DAMMIT!!! What's a good online source for tv listings?
I can never find anything. I'm trying to find out if Face The Nation will be on again today. Going to the Face The Nation website and TV Guide has only succeeded in pissing me off.

1. Yahoo isn't half bad
It seems reasonably accurate and not a lot of ads get in your way.

4. I like Yahoo, too
set up a 'My Yahoo' page that lists the stations available to you, with your own time zone listings. Easy search for a specific show, too.

Not that I always remember to LOOK there, mind you, but at least if I miss something, I have no one to blame but myself (which sucks).

3. Yup, tvguide
Click on a show you want to see, and you can see other times it will be on as well.

5. I use TitanTV.com .
If you have a high definition TV or use digital cable, it breaks down the TV listing into all the different formats. Pretty cool.

7. yahoo is the pits anymore
I am sick of them because when you click on the link for more info about the program, you more often than not get nothing, a yahoo version of "page not found." On top of that there are times when they don't have the listing so you have to go elsewhere.

I want a source that has them all on one page like Yahoo does--but that is reliable.

NY Times has a great listing (zap2it) but unfortunately you have to click several pages to get all the channels. Still, the descriptions are thorough and there is lots of color, logos, etc.

8. titan
thanks for the info on titan, EOTE; I checked it and it seems to meet my requirements. The popup is better for more info on the program than a separate page, like yahoo has.
