Replacing IMDb with Callsheet

IMDb was always essential for me, but I hated both their app and their website, which seemed to just keep getting uglier and more loaded up with janky ads and auto-playing nonsense.

If you have an iPhone (or an iPad, or a Mac), this is the answer—a clean, well-designed replacement that isn’t trying to distract you or sell you anything else. It also has a ton of thoughtful little touches and features. Want to know how old the actors were when they were in a particular show or movie versus how old they are now? It shows you that. Trying to recall the name of a movie where all you remember is two actors who were in it? You can search to find every movie that those two actors were in. Want to hide potential spoilers in cast lists (when, say, the name of the character someone played is actually an important reveal in the movie or show)? It’ll do that. I’ve never hit “subscribe” on anything faster, or deleted an app faster than I deleted IMDb.

$9/year, 100% worth it.
