TLC may not be the first choice of channel when turning on the TV, but as far as reality programming goes, this channel has got the most original and controversial line-up around. For those who just can’t get enough Jon & Kate Plus 8 or What Not to Wear, the TLC Network app from TLC provides great on the go solution for absolutely free.

This app features a slew of TLC’s shows you can watch anytime, each show’s page includes a snipit of the video clip as well as a More tab with pictures, cast bios,related blogs from the TLC website, and links to the full episodes in iTunes. You can also preview the guide to see times of upcoming shows.

For even a more social media experience, you can link the app to your Twitter and Facebook accounts. Allowing you to publish links and videos to your accounts. This app also offers TLC lifestyle guides with blogs on food,family,style and more.

The app has awesome graphics and is pleasant to look at and neatly designed menus. It’s almost amazing that all of this is free, except for the fact of the little advertisements on the bottom of the screen. It’s also a let down when you click on the “Full Episode” tab and are required to pay $2 each. but oh well it’s still not that bad.

Some may not see this app to be as appealing as it is to others, but if the wait list at Kat Von D’s High Voltage Tattoo in Hollywood is any indication, there are probably a lot of LA Ink fans out there just dying to carry the show around in their pockets.
