Heyy, I’ve been watching too many shows across different streams, some air their episodes weekly while a few have their seasons coming in the next few months. It’s nuts trying to memorise what realeases when. How do you guys keep a track of this?
A lot of shows, I just wait until the full season is out and then watch it over however many days it takes.

Yea that’s another thing I realised. I like watching the whole season versus just an episode weekly. Feels like breadcrumbs haha

You can filter the shows you want to follow.

Create an account, mark a show and it tells you when new episodes come out.

used to have this exact problem when i was juggling like 8 different shows across netflix hulu and whatever else
ended up just making a simple spreadsheet with show name, platform, current episode, and next air date. takes maybe 5 minutes to update each week and way more reliable than trying to remember everything. some of those streaming apps are terrible at actually telling you when new stuff drops

After trying a few of the others, I have used [**https://simkl.com/**](https://simkl.com/) for a few years now. You tell it what shows you want to follow and it keeps track of them all.

Notebook (actual notebook, not a website or app called notebook) and epguides.
Every time this comes up, I always shout out myepisodes.com. You get a full-month calendar, with the name of the shows on your watchlist appearing on each day, with episode titles and airtimes when you hover over them (a little trickier to do that on mobile, but you typically know the airtime anyway). You can also adjust the url to go back to any month of time in the past to see what was airing on a certain day.
It's looked the exact same for the 15+ years I've had it, no bells and whistles or images clogging up the page, zero ads. There's even an episode checklist on each show's page if you want to use it.
I have no idea why I never see it mentioned, it just seems like the most convenient, easy-to-use site I've come across. I suppose the only downside is there's not really an Explore feature to discover new things, you just have to look up the show and add it manually, but I learn about new stuff from news sites or wikipedia anyway.
Here's what it looks like (they always have a few random shows on the calendar when you're viewing it while not logged in, and they seem to change every time I see it: https://www.myepisodes.com/cal/)

Well, the service I use just automatically tells me if a new episode for something I've already watched, even if its been a long time. Like even between seasons, once the new season starts the first episode of that season shows up on my "watch next" feed.
Now, Idk if any of the official streaming services do that, I don't use any of those.
Also, Netflix dropping entire seasons in 1 day for years in a row kind of ruined me in terms of waiting in between episodes. So I tend to just wait until the entire season is done and then binge it, rather than watching it as it airs.

i calculate how much it will impact my life to miss when an episode comes out, and then i spend that much time tracking shows.. 0x0 = 0.
