NEW YORK, July 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TPGtv gets straight to the point: The Points Guy announces the re-launch of TPGtv with a new short, fast, and information-driven format. This one-of-a-kind web series showcases the extraordinary travel experiences made possible by maximizing frequent flyer miles and credit card points and has established itself as an indispensable resource for travel lovers. Since it launched in February, TPGtv has generated over 8.4M views. With the debut of the new episodes, viewers will discover The Points Guy, Brian Kelly's, smartest travel strategies and personal recommendations in 90-second to two-minute episodes that are packed full of priceless information. Each video was produced with social media in mind so that viewers can consume them without sound and through easy-to-read captions that follow every detail of Kelly's trips, from the points he used to the dishes he ate.
