Another possibility is Reddit. Very Usenet-like experience in terms of
reading speed, and threaded discussions, but with easy-to-use
hyperlinking and in-line images. Pretty extensive moderation ability
by a subreddit's moderators, too. The overall experience is about 100X
more pleasant than *any* forum software I know of, or for that matter
the various blog-commenting backends like Disqus, Wordpress, and
Facebook.

http://www.reddit.com/r/mythtv already exists, but is very
underused. If its creator is willing to turn it over, it could become
the "official" MythTV forum. Or, another subreddit could be created to
serve that purpose, and if /r/mythtv becomes available later one could
auto-redirect to the other.
