Before they “upgraded” to [Yahoo! TV Beta](http://tv.yahoo.com/), my bookmark for checking TV schedules was Yahoo!'s. Nowadays, I use [TVPlanner](http://tvplanner.comcast.net/) which seems to have decent enough functionality. Then there’s [Zap2it](http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/GridAction.do) which is slightly less suitable for my tastes. The best thing about the old Yahoo! listings was that you could click on a time slot and get details of that program into the future, with other channels and times. Do you have a preferred listings site that’s like the old Yahoo! one? This is one case where I feel Yahoo! is losing the edge it used to have for me. ---

I always use [TV Guide, TV Listings, Online Videos, Entertainment News and Celebrity News - TV Guide](http://tvguide.com/listings). If you hover over a show, it will give you an episode synopis, and it pulls up a link for more program information. ---

I use [TitanTV](http://titantv.com). It was better when they had fewer ads, but it’s still quite useful. ---

Here’s a new one I just came across today… [http://couchville.com/guide/](http://couchville.com/guide/) It’s still in “BETA”, but looks to have some potential. It’s not overly glitzy (or glitchy, for that matter). Couldn’t agree more with OP regarding Yahoo! It all started with their “new” e-mail interface, and they obviously then sent in the same crew to screw over the TV Listings. Form takes precedence over substance… self-indulgent programming and coding. They seem determined to become the anti-Google.
