We live in a golden age of television. There has never been more quality programming to watch, and as TV viewers, we commit to our favorite shows. We all know the feeling of excitement of waiting for new episodes to air, to see what will happen to the characters each week. We also know that missing a new episode can be frustrating as it is often challenging to avoid spoilers immediately posted online and on social media. 

However, thanks to the convenience of technology it's never been easier to tune in whenever and where ever we want. Most channels now have mobile apps that allow viewers to watch the latest episodes of their favorite shows on-the-go, and many apps also allow for catch up of previous episodes and maybe even entire seasons as well.  

Some apps, however, are filled with even more cool features. We have compiled a list of current TV apps that not only have the latest episodes of your favorite shows, but additional features to provide even more enjoyment.
