Here is a direct URL to TV listings specifically for blind and low-vision
people.  It is very accessible and offers full information about each show.
 You can first select the day you want, and then, you can select the time
range you want, e.g. 6:00 to mid-night, and then, you will be shown all of
the listings for that particular time range.  All the times given seem to
be in the Eastern time zone.  Here is the URL and then, below the URL, I
give an illustration of the kind of listing you will have available to you.
