HELP ME

I have recently given up my cable to haha save money. but I am missing The Daily Show and BSG something awful. I hear there are ways to download episodes but I don't know where or how to go about it. Can someone steer me in the right direction?

I've tried searching this thread but I'm getting nowhere.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I have to go to Lookingglass this week, so I'll try to hit Watertower Place while I'm down there.

The long tabs on the side that hold the band are also a problem, I think, if you have a small wrist. I'm not sure it would fit snugly.

My wrists are relatively small, but I also have a metal allergy to contend with. The Fossil site says they're titanium cases, which I can wear, but if there are other parts (like screws) that contact the skin I'm out of luck.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

quester, I haven't done it personally yet, but if you use BitTorrent and go to a torrent site, you can download episodes of both those shows. I have a friend who does it and burns them for me. It's slow going. Takes a while to download. And you need plenty of hard drive space.

Coding and Sleeping

Insent quester.

I have cable modem, a recent daily show takes me about 15 minutes to download. Less active torrents can take a lot longer.

tommyrot, I hear that Woodfield Mall has a place to get amazingly good chocolate. You know, should you find yourself there.

Your tag here.

Let's just say that I know for a fact that NBC/Universal (owners of BSG) frown very heavily on this practice, FYI.

Hey. New board.

Also, unlike some other studios that frown on it heavily, they nicely provide another option: you can download BSG season 2 for $1.99 an episode from the iTunes store. Which is much less a PITA than BT anyway, for the vast majority of folks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

DIY DVRs and the cloud hovering on the horizon.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Does anyone have any antenna recommendations or tips for non-cable tv? I am this close to having watchable UPN, but I can't quite get it in without a lot of sound fuzziness.
