Contact Amazon’s CEO Jeff Bezos ([email protected]) (owner of IMDB) and demand that the IMDB Message Boards remain open, or you will never buy from amazon.com again, and won't visit IMDB again. If you don't visit IMDB anymore, you won't see its advertising.
IMDB got rid of the Daily Poll, similarly directing everyone to Facebook, which most ignored. The Daily Poll was brought back to the front page after angry members continued to demand it for a few years.
Please boycott amazon.com and IMDB after Feb 20, 2017.

A substitute for the IMDB Message Boards – they are now trying to be able to duplicate the IMDB message boards, allowing discussion for individual films:
https://www.themoviedb.org/
Forums are here:

How to find discussion of individual films. (They don't have this yet for TV):

Another substitute for the IMDB Message Boards:
Someone picked this up on the Classic Film Board:
http://imdb2.freeforums.net/
Its creator calls it a clone of IMDB message boards.
Another movie/TV discussion site, created in 2015 to block trolls:
http://trollfightersoasis.createaforum.com/index.php
Someone else suggested to “create an account on
www.movieforums.com
It's like IMDb, but less big. Same purpose though!”
I looked at it, and it didn't seem to have a useful Search function.
themoviedb.org actually DOES have discussion boards for individual tv shows.
