BuddyTV Gets 6 Million More

by Jeremy Schoemaker on April 14, 2008 · 22 comments

BuddyTVI saw on Techcrunch this morning that BuddyTV has raised $6 million more in series B financing. I am a big fan of BuddyTV ever since I met its CEO Andy Liu last year. This year Andy was a speaker at the Elite Retreat and I think he put together an amazing presentation.

BuddyTV was also a featured publisher of the month for AuctionAds after they had switched there advertising over last May.

My wife and I both have pretty demanding careers but we still make time to watch our favorite shows Tivo’d. After the shows I usually hit BuddyTV to see what others are saying. Especially with LOST.

By the way anyone else watch Rock Of Love? I was so happy to see Brett Choose Ambre last night in its season finale… Good job Brett!

Anyway congrats to Andy on the financing!

I don’t watch TV but I’ve been playing around on the site. Some of the features (like rate or hate celebs) can get addicting. Lot’s of fun and site flows well.
