For example - if a popular TV show is about to have its season or series finale, or a sport league is about to have its championship game. Are there any websites that track these, without all the noise of less important shows or games, to keep track of?

ESPN.com does seem to track upcoming sporting events pretty well, but it’s not that easy to tell which upcoming games are “big” for the league in question or not.

    What you define as “popular” or “less important” isn’t going to be the same as everyone else. You’d have to tell it what you’re interested in to get anything useful out of it.

      By “less important” I just meant, for example, games that are in the beginning or middle of their respective league instead of the championship game - or shows for a series that are in the middle of a season, instead of a premiere or finale.

      I know every game is vitally important to someone, or that every episode of a given show is important to a dedicated enough viewer - but season/series premieres/finales and sporting league championship games are definitely set apart from the rest. Lots of people watch the Baseball World Series finale games. A lot fewer watch every game leading up to it. Lots of people will watch the series finale for a popular TV show, even if they didn’t happen to catch every episode preceding it. That sort of thing.

      I’m not too concerned about the cutoff for “popular”. If the site wants to tell me about the Curling world cup, then by all means.
