smart websites about TV?

March 10, 2019 12:40 PM

Looking for website with smart writing/discussion about TV shows. Also looking for a website that has information about when seasons end and begin; basically "news" and schedules about TV. Could be two different sites but would be nice to be one.

I like FanFare, but it doesn't have every show and doesn't have schedule information (right?)

I found TVline which seems okay... any other recommendations?

For the airing dates, I use epguides.com. It doesn't give much of an explanation, so I go to either futon critic or wikipedia to read a better description of the series. Both are linked from the epguide page.

I really like Vulture. I used to read AV Club all the time but I feel like the quality has gone down over time, and Vulture scractes the same itch it used to. I usually only read the reviews and occasionally the news bits, though, so I'm not sure about the other aspect of your question.

You might like the industry site TV Tattle, which posts links and round-ups of smart TV writing and of cancellation/return date news.

For the latter (schedules), Tello.tv is actually pretty cool, you pick the shows you want to watch and it creates a live schedule.
