On June 15th, 2005, the domain name "TVRage.com" was registered. Four (4) months later, on October 26th, 2005 the site went live. As months passed on TVRage became more and more popular, and on March 14th, 2006 the Webmaster (Sebrioth) announced he would be recoding the entire site from scratch in order to ensure it would have the the best future possible. On April 10th, 2006 production began, and the new TVRage was expected to be online by April 31st, 2006. Unfortunately, due to a few complications out of the Webmaster's hands, the relaunch was delayed many times. Finally, on October 8th, 2006 the new site went online.
