The layout is pretty eye-catching, but more pictures spread around would be good. One technical item; I'm using an outdated browser (IE5; no choice in the matter) on a work computer. Some of the inner pages, such as the cast page, truncate vertically. I've got Google ads in Shermer's bio, and nothing but Dunning's name and picture. The "Your turn" page also cuts off.

We need to show a united front to get this project on the air. Even you crazy believers. Tell them you hate the idea so much that you will watch it every week as a sado-masochistic exercise.

The width is there to allow people with lower rez monitors not to have to scroll left and right. I'll look into the contrast for the text. @Brian, Just FYI, JS-Kit was just the comment box code. I did the rest with iWeb, and tweaked it a bunch. Thanks guys! @Mark; Taurus, Ha ha Me too!

Some comments: 1) The (title) TV SERIES(/title) is not terribly informative. This affects the name in my browser tab and for any bookmark, and perhaps in search results. 2) Personally, I don't like the narrow width that is used for the page. 3) For the visually challenged some of the text/background choices do not help.
