We’re always looking for a few good writers for the number of streaming shows alone!
But now we have even more to cover as nets like The CW are testing out a different phased rollout of originals.
Maybe your new favorite show will be covered by you!
We need more people with a passion for episodic television to share their views with their fellow fanatics.
Could you be that person?
TV Fanatic is looking for Fanatics to come on board, have fun, interact with readers and build their portfolio by doing something you already love to do:
Watch television.
Do you want to write about your favorite shows for a site that garners millions of page views per month? Now is your chance.
Does this sound like you?

Are you willing to cover gems undiscovered to you, but of interest to our readers? Web series, the best in streaming? We need you on board.

New shows get announced every day, and we want to offer the broadest coverage of reviews and editorials.
We need more voices to make that happen.
