Hey, because no one has said it yet this week…I appreciate you! (I was seriously lost without you, couldn’t find any other site comparable!) ðŸ˜
Thanks this is one of my favorite sites for tv info.
Fyi The Season Premiere of The Expanse starts Wednesday at Midnight not Tuesday. Love your site
Hi. Yes, but shows that start at anytime around 12 or 12:30am go on the night before’s schedule, since most of those airings are still on the previous night. 🙂
Thank you for this information – I really appreciate it! I look at your site every week!
Jenny do you have a Patreon page or someway that I can send you a donation?
Thank you for the thought! 🙂 No Patreon. I can do Paypal or Google Pay (which I prefer, but either works).
What is your PayPal address? Would love to thank you for your hard work.
I don’t have my own Paypal account. I use my best friend’s. I don’t want to post her email here publicly, so if you would email me at jenrar@gmail.com I’ll let you know. 🙂 Thank you! Or you can use my email for Google Pay. Whichever.
