With so much television content available at the click of a button, it can be difficult to keep track of the latest TV series. As a serial series watcher, keeping track of air dates for over 70 series can be a gruelling task. My saviour has been the TVShow Time app.
By building a profile on TVShow Time you can create a catalogue of your entire TV library. It’s also a very good platform to find new TV shows to watch. Whenever someone asks me what TV shows I have seen a slight rush of panic hits me as I cannot just list 70 TV shows off the top of my head without sounding a little bit weird! So, I just whip out my phone, open the app and let people scroll through my profile.
The app has many other fantastic features and attributes:
1. Tracking – TVShow Time’s most useful feature is the watchlist page. Users add a selection of TV shows they enjoy and are then provided with a list of episodes they have remaining to watch. Through the app I have set up notifications for new episodes to be sent a day before they have aired. This is to prepare myself for spoilers on all social media sites.
2. Community – Once you have watched a highly anticipated episode or binge-watched an entire series and you don’t know who to discuss your emotions with the community on this app are there to help. Communities are built around each TV show with members commenting and sharing memes surrounding the events of the episode. For a series like Westworld (2016) this space was particularly helpful in discussing and debating the theories based upon the events that occur within the mystery sci-fi drama.
3. Statistics – Through the voting of your favourite characters and most felt emotion you can collect badges alongside marathoning a series. Scoreboards are created of your favourite characters across all the TV shows you watch. There are various charts and graphs providing the numbers on your consumption habits. The most shocking statistic for me was my total time spent watching TV, which stands at 4 months, 15 days and 2 hours!
I hope I have encouraged you to organise your TV binge-watching habits, and let me know if you find this post helpful. Create an account yourself, follow me and join a huge community on a social network entirely dedicated to all things TV.
The TVShow Time app is available for Apple and Android devices, and to all as a website.
Wow I never knew such an app existed! This made my life as a TV enthusiast so much easier – Thank you and keep up the posts!! 🙂
It’s the best thing, I used to write everything on the Notes app on my phone and it took so long.
these apps are a lifesaver and this one looks amazing. gonna go download it right now
They are so convenient and this one is just so much better than a checklist because of all the other features like the statistics and badges.
this is honestly one of the most helpful things i’ve ever seen! i’m definitely going to download this!!
Yay! It makes watching TV shows seem so productive when you check it off a list.
This sounds awesome! It sucks when not many of my friends watch the same shows I do so the Community feature sounds great. I look forward to checking it out, thanks!
No problem! Hope you enjoy the app as much as I do.
Hey, I nominated you for a mystery blogger award, check out the instructions here : https://flickbox.wordpress.com/2017/01/27/mistery-blogger-award/. 🙂
Thank you so much for nominating me! I will upload a post about it very soon.
This app sounds so useful I know this is a TV blog but do you know if there is a similar one for movies?
There is one similar but it does not have as many aspects as TVShow Time. It’s called Letterboxd, it lets you log your films, leave reviews and create lists. Hope this is helpful!
The amount of time I have spent watching shows is disgraceful lol
Same! As the time spent watching gets higher the more I reconsider watching more shows, but then something good comes out and I have to watch it.
Your time saving tips – and ways to find other people who’ve watched the whole show – are clearly very popular. Let’s have more of them! Nicola http://www.islingtonfacesblog.com
Where has this been all my life!
I honestly don’t know how I used to manage without this app, it has definitely saved me so much time.
