The new data importer has been deployed
Dear Amazing Loyal Users,
I'm happy to announce that we just deployed an update to the website. We've deployed our new data importer which is using thetvdb.com as a datasource instead of the dead tvrage.com. This is a limited implementation and we did not move the full importer feature set to thetvdb because their API has some limitations.
Going forward, we realized that we no longer want to rely on an external API source for our data. We always thought "We are going to do our own data once our community is big enough
", and I believe we are close to that minimum community size.
With that in mind, we are shifting our effort in for the new version towards community tools for open sourcing the entire data set of followmy.tv. In the future we will combine the awesomeness that is our users, and develop our own data without an external API.
As usual, since we just deployed experimental code to production, feel free to email us if you encounter any strange data related bugs.

@Lemon well this site has the best UI so I will probably return :-) I can report bugs if I'll find some...
Could you update The Frankenstein Chronicles? It aired yesterday.
@Lemon hi, can you please check this show Running Man (๋ฐ๋๋งจ), the episodes are not updated, your help is very much appreciated, many thanks! :)
@Lemon Lovely. Will those shows be updated regularly now, or will you have to update them manually each week? :)

http://followmy.tv/shows/31103/Furusato_Saisei_Nippon_no_Mukashi_Banashi
i s missing a lot of episodes (not updated since almost 2 years in followmytv but on thetvdb it has all the episodes).
@microkid Those shows have been updated now. Thanks for reporting!
@cariatide Done
@Lemon London Spy needs to be updated http://followmy.tv/shows/45649/London_Spy
Thanks! :)
@lightbrand I'm sorry to see you go, we are working hard on fixing all the shows.
@Joss The anime's are a known issue because of how the seasons are structured, this is one of things on the list to fix properly.
@rist nope.. the whole show is missing. The images and link to -thetvdb- are for "the librarians (2007)" and not 2014. The show "The librarians (2014)" has every episode of season 2 in -thetvdb- page but it is not connected with this site
Edit: Thank you for fixing it
"Dama til" need updating.
Thetvdb id: 256585 :)
