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.

Jeeeeeeeij!
@John81 I did the same, i migrated my info over, and sat and waited for followmy to get their shit together lol.
im glad they were able to get everything working again :)
It was well worth the wait. Thank You. I have to admit tho, I did use the maze migration tool. Never actually used the site, but I was this close to give up on You. Im happy I waited.
Thank god you're back! And I look forward to helping crowd source episode information so you and we aren't at the whims of external sites.
THANKS!!
So glad you're back! Sorry I couldn't make a bigger donation, really appreciate all the work you put into this website :)
you guys rock!
Thank youuu, goddamnit I was so mad but I love you, please make this work, I am so glad I don't have to leave, that was torture
I'm working on a feature that will make it easier to report TV shows that are not yet connected to thetvdb.com.
@Lemon Is this site going to add the new episodes of WWE Raw and WWE Smackdown? TheTVDB.com doesn't seem to have them.
Amazing work! Finally I can get control of my TV Series again :P
@Lemon Thuis en Voetbal Inside ook nog niet geüpdatet.
IT'S BACK BABY
@Lemon I sent you an email to the address you gave me, but it says it can't be delivered so I'll put it here:
