BuddyTV

BuddyTV is an online TV guide and discussion center. It provides original articles, news and interviews on a large range of TV content. In addition to content provided by BuddyTV, fans can conduct TV jockey broadcasts about their favorite shows. Fans can broadcast live audio, video, text and polls to the larger BuddyTV user base. If not interested in broadcasting, BuddyTV has forums in which users can discuss everything from The Simpsons to The Simple Life. BuddyTV offers a space for fans of cult and niche shows also, bringing together much smaller communities which may never have formed were it not for the ubiquity of the web.A significant investor, Gemstar’s TV Guide adds legitimacy and strength to BuddyTV. BuddyTV will now benefit from the years of experience and data brought by one of America’s most well known TV resources.MeeVee is another player in this field.
