Comments Restored
Although 99% of visitors of 'Televisionista' do not post comments on the blog, for those of you who do, here is a quick notice on the change in settings which I have decided upon due to a recent spam attack.
I initially disabled comments from anonymous posters, meaning you would have to have a Google or Blogger account in order to post a comment.
Since this change in settings would also negatively impact comments with constructive input, I reconsidered that and ultimately decided to moderate comments.
That means you are still welcome to post comments, but they will no longer be published instantly - all comments will await mine or other blog administrator's approval.
In other words, instead of having to track down advertising of pharmaceuticals or comments containing vulgar language, racial or homophobic slurs and other hate speech, I can simply reject them prior to publishing.
Please take into account, Televisionista is practically a fansite for all the TV shows it covers. Although constructive criticism is encouraged, repetitive malicious comments will not be welcome.
Although most of the visitors prefer to simply enjoy the content without leaving any comments, I hope those of you who do will understand the reasons behind my decision.
Thanks again for being here and have a great day! :)

Wait.. You have your own staff?
Staff? I wish... :) No, but there is my darling Valium Darling to help out a bit. And of course occasional tech maintenance. No staff though. Yet. :)
Well sorry if you took offense to my comments. I'll try to ignore any biased posts from you from on.
So what's with the Betty picture anyway? Interesting choice to use.
I personally would like to check out Justin's...ahem... "staff"...LOL
Keep up the great work Justin, just know that 99% of us appreciate and love your blog even if some rotten apples try to spoil the bushel!
Go Betty!
Proud Member of the Delicious and Juicy Apple Club Right Here!
Just out of curiosity, how do you check the number of hits for your blog? Just curious.
Thank you, Roland, you naughty boy! ;)
Yes, I would greatly appreciate if you refrained from commenting on the posts you consider 'biased,' JJ.
I have two programs installed in the HTML code of the blog that track the number of unique visitors and pageviews along with other data such as referring URL, geographic location, type of operating system, IP address, time spent, entry and exit page, etc.
Interesting, I should install some of that on my sites.
And I don't consider anything something it isn't. GBY! :D

I assumed you did this all yourself but didn't know for sure. I would be on your staff anytime as well.
I have grown to love checking this blog every day.
I'm happy to hear that. Thanks, Free_paris! :)
I never knew you needed staff for a blog. Your own forums, now that I get.
If you want to update the blog more than 10 times per day every day including weekends, or cover topics you personally know little about, or cover topics that require extensive research or other time-consuming activities, or own several blogs, or have someone in charge of ad sales, now that's when you absolutely need staff. Of course, only if your business is healthy enough to allow for that.
Just wanted to say HOORAY about the comments coming back ... they were missed!
