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
A lot of shows are messed up again. Comes to my mind: Gotham, Arrow, The Flash, Modern Family. What's wrong?
Gotham needs to be updated, there was an episode on TV last night that doesn't show up at all on Followmy.TV.
pretty messed up once again...

Do you have the link to connect my followmy.tv shows to the Tvmaze-site? I can't find it anymore.
Still no "TFI Friday" updates.
Still no "Jamie's Super Food" updates.
Still no "The Hunt" mini series.
No "Match of the day" updates.
No "Football Focus" updates
Still no detective series "Unforgotten" added.
Please add "Hugh's War On Waste" (2 part series)
Please add detective series "River"
"Doctor Foster" only has 3 episodes added, there were 5 episodes in Series 1.
Its still pretty much messed up. Shows in calendar on days when they are not airing and vice versa. I think I will stick to TV Maze until its sorted out, as I need a reliable source of information, and FMTV has not been that for a while now. Just my constructive feedback.
Arrow, AHS didn't have an episode on last night.
Please change the name of You, me and the end of the world into You, me and the Apocalypse
Lots of shows missing airdates, even though there are dates on thetvdb ... :)
Also The Muppets didn't have an episode on last night but Followmy.TV says it did.
there's no flash, agents of shield, arrow... this week, but the site says it aired?
Yeah, lot's of shows has just "TBD" as episode names, and no airdates, even though there are episode names and dates on thetvdb ...
"Family Guy" episode dates and names do not match what is shown on tvdb.com: http://thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seriesid=75978&seasonid=627041&lid=7
