The TV Time Alternative
TV Time shut down on July 15, 2026, and the accounts went with it. If you saved an export before the deadline, the years you spent checking off episodes are still yours, and they have a home here. Queuebrick now reads your export and rebuilds your TV life: what you finished, what you were in the middle of, what you saved for later, and the movies too.
What carries over
- Episode-by-episode history. Every watched episode lands as a check on the show's season tables, with your original watch dates kept where the export has them.
- Finished and in-progress shows. Completed shows arrive marked watched, dated to the day you finished. Mid-way and saved-for-later shows land in your queue to pick back up.
- Favorites. Hearts stay hearts.
- Movies. TV Time tracked films too: watch dates land in your diary, want-to-watch in your list.
Special episodes stay behind on purpose: catalogs number them differently, and a wrong guess would mark things you never watched. Anything already tracked here is kept. Imports never overwrite.
Which files work
Both kinds of TV Time export work, exactly as you have them. The official GDPR zip from the old data-request portal can be dropped in whole. The series and movies JSON files from the "TV Time Out" browser extension work too, including copies already realigned to TMDB by community fix tools, whose ids the import honors directly. Files are read in your browser; only the matched titles reach your library.
If you didn't export in time
Then the honest answer is that the history is gone, and no app can get it back. Starting over is lighter than it sounds: add the shows you're watching now, queue the ones you keep meaning to start, and the shelf fills back up in an evening.
What you're moving into
Queuebrick is a fast, quiet place to keep your film and TV life: search anything, queue what you want to watch, check off seasons as you go, and rank your favorites. Free, no ads, on the web and on iPhone. Your data stays yours: everything you import can be exported back out any time.
