We consider a mechanism for the formation of superhumps in the TV Col system,
based on the possible existence of a precessional spiral wave in the accretion
disk of the system. This mechanism can act in binaries with arbitrary
component-mass ratios, and our precessional spiral wave model can be applied to
explain observed superhumps of all types.
