AdieuTV
A TV-farewell app that tracks cast and host departures from long-running series — when a beloved actor announces their exit, when a sidekick 'Gégé' leaves the show, or when a host steps down after 20 years — and gives fans a place to mourn, recap, and share tributes.

The David Giguère / Antigang departure is generating search interest in Quebec, but the underlying behavior (fans tracking their favorite show's departures) is universal and recurring year-round.
Recurrent fan interest is real — David Giguère's Gégé exit from Radio-Canada's Antigang generated multiple dedicated articles (QUB, Monde des Stars, 7 Jours), r/Fantributes exists, and StillCasting tracks 39,104 titles focused on cast status — but this is a niche recurring beat, not mass-market search volume.David Giguère n'était pas prêt à faire ses adieux à Gégé dans «Antigang» ↗r/Fantributes - Reddit ↗Which Movie & TV Cast Members Are Still Alive? | StillCasting ↗
No direct competitor specifically for tracking cast/host departures and fan tributes — StillCasting focuses on deaths only, TV trackers (TV Time, Trakt, Serializd, Matinee, Simkl) handle watchlists, TVCeleb covers broad fandom, and MyCast is for casting — leaving a real but adjacent gap.Best TV Show Tracker Apps in 2026 — Complete Comparison | Matinee ↗TVCeleb.com - The Living Archive of TV Fandom Worldwide ↗myCast.io — Fan Casting Platform ↗
Very weak — cast exit news is freely available on entertainment sites, fan tribute apps like TributePath target bereavement (not entertainment) where willingness to pay is higher, and StillCasting appears ad/free; subscription $3-5/mo on a niche fandom app will struggle.Home - TributePath ↗Which Movie & TV Cast Members Are Still Alive? | StillCasting ↗
Long-running franchises (Grey's, soaps, late-night, Quebec dailies like Antigang) generate continuous departure news year-round — pattern is structurally durable, though AI news summarizers could commoditize the aggregation layer.20 Times TV Stars Were Forced Out, Walked Away, or Met a Shocking End ↗David Giguère revient sur la mort de son personnage Gégé dans Antigang ↗
Highly buildable — TMDb/Wikipedia APIs already power StillCasting's 394K-cast database; RSS scraping + LLM summarization covers news aggregation; the social/memorial layer adds moderate complexity but no hard blockers.Which Movie & TV Cast Members Are Still Alive? | StillCasting ↗
