For those of you who like to keep track of when TV shows air in the US, the above app is a great way to do this.

I use the widget of this application on my Mac and I previously used the Web App on my iPhone to keep track of when the newest episodes of my favourite US TV shows were airing (for obvious reasons).

Here is the link to the developers website to learn more: Big Bucket

Seems like a good idea, hate getting my hopes up ready to download a torrent then finding out it wasnt screened in the US this week. Not too sure it'd be worth more than first tier pricing though, given what some of the other apps are selling for.

Check out their website as they have a free widget for your Mac and free web app for the iPhone. I've used both of these for free for a while so I thought it was only fitting to give the developer some extra cash.

Yeh I will.
If I wasnt such a tight arse I'm sure I would have bought it

Congrats on a great idea developer.

Oh wow, thanks for the headsup! I'm a TV junkie and this app is awesome! Never heard of it before but gave it a try anyways and it's totally worth it. For me, it's the most useful app since I'm originally from North America so I still follow the shows back home religiously. They also have a pretty good listing for some Australian shows, not bad! Some shows still need updating though (in terms of date, episode summary, and thumbnail) but overall, it meets all my needs.

Thanks again for telling me about this, I'm so happy (yes, a little sad to be so excited over a tv show app...)

I've spoken to the developer and he assures me that 1.1 will fix alot of those issues. Throughout their testing they were using TV.com for their info but the other day TV.com redesigned their site and now the developer is using TVrage.com. He said that in the next few days they will be switching back to TV.com. Version 1.1 will also have timezone support which will fix up the issue with the days as we in Australia are a day ahead timezone wise.

Another cool feature is when you click on a TV show and turn the iPhone on it's side it does a countdown in days, hours, minutes and seconds til the show airs.

Yes and it is a little bit sad to be so excited about a TV show app.
