Now is probably the time for me to admit I have terrible TV taste. Think of the worst show ever, and I've probably watched it...and fallen in love with the horror of it all. While I'm a TiVo freak - mostly so I don't have to bother anyone else with my terrible taste - I know there are many of you who rely on good old fashioned "what's on tonight?" logic and daily "What To Tivo" reminders from BuzzSugar. In case those methods aren't enough (or if, like me, your taste is so bad no one else wants to tune in), there's always the TV Countdown, which let's you know exactly when the next episode of your favorite TV show is going to air.

Apparently, TV Countdown, which was designed for macs, will automatically adjust the countdown timer to Eastern Time so that no matter where you are - as soon as an episode goes to air, you’ll know about it. I see this as a great addition to TiVo, or regular real-time TV viewing. I mean, who knew Undressed was still in the MTV lineup. If you're a PC user and want a similar download, read more

I haven't found a free TV Countdown option for PCs, but if you're a Heroes fan, you can download a fun, Countdown to the Return widget. It works for PC and Mac.
