This year my Forsythia had the most blooms in the over 12 years I've lived
here. When I moved here this bush was already over 10 years old so its
old. I've been struggling taming this bush for the last 7 years and last
year I got so frustrated with it I almost chopped the entire bush down.
Then I went to google to figure out how to prune it. Paghat's site was in
the first page of links when I used "pruning forsythia" as keywords. I
learned to just let the bush be and do nothing. This spring it has the
most flowers I have ever seen. Here's a pic:

Congrats! You should see the one's in my neighborhood!
I have burning bushes instead.
