Have your TV Time export? Bring it back here

TV Time shut down on July 15, 2026 and deleted every account. If you saved your data export (the ZIP from gdpr.tvtime.com) before then, you can bring it all back in one tap below. Didn't export in time? No problem — start fresh and rebuild your list in about two minutes.

How Help Me Binge compares to other TV Time alternatives

There are several TV Time replacements. Here's an honest look at what each brings over and what it costs. (Details change — verify current specifics on each site.)

Not the right fit? TVmaze, Trakt, Simkl, Serializd and JustWatch are all solid options and also import TV Time data. We think the free, no-download, movies-and-sports-included combination is the friendliest place to land — but the important thing is that you move your data somewhere before July 15.

What you get with Help Me Binge

Pick up right where you left off. Every show remembers your exact place, so you never rewatch or lose the thread. "Caught up" shows sit in their own bucket, separate from what you're actively bingeing.

Shows, movies, and sports in one place. Track TV across every service, log movies, and follow your teams' upcoming games and channels — something no other tracker does.

Reasons to come back. A weekly "what's new on your list" email, a shareable Binge Wrapped recap, streaks, a spoiler-safe mode, and a couples "decide for us" pick-tonight swipe.

It's yours. Export your data anytime. We won't do to you what TV Time did.
