TV Tonight turns 13
January 5th marks 13 years online and counting....

Today’s date marks 13 years of TV Tonight online.
The site now has 67,000 published posts, and nearly 500,000 comments. My continued thanks for your ongoing loyalty -many of you indicated in site surveys that you visit more than once a day.
Results of the annual TV Tonight Awards will be published this week and soon the Show of the Decade survey.
I had hoped to refresh the site design by now, but I’ll be honest, while progress was made in this area it just wasn’t the right look. So I threw it all out and am back to square one! It’s been frustrating… if anyone knows a good designer experienced with content-driven sites, hit me up via the Contact page?
Once again the past 12 months has been a who’s who of stars, CEOs, execs, writers, directors, producers & crew -and that’s not including red carpet chats.

Congratulations TVT on a wonderful site. If you haven’t read it on TVT then it isn’t true or hasn’t happened at all ! I really like the way you keep us all in line with our comments if we happen to go a bit out of line (yes I have been guilty of tapping away before thinking) which really sets you up high up on the social media calendar for me !
Best birthday wishes to you! I love this place. For thirteen years you’ve been steering me straight and providing programming updates and helpful reviews and an oasis of good news.
Congratulations David! Definitely the best TV coverage in Australia.
I’ll second that.
I’ll third it. Best site on the web (as voted by me)!!!!!!

What an achievement. I’ve been following since year 1. Congratulations
TV Tonight hits puberty. Great site, can’t believe it’s only 13 years – swear I’ve been reading it longer.
Edit to add: could you please interview Anita Hegh? I have enjoyed her work in everything I have seen her in, a very underrated actor
Oh dear, the troubled teens! Which way will TVT go? Goth? Emo? Jan Brady?
Congrats David!
Cronker wins the thread…
