CSV export: a TV tracker you can leave

If the next owner pivots, you should still have show, season, episode, and status in a file other tools can read.

Export any time. Prefer CSV over screenshots. That is the lesson from 15 July 2026.

Minimum columns

Title, season, episode, watched status. Ids help. Everything else is optional.

Do it before you need it

People who exported before TV Time closed still have a map. People who did not are reconstructing from memory.

Frequently asked questions

What format do you emit?

A structured export other trackers can parse — not a proprietary lock.

How often should I export?

After a big import, and on a calendar. Once a quarter is enough if you also keep the live list.
