

I know.  We were hoping more would give it a try - even just as a way to earn some points.  Granny Penny & kwargalla did each do one About the Show, so that helped.

BTW, you will be getting your points (so will sddv & anyone else who does anything we are able to use), I'm just low at the moment and want to save a few in case there are any quiz takers today.  I'll post a remind in Site Management about it.

About 24 (My Version)

Every Second Counts.

Sometimes the men sworn to keep us safe...are the most dangerous of all.



STORY:
24 is presented in real time, with each season depicting a 24-hour period in the life of Jack Bauer, who works with the U.S. government as it fights threats on U.S. soil. Bauer is often in the field for the fictional Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) as they try to safeguard the nation from terrorist threats. The show also follows the actions of other CTU agents, government officials and terrorists associated with the plot. The first six seasons of the show were all based in Los Angeles and nearby locations - both real and fictional - in California, although occasionally other locations have been featured as well - most notably, Washington, D.C., where a significant portion of the action took place during the fourth and sixth seasons. Promotional materials for the seventh season have already established that, departing from tradition, it will be set primarily in Washington, D.C.

WHY WATCH THIS SHOW?:
24 is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning United States television series. Broadcast by Fox Network in the USA and syndicated worldwide, the show first aired on November 6, 2001, with an initial thirteen episodes. Because of the "real-time" storytelling approach to 24, and the series' willingness to directly address the threat of terrorism, the implementation of torture as a way to acquire information and the use and misuse of government authority, the series has generated a sizeable critical reaction.
