Congrats on putting something together, hope you had fun doing it. What are your next steps for this project? Mine would be to polish the frontend design. I'm not sure of your comfort level with frontend design, but as a programmer with no design skills I usually look to https://dribbble.com/ for inspiration or use Twitter Bootstrap. good luck


Looks pretty good. I've been using http://www.airdates.tv/ for this stuff. One suggestion would be to add more service providers like Google Play Movies and Vudu.


I use wikipedia for this: List_of_Your_Favourite_Show_episodes always works:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mad_men_episodes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_South_Park_episodes

and there are usually links to individual episodes pages.


Check the Amazon TOS if you're doing this for the $$'s.

You have ThePirateBay links next to the Amazon links which they may frown upon for no good reason.


Very nice. Do you have a NetFlix API key or have you used some other source of info for them?


On the home page, where it lists all recent aired episodes, would be nice to show the "Available On" related to that episode only. Many series aren't up-to-date on those services, which is sad.


Individual episodes have links to Pirate Bay


Nice!

Two questions:

1. What stack are you working on?

2. How does the "instant" search thing work?
