FYI, Tribune Media (aka TMS, the company that owns zap2it) is the *only*
source of episode guide data in the US other than the stations
themselves.  They have an exclusive license to all of it (even if a
large chunk of the descriptions are incorrect).  Everyone else providing
listings is just buying it from TMS.
