Is there a free API for TV listings

from the self-post dept.

Anyone know of a free API for TV listings or a way to use TV listings in an app without violating anyones copyright etc. From what I understand Tribune Media controls most of it and its pretty costly. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks for that. Mainly looking for U.S. data.
