Full analysis
Overview
The website is a free entertainment-data utility that allows visitors to search for television series and view episode-level ratings across seasons, using IMDb user-rating data as the basis for its charts.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
No identity contradictions, phishing behavior, brand impersonation, or malicious reputation signals were observed. The domain has a sustained multi-year operating history with dense archival coverage and no evidence of suspicious repurposing. Page behavior was also consistent with an informational utility: no sensitive form, concealed form, credential forwarding, wallet interaction, clipboard manipulation, or cloaking was detected.
- The domain was registered in 2021 and is approximately 5.15 years old; registration is maintained through GoDaddy.com, LLC until 6 June 2027.
- The web archive contains 173 snapshots spanning 2021–2026, representing six years of tracked history without established semantic drift.
- External reputation checks recorded zero malicious and zero suspicious detections, no phishing finding, no confirmed threat-list hit, and no reported abuse against the assessed infrastructure.
- Behavioral examination of the homepage completed two successful runs and found no hidden forms, external password forms, suspicious inline scripts, or destination mismatch.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The service presents as an informational entertainment utility rather than a financial, investment, payment, or other regulated offering. It makes no licensing claim, and the supplied homepage content provides no indication that regulatory authorization would be relevant to its stated function. Registration through a privacy service is a routine administrative arrangement and does not conflict with the site’s identity or operating model. No matching broker-related reputation record was identified.
- The homepage describes television-series and episode-rating functionality and contains no financial solicitation, cryptoasset feature, investment product, or regulated-service representation.
- The homepage provides navigation to an about page and a privacy policy, supporting ordinary informational and privacy disclosures.
- The domain registrant is recorded through Domains By Proxy, LLC as “Registration Private”; no conflicting legal-entity name appears in the assessed material.
- The site has an established traffic presence within the measured global top one million and mid-range page authority.
What to Verify Next
Routine due diligence may focus on confirming that the privacy policy adequately describes account-data handling, that account recovery messages originate from the official domain, and that the methodology for importing or presenting third-party ratings is consistent with the stated attribution. These are standard service-quality checks rather than indicators of suspected abuse.
- The homepage includes login navigation but does not expose a login or other sensitive-data form on the assessed page.
- The homepage FAQ states that historical charts can be navigated by season, episode, and air date.
- The observed page contained no browser-behavior flags, fingerprinting activity, or unexpected DOM changes after interaction.
Summary Verdict
The website is a legitimate, established, and trustworthy informational service. Its historical continuity, clean security reputation, coherent content, and benign observed behavior converge on a high-confidence assessment with no contradictory risk signals. Normal interaction, including account login and standard use, is appropriate.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site is protected by Cloudflare’s mainstream CDN/WAF infrastructure. All four observed addresses were Cloudflare edge endpoints, so the origin server was shielded from direct exposure; this reduces infrastructure exposure but is treated as a security control rather than independent proof of legitimacy. Transport encryption was valid and current at the time of assessment.
- The site is served from AS13335 (CLOUDFLARENET — Cloudflare, Inc., US), with four observed CDN edge addresses and no origin candidate exposed.
- The site’s TLS certificate was issued by YE1 with domain validation (DV) and was valid until 20 October 2026.
Closing Assessment
Prospective users may engage with the service normally while applying ordinary account-security practices, such as using a unique password and accessing the site through the official domain.

About this assessment
A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about tvcharts.co at assessment time. It is a starting point for your own judgement, not a guarantee: a high score means the signals were consistent with a legitimately operated site, a low or critical score means several risk patterns were present.
TrustSniffer assesses a website from the evidence it can collect at a point in time: domain registration and age, hosting and certificate, the content the site served, and third-party reputation feeds. A score is a summary of that evidence, not a guarantee and not a legal finding. There is no human rating and no user review in it. A site can change after it is assessed.
