TBS has launched a brand new Windows Store app featuring a touch-centric interface that allows users to customize their daily dose of comedy and share the laughter with friends. The TBS app for Windows 8 is now available for free download from the Windows Store.
The TBS app takes advantage of new Windows user interface capabilities and provides users with easy customization and sharing functionality. With a couple of swipes, users can get an overview of featured content, a schedule of TBS shows and personalized saved content. Users can create personal favorites lists of videos to watch from a wide range of comedy shows on TBS, including the late-night hit Conan; primetime originals like Men at Work, Sullivan & Son and Cougar Town; and acquired rerun favorites like The Big Bang Theory and Family Guy. We'll have more on our weekly Digital Digest this Saturday!
Check out the new promo for Cougar Town Season 4, launching Tuesday, Jan. 8, 2013 at 10/9 central on TBS!
