How to Add TV Show Release Dates to Google Calendar

Google Calendar is great for meetings, but it's even better when it tracks your entertainment schedule.

Here is how to sync TV show air dates to your Google Calendar using tvcal.

Step 1: Get Your Feed URL

  1. Go to tvcal.app and sign in.
  2. Search for shows and add them to your watchlist.
  3. Click the Add to Calendar button on the dashboard.
  4. Select "Google Calendar" or copy the raw iCal URL.

Step 2: Subscribe in Google Calendar

If the button didn't open Google Calendar automatically:

  1. Open calendar.google.com on your computer (it's easier than mobile).
  2. On the left sidebar, find "Other calendars" and click the + icon.
  3. Select From URL.
  4. Paste your tvcal URL and click Add calendar.
⚠️ Common Mistake

Do not "Import" the file. Importing only adds current events and will not update when new episodes are announced. Always use "From URL" to subscribe.

Done! Your TV shows will now appear as a separate calendar layer. You can toggle it on/off or change its color anytime.

Never miss an episode again

Start tracking your favorite shows and sync them to your calendar today.
