Awards

This is a category for award presentation programs (or ceremonies) on cable and network television, such as the Emmy Awards, the Cable Ace Awards, and other programs of that nature.

The fact that your website or you personally have received some sort of award is not a valid reason for submitting it here. This also applies to any sites for award-winning individuals (actors, directors, producers, writers, etc.), TV shows (including programs and movies), production companies, and studios.

Chats and Forums

Please submit only sites primarily featuring chat rooms, mailing lists, message boards or other means of discussing television topics and/or shows. Forums dedicated to the discussion of a single show should not be submitted to this category - please submit them instead to the show's subcategory under Arts/Television/Programs.
Chat rooms, mailing lists, message boards or other means of discussing a variety of television topics and/or shows.

Closed Captioning

Please submit only sites with content related to closed captioning for television, as opposed to captioning for Internet media, DVDs, or theatrical films.
Closed captioning is the process of adding textual information to programs to make them accessible to individuals who can't hear or translate the audio portion. Most closed captioning services are available only to viewers who subscribe to them, which is why they're called "closed."

Commercials

Primarily sites about television commercials, advertising characters from television commercials, fan sites for specific TV campaigns, and collections of audio / video commercial clips.

Episode Guides

This category is for sites that include episode guides for more than one television show. An episode guide for a single show should be submitted to the appropriate subcategory of Arts: Television: Programs.
Episode guides provide titles and plot summaries for segments of television programs, and may provide additional information about individual episodes, such as airdates and guest stars.

History

From its origins in experiments with mechanical rotating discs to its modern takeover of the world, television has been considered to be many things, but never uninteresting.

Sites listed in this category are dedicated to the history of television, presentation, programmes and the technical achievements of the medium.

Infomercials

Please do not submit affiliate sites. The types of web pages accepted to this category are as follows:

Sites with content focused on sales of satellite television dishes, receivers, and systems, as well as related parts, hardware, software, accessories, and/or services, including repair, installation and programming or reprogramming, should be submitted to Shopping/Consumer_Electronics/Digital_Satellite.

Stations

Sites for Internet television stations should go in http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Broadcasting/Video_Shows.

Official sites for broadcast television stations.

Theme Songs

Please only submit sites to this category that are mainly 'theme song oriented'.

For example: A site with a collection of downloadable theme songs, or lyrics would be suitable for submission. Whereas, a page about Knight Rider, containing only it's theme would not be suitable. A much better category for that would be: /Arts/Television/Programs/Science_Fiction/Knight_Rider/

Almost every television show has one. In fact, some have more than one! Here is where we pay homage to those catchy little tunes and lyrics that you find yourself humming all day long.

Trading

Please submit only sites primarily devoted to trading recordings of more than one television program. Sites dedicated to trading recordings of a single program should be submitted to the program's subcategory under Arts/Television/Programs.

Sites where tapes and discs are sold for profit should be submitted to Shopping/Entertainment/Recordings/Video.

Sites that facilitate exchanging recordings of series or episodes, either on tape or computer disc. Traders usually are fans of the show who exchange copies to complete their own collection, rather than selling them for profit.

Video Production

If your site is for a video production company, please submit it to Business/Arts and Entertainment/Media Production/Video or Business/Business Services/AudioVisual/Production/Video and Film.
This category covers all aspects of professional, broadcast video production.
