BuddyTV, the community that's founded around pop culture television, is being acquired by Comcast.
The cable network provider plans to incorporate BuddyTV into its recently launched Fancast website, and Fandango. Both are services that revolve around finding programming and purchasing movie tickets online. BuddyTV's community should be a welcome addition to Comcast's growing collection of online resources, especially as the Fancast could stand to benefit from a more involved community of users.
The company has reported that it's seen a good amount of growth in the past few months, growing to 3 million unique visitors on a monthly basis, and has expanded to accommodate 20 employees. BuddyTV also received a $2.8 million investment infusion last July.
