Welcome TV Daily

Look for more new features in the weeks to come.

Topics:

When we discontinued the Fix, one complaint from readers was the most common: They missed the daily roster of TV talk-show guests. So I said we’d bring it back in another form. Today we rolled out TV Daily, which will make recommendations for can’t-miss television every day, and also bring you the day’s talk-show schedule.

We’ll be rolling out more culture features soon, along with two expanded politics sites and enhanced science and environment coverage. We’re beefing up Video Dog as promised; look for more in the weeks to come.

And have no fear: Heather Havrilesky will continue to do “I Like to Watch” on the weekends as well.

Let us know what you think.
