Sorry, Scarlett! It's the #1 or #2 google result for "TV shows online", so I assumed it was pretty well know. Still, great site.

I know, they are found pretty easily. I was teasing.  ;) It is a great site, I just don't usually post them if they're free sites just in case, but that might just be me.

Old thread, but I just wanted to share this link: http://www.tv-links.co.uk/. Basically, it's a compiled list of TV shows that you can stream in Windows Media or a YouTube-like pop up window.


I don't know how I missed this when it was originally posted, but I'm glad I saw it! That TV site is awesome! I'm catching up on Gilmore Girls and Scrubs so far, and there's other shows I like too. Thanks for the tip!

You'd be shocked how many don't know about this one which is why I never mention it. It's my favorite site and I watch more on it than my television ;)

Glad I'm not the only one who doesn't like to mention them publicly.  :)

It seems selfish I know but everytime you tell someone, that's one more person who makes the risk of losing a site like this greater. As well, the traffic increases thusfore, your quality decreases. So.....I tell no one when I can ;)

Holy crap, thanks!  I had not heard of that site.  But half the links on there did not open for me. Or it would just say "loading" and nothing ever happened.

How do you get this site to work?  I wanted to watch Rome and the Tudors and it isn't working!  >:(

A lot of them have been taken down for copyright violations.  The videos on those kinds of sites tend to be short-lived..they'll be up for a few days or weeks before someone catches it or reports it and then it vanishes.  Useful if you want to catch the latest episode of a show the day after it airs, not so useful if you're trying to catch up on past seasons.

I tried it yesterday and watched an episode of The Office - was brilliant!  The loading did stop/go very slowly a few times but for the most part it was great.

Yeah, the links for extremely popular network shows usually die in a day or two. I know one or two more reliable sites like that one and so anyone who wants the links to those can PM me since a few people don't like them mentioned publically.  :)
