It's been a few days and I thought I'd wait a bit and give a response. So far, not liking the more posts in general. Especially the paragraph and a video ones.

Now, yes, other sites do it, but not to an annoying degree. I kinda like io9.com's set up of mixing in short posts and longer content. But the major difference is that when other sites have a short post there tends to be a bit more meat to it.

The random preview of Chuck or various show is annoying, but if they were lumped into one daily post of today's shows it might have some value.

Guess I'm suggesting the short posts should have value some sense of news worthy-ness. They are getting better, but really need to cut back on the random video, or content for the sake of content.

I want more reviews. I know you say they don't draw readers, but that is what I want most. I like to read the recaps of shows I don't even watch.

I am not a big fan of the short posts/clips because they seem redundant to me and I have to weed through more stuff. I want news, recaps, reviews and analysis.

Blips and blurbs are not why I read here. And I do think I read here less and less all the time.

The overall feeling I've gotten from reading the Admin's responses is that you feel it's okay on other sites the way they do things, so de facto you're telling us we should accept it. There used to be a reason that I came here and it was to read the recaps, something I couldn't find on other sites. I can still find some of my shows nowadays, but don't visit nearly enough. If I wanted TVS to be like the other sites, well, I would have been visiting those other sites already.

I dislike the short posts. I agree with previous posters that they seem ripped off from others. Uniqueness is what drew me to this site, if I want repeated news I can go elsewhere. Stating that no one on this site is willing to spend the time admits to laziness and sounds very unprofessional.

With the additions to the site in regards to the videos, I have a heck of a time loading pages now. It freezes and takes minutes to load and I'm on cable. If this continues I will have to take my reading elsewhere. You have already failed the security settings at my place of employment who now have the site blocked - the site has not always been blocked, so I can only guess they coincided with your format change a little while back due to using a lot more bandwith to load a site and network (I'm no techie by any means, but the only reasons sites get blocked are either bandwith hogs/videos, OR they don't have the proper security requirements as we deal with private information).

From the lack of people that are posting here I would have to assume that others have seen the negativity from Admin and don't want to contribute (I like Kate's wet noodle comment), they are okay with the site, or there are only a few people reading the site and/or posts like this. TV is causing me to be fat and may cause future health issues according to some prior posts, maybe I should just give it up anyways, that way I won't need to read about TV anymore.

Joel and Bob,

You both seem very committed to this, and while I've made my feelings clear, I'll have to live with whatever changes you guys make.

But please consider a small suggestion from a longtime reader: moderation. The past three days have simply been overkill on the short posts. It's a perfectly acceptable idea to post viral videos - you never know what you haven't seen yet. But also keep in mind that many of your readers, including myself, read TV Squad in addition to at least 10 other blogs and websites. So many of us have found other ways to see these types of things. For most, it's Gawker, or Perez Hilton, or any other similar site.

Personally, I like to watch "The Soup" every week, where I will probably see every video you've posted since Monday. It takes away from what me and I imagine the majority of your readers come here for: consistently updated TV news, show reviews, and insightful discussion.

Bob, you don't need to post every single video that you come across or that's making the rounds any given day. Chances are we've already seen it, and if we haven't, we probably aren't interested. I appreciate the effort, but trust me, less is more. I hope you take this into consideration, I strongly believe it would satisfy the majority of your readers.

I just don't see where the comparisons of the short posts are like Tweets. I just don't. Yes, they are short, and yes, they are filler, and if I don't give a squat about what they say, guess what people I move on.

Maybe it's because TVS is the only TV site I go too. Maybe it's because I have seen the site go through several changes in the few years I have been here. Maybe I know that people like Joel actually give a damn what we think... and they put up with a lot of BS because of it.

Did Joel have to post ANYTHING about it? No. But just like other "big" changes, the staff at TVS break it down and tell you what is going on.

I like the smaller peices. I even commented on one of Bob's about Miss Cali. I NEVER would have caught that anywhere because I don't watch the Today show, and I most certainly do not cruise Hulu looking for that stuff.

Anyway... I think TVS is doing a great job, and I will be back tomorrow am to read about Grey's. :D

I'd stick around to see how things turn out, but for my opinion, I'd rather do away with the short posts. I don't bother with them anymore

New content needs to be in the form of reviews. That is why I come here. I have been wondering for months why the number of reviews have been cut. Where are the reviews for Lie to Me, Castle, Unusuals, Supernatural (best season ever), Saving Grace (amazing season as well) and more. I don't love the little posts- they are kind of annoying to me, actually- but I can live with them if they are balanced out with posts that actually have some meant. I understand that you are trying to me more "blog-like" but this isn't twitter. If I liked that, I'd follow twitter. Maybe you should just put the small posts on a twitter feed?

Add this as one more reader whose not coming here anymore. Used to love your side, addictively, three years ago. Now I'm outta here. You may still see me here for the 24 reviews for the next few weeks, but maybe not.

The AOL plugs, the annoying galleries, the US-only videos... I'm outta here.

I would be complaining too if my steak was covered with Cheetos and Pop Tarts, and I definately wouldn't pay for it. But guess what; you're not paying for TVS content either. There is an open invitation to visit this site for free and read what you want. If you don't like an article, don't read it and move on. Simple. Now if you've been kidnapped and are being forced to view every post and comment about it, give us a hint where you're being held and we'll do everything we can to get you freed. Does anyone know where Stringfellow Hawke is?

As I have said previously, and will say again...

I do get the idea of more content, as opposed to swapping out lengthy articles for short ones, but have found that I am missing things here and there, because with every publication of one of these mini-posts, the articles I may want to read are being pushed onto page 2, or even 3.

Not always remembering the review I might want to read, or completely missing the interesting articles because they're been banished due to constant posts leaves me with nothing I am interested in being present straight away - a quick scroll, all I see is mini-posts? Then I end up wandering off.

Quality vs. quantity is a fair argument, and I understand that this is not the case as you're not phasing out larger posts for smaller ones, but on a site where there is one main page, and everything disappears after time, don't get too carried away posting posting posting, because you'll loose those grabbing headlines to the nether-world of the non-front page.
