TV Fanatic is looking for a handful of Fanatics to come on board, have fun, interact with readers and build their portfolio by doing something you already love to do:
Watch television.
Do you want to write about your favorite shows for a site that garners millions of page views per month? This is your chance.
Does this sound like you?
-
Do your friends and family consider your knowledge of television more of an obsession than a pastime, while you assure them you're going to make something of all your insight and understanding? Make our home, your home!
-
If you're not actively watching TV, are you engaging others in conversation about it? You can get it all off your chest by writing for a broad audience right here.
-
Is your social media stream filled with writers, directors, networks, and other entertainment types because you need to understand them and want them to know what you think? If you write for us, we'll share your work on our social sites with our million-plus followers and give you the credit you deserve.
-
Do you look at the critics featured on network advertising and wish you could see your quote highlighted? If you write for us, it could happen to you.
-
Are you willing to cover gems undiscovered to you, but of interest to our readers? Web series, the best in streaming? We need you on board.
- Are you always making lists of the best and worst of television? Do you love reminding others why to revisit seminal moments in TV history? Are you dying to relive a show from yesterday or talk about tomorrow's TV? Reviews, slideshows, editorials, "second take" reviews, previews, promos and so much more all are open to you.
