New and improved importer with a major data update
We are happy to announce that we deployed our latest big update to our importer. We've rewritten the worker from the ground up and made it faster & much smarter. Resulting in more consistent airdates and less duplicate episodes.
During our scheduled maintenance downtime, we've run the full importer up-front. During this initial import, 189.772 episodes for a total of 5.782 tv shows were updated, including fixes to airdates, episode titles or even complete new episodes that where missing.
What is next?
We will continue improving the new importer and monitor its performance very closely during the next days/weeks. Next up, we will start going through the shows that were put in review by our importer. These are shows that have conflicting data and are in need for a manual review.
The importer is not yet fully migrated to the thetvdb.com data service. For example, new TV Shows are still not detected, this is currently a slow manual process. There is a work in progress version of a community driven contribution system which we hope to be releasing before the summer.
Final words
Lastly, I want to thank all you for sticking with us during this major transition phase to another data service! Without our loyal user base, followmy.tv wouldn't be here today.

I've noticed that the importer is still not really running for all shows. Ajin, for example, isn't even present here on followmy.tv - while it is complete in the thetvdb.com database. Hunters, is present at fmtv, but has no episodes - while it is complete in thetvdb.com database.
The sooner you guys have your own edit/add shows system, the better. Though I get that it's a pretty big update to your system and requires time.
@ForgotMyLines Yes, add Horace and Pete, pretty please.
Beyond The Tank needs updating as well.
http://followmy.tv/shows/48294/Beyond_the_Tank
Please add making a murderer on the list.
The show is available on your data source thetvdb.com
Why is this not reflecting in your list?
Just wondering if Making a Murderer will be added any time soon.
@Lemon could you add some episodes to this?:
http://followmy.tv/shows/49321/Animals
I hope that this continues to grow! Thank you and keep it up! :)

@Lemon @josbeir @SilentAlarm Seems to be an error with this show; http://followmy.tv/shows/37332/Young_Hungry
I just watched S02E16 and went to check it. When I click "Watched" nothing happens. I tried to go via bulk editing and mark it was watched from there, but then I got an error message. I think it said "Error saving" or something similar. Can you check this out? :)
Thanks for you work in these last few months. Please update Gotham!
I know there are a ton of shows that need updating, but I personally would love to see imports pushed for Idiotsitter, Not Safe with Nikki Glaser, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. Also Love on netflix...y'know with so many shows still missing updates maybe a general update blog wouldn't hurt

@Saxo I manually triggered the update for it, and it seems to not take those new episodes. I'll have to investigate this further. I'll take a look at it this weekend.
