I just built this this weekend after a conversation I had on friday with my dad. We were both complaining about the fact that it's still a hassle to get your updates for tv shows. Even though there's awesome apps for android like SeriesGuide, this still makes you do the whole download process manually.

Some looking into the chrome extensions api and about 160 lines of javascript later the result already works and is awesome :)

Excellent work! If you feel like adding an extra feature, I would love a link to the 720p version of each episode.

You might want to look into using something like TVTorrents and a an RSS feed with your favorite shows..

I really love it. Just one minor suggestion, when the list of episodes requires a scroll (eg. Castle), the back and remove from favorites button should still be present at he bottom without a need to scroll.

Just released v0.61, refactored with klass.js and icanhaz.js to something much more manageable. Also now it finally shows the next airdates on your shows!

Last week I had a nice testcase where al the TPB mirrors were down, that allowed me to implement automatic alternate mirror search. With that, I think this tool is now just as resilient as TPB itself :)

Nice design, but: 0 results for "misfits" :)
