ABOUT TVparty:

After many years in Los Angeles working in the entertainment industry (television and motion pictures), Billy Ingram returned to his hometown in North Carolina to do some writing. He created a website (Homeroom) in 1994 to get some sense of what kind of book the public might respond to.

The TVparty section of Homeroom started getting national press almost immediately. In early 1997, TVparty.com was born. Together with the contributions of people far and wide, Ingram has made TVparty the internet's premiere television history website, a celebration of man's electronic achievement.

TVparty.com has been featured on CNBC, CNN, and in major newspapers all over the country including the Houston Chronicle, Newsday, San Jose Mercury News, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, The Hollywood Reporter, and in nationally syndicated columns.

Web Magazine gave TVparty a 5 out of 5, Entertainment Weekly gave us an A+, Yahoo magazine listed it as one of the 100 best of 2001, and the Village Voice called TVparty the "Best of the Net". Billy Ingram has also appeared as a guest on "The Steve and Johnnie Show" (WGN in Chicago), 98.7thepoint, 1047 in Charlotte, WABC's Rocky Allen Morning Program, The Murphy in the Morning Show in Greensboro, NC and the nationally syndicated Wild Web TV show among others.

TVparty was the first to bring the TV experience to the internet! Millions of people enjoy TVparty each year, we get over 350,000 visits a month. In October, 2002, the first TVparty book and CD-ROM package was unleashed on an unsuspecting public.

Billy sez: "I'm extremely grateful to everyone who has been supportive, especially to those of you who have added your wonderful memories and contributed articles, pictures and rare video footage to the site. Enjoy your TVparty website!"
