I almost made the same mistake (I had TAR7 as a higher priority season pass, never expecting a conflict) but remembered to check my to-do list because I'm running out of room on my Tivo. If you can't get it via torrent, let me know and I can copy it to disc.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Well, tvtorrents.tv, actually. Or btefnet.com, org, net, info...

DCJ, that's a different site (which you might already know). I like the one I mentioned because it's simple to navigate and it's been around forever. They only do television, specifically current stuff.

I guess my main objection is that tvtorrents.com is a login site that makes you register.
As far as I know, tvtorrents.tv and btefnet have been around longer and do not require a login, credits, or have glitzy ads.
They also only do TV shows.

If I only had a brain...
I torrented it. Thanks, all.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Just don't download the Lost ep18 from btefnet. They claim it is watchable but my friend downloaded it and said it is, in fact, watchable ... if you don't mind black screens and large green blocks covering most of the screen at random intervals. ThePirateBay.org has a different copy of ep18. It's supposedly 5.1 audio so the file size is 700mb but it looks and plays perfectly.

Deena,
I use tvtorrents.tv - which used to be tvtorrents.net I think. I have never used a site that required a login.

It did seem odd to have to log in when I first went there, but, many moons ago, it was the only site I could find a particular show. They've never used my login information for anything other than being sure that I'm uploading as much as I'm downloading. They've got quite a little community going, with chatting and stuff. I've gotten used to them, I guess. The ads are fairly recent. The guy who runs the site had to do some major upgrades and the donations weren't coming in for it.
I'm not saying anyone else should use it, just that it's not a bad place to find stuff.

I downloaded the same 350 MB file and get a nice crisp clear picture.
That means he doesn't have the correct or an up-to-date codec. If you don't want to update to a new codec, Try VLC player [link] instead.
