Music choice can make or break any movie or TV episode. But when you hear a song you love or recognize but don’t know the name of, it can totally take you out of the story. Instead of paying attention to the plot, you’re frantically trying to open Shazam before the song ends or find music by lyrics on Google. If this sounds familiar, we have the perfect tool for you: Tunefind. This website lets you easily search for songs from almost any movie or show. Read on to learn more about Tunefind and how to find music from your favorite TV show or movie easily.

What is Tunefind?

Tunefind is a massive online database of music used in TV shows, movies, and video games. The library is massive, covering thousands of new releases and old favorites. Users can search for a specific show/movie or browse the latest episodes and movies on the homepage. If you make an account, you can also set up alerts for your favorite shows or movies to receive updates on the latest episodes or changes to the tracklist.

For television series, the listings are broken down by season and episode. Some listings even include scene descriptions that explain what was happening in the show while the song was playing. This makes it even easier to find the name and artist of the track you’re looking for.

Song listings are submitted by Music Supervisors (the professionals who select music used in media) or users like you. The site uses a voting system to prioritize accuracy. Users can vote on whether the listed song (or version of it) is correct. Once enough users vote, the song is confirmed with a green checkmark; if it’s incorrect, the track is removed from the song list.

The website is also updated regularly. For television programs that are currently on the air, new episodes with complete track lists are posted within minutes of the end of the episode.

Name that tune

Using Tunefind is simple. Use the search bar at the top of the site to look up a TV show, movie, or artist. The website has listings for media across all genres, including reality shows and late-night talk shows. For recently released movies and episodes, you can browse the homepage. Or, for shows that haven’t aired yet, you can check the on-site TV schedule and create an account to set up alerts for new song listings.

Once you’ve found the song you’re looking for, you can choose to listen to it on a variety of popular music streaming platforms, including Amazon Music, Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Users can also discover new music by checking out Tunefind’s Trending Music page, which lists the top ten most popular songs of the week.

You can find music by sound with Shazam or look up lyrics online. But why put in all the effort when someone else has already done it for you? Never again will you be plagued by the agony of trying to remember that one song you heard on that show the other night. With Tunefind, all you need is the name of the movie or TV show you’re watching. In minutes, you’ll have the name of the song, the artist who sings it, and every other song used in the series or movie. Isn’t that so much easier?

Death, drama, and game shows are quite a mix in these Squid Game-like series
The cast of season 3 of Squid Game.

Squid Game surely superseded any expectations the creators had when the South Korean drama series premiered in 2021. Now the most popular show in the history of Netflix, the series follows a group of desperate contestants who will sacrifice anything to win a massive cash prize in a long line of lethal games and activities. The concept seems more like something that would be on reality TV than scripted, but the creators more than make everything work. Squid Game is able to grapple with a lot of thought-provoking issues while never shying away from addicting devices and unique episodes that beg to keep viewers hooked to the screen all night long.

There's nothing exactly like Squid Game, or at least nothing that has equaled it in popularity. We've dove into the deepest parts of the TV landscape to find series that resemble the South Korean phenomenon in the way they create drama, the setting they take place in, or the genre elements they imitate. These are shows like Squid Game that you need to watch right away.

While most of the time, people are infatuated with true crime series and depressing recollections of real serial killers on streaming services like Netflix and Hulu, others want something a little less intense. The Dexter franchise has provided that alternate universe for those who want to dive into the homicidal genre while still being able to root for the psycho at the center of the drama.

His solution to curing South Florida's murder problem? Killing the bad guys himself.

Dexter's popularity throughout the 2000s and 2010s has led to several spinoff series. Dexter: Original Sin, Dexter: New Blood, and Dexter: Resurrection are the three shows that have extended Dexter's story to varying degrees of success. Some fans are starting to get tired of the Dexter franchise, but they still want the thrill of the original show (and that includes me). If you're one of those people. like me, it's time to check out these shows like Dexter to feed your dark passenger.

As it turns out, the building is the Bell Works building in Holmdel, New Jersey. It was once the home of Bell Labs, the research arm for AT&T. The building is now home to multiple business, and according to reporting in Curbed, it was first designed in 1962 by architect Eero Saarinen and was opened as a mid-century office space.
