[Blog History]

   Chess.com/TV has outdone itself this time! Over the next few months some new and exciting programming is coming your way, and most of them are open to ALL members! Not only is Chess.com/TV covering almost every round of the current 2013 Candidates Tournament, but new shows have been added to the lineup as well.

  The new show Melik and Me, had its World Premiere last night, hosted by GM Melik Khachiyan and Brother Josh (Danny Rensch's brother, who has claimed his stake as a regular broadcaster on Chess.com/TV!).

   The 12th Deathmatch hits our screens on March 30th with two GMs duking it out: Alexander Ipatov and Mark Arnold.

   Then, on March 31st, there will be a very special "Q & A" show with none other than the greatest women's chess player ever--Judit Polgar! That show will be hosted by IM Danny Rensch.

   There's all that, PLUS our regular programming still steady and strong as well: the Blind Simuls with GM Timur Gareev, Your Games Analyzed, Q & A with NM Dan Heisman. So, there's a lot of great scheduling coming up you don't want to miss. Be ready and mark your calendars! Here's the full schedule:

   I am now once again doing my chess journalism on Chess.com, following news, events, announcements, etc. I'm not going to let a couple of idiotic people chase me away from what I love to do. If I get any bad comments, they will be deleted right away.
