When I was growing up, it seemed like t.v. shows ran all new episodes from September to May. These days, however, it seems like you can’t go an month without having a rerun. I’m a Law and Order SVU fan and for a couple weeks in a row, in February and March there were reruns…and its only March? There should be 3 more months of new shows!

If you’re like me and get upset when you sit down to watch your favorite show only to discover you just saw it a few weeks back, you can now use Rerun Check to find out if your show will be a new episode or a rerun. You can even request an email or subscribe to the RSS fees to you can be notified whenever a new episode is going to run.
