How do you TV?

I don't have TV. I have TV sets, but just for watching DVDs and playing video games. No cable, or even a digital converter box, which means no channels at all.

I watch Hulu or Netflix, or download TV from torrents. I can usually get all of my favorite shows the same night they air, sometimes even before they air in my timezone.

P.S. If anyone has a TVTorrents.com invite code, gimmie gimmie kplz. A few years ago I let my sister-in-law use it and she used all of my credits and now I am sad. ;_;

I'm the same way, I don't have cable or a digital converter box so if I ever want to watch something I have to find it online somewhere, normally on Hulu or Megavideo.

Where do you go to get it on the same day though? I always end up having to wait until the following day to get to see anything.

I have a TV with cable, but I generally just watch football, House, and DVDs on it. The majority of my TV/movie watching is on my computer, through streaming or torrents.

ISOHunt or Demonoid, mostly. TVTorrents would be splendid if my account weren't in the toilet. :/

I have three tv sets. One has cable the other has cable and box and the third is my personal game use only..

I have all the free to air TV channels, but mostly my TV is used for gaming or sports when it's on. Movies and TV are done through my comp.

The image display on our ancient TV keeps expanding. Like, things on the sides are cut off. It gets worse and worse by the day. When I first bought FFXIII some things were cut off, but I could see everything fine. Now the symbols on the map legend are completely obscured, along with a letter or two of its meaning, and when I do weapon upgrading the last two digits of the EXP count for items on the right column are cut off. Sometimes we'll be watching The Daily Show or something, and we can't tell what it says under the little picture box on the top left.

The household I currently live at has DirecTV, so when I watch TV, I use that. Most of the time. Sometimes I just watch on my computer. Usually Hulu, but sometimes I have other means, like when I want to watch Doctor Who. :3

Try eztv.it.

I get all of my shows online, because paying for television is a waste of money when half of the channels have nothing on them ever. I also use my brother's Netflix accounts for shows I am only slightly interested in, as well as movies I don't care about that much. I have a Hulu account for some random reason as well.

I just torrent or stream via sidereal or TVduck.

I have a TV with cable. Most of the time I just program Tivo to record all the shows we like and then we watch them at our leisure. Stuff we can't/don't record we just find online (like HBO stuff).

I have free TV in the dorms, though it's some weird amalgamation of channels they chose. I tend to not watch it, and when I do it is usually to watch the History Channel or something. It's mostly for gaming or watching movies, as I just am not a TV show person much anymore, even on Hulu or other sites.

I'm at work and tonight I am going to go get drunk before I get on the plane to visit Rubah, but I will check if I can get an invite code sent to you.

oh topic! I obviously download tv shows

Alternatively, I have a ridiculous amount of credit on my tvtorrents account..but do I trust a white woman with my pikachu account...

edit - omg topic - I obv download tv shows

I have comcast. It's usually either on Discovery Channel ESPN or Comedy Central.

Thank you for the suggestions, Bunny and Rye. <3 Ever since the loss of Ninjavideo and the bastardization of Megavideo, I have been at a loss.

I only watch Dexter, Desperate Housewives and [insert 3rd show]. Right now my 3rd show is Six Feet Under, no plans on beginning any new show until I'm done with that. And that's all I do with a TV!

I use piratebay to download torrents, but if I somehow need to stream then I use tvshack.cc

I only use TV for catching up with the news, and National Geograhic as background scenery.

BTJunkie and/or KAT are abused without prejudice. :D

Ninjavideo. :cry:

I used to use tvrss.net, but it seems to be broken now. ;-; You could add shows as feeds directly into uTorrent and have them download automatically as soon as they're released. I now use isohunt and iptorrents, mostly the latter for shows. I only use my TV for video games and occasionally as a monitor to watch what I have downloaded.

eztv is all I need. I buy a few really good shows on DVD, like The West Wing and Babylon 5, but mostly it's torrents.

I have digital cable at home, but I don't like watching it because of commercials. I torrent every show I watch, it's awesome. :bigsmile:

This. I only really care about watching one show most of the time. Direc currently had stars available for the weekend. Now I'm sad that it's gone. I got to watch Hancock, District 9, Zombieland, and The Princess and the Frog the weekend.

Nice to know I'm not alone. I haven't really watched cable in years. Commercials grate my nerves something fierce. So I've generally always torrented things. Not too many these days though. I'm about to give up on Bones and send it the way I did House. I haven't checked out a lot of new shows. So really the only thing I still have hope for is Big Bang Theory. It amuses me. But that's about it. Sometimes I'll download a good documentary that National Geographic, History Channel, or Discovery decided to air. But I rarely hear about them since I don't watch TV. I'm fine with my television set being used for more important and commercial-free business :]

I use Comcast On Demand and my family is subscribed to Shotime so I can watch Dexter <3 HBO, Encore, and Starz in addition to the channels provided with comcast like Sundance and TMC. All good stuff for some good movies. If I want to see a movie that's not on Comcast, or being sold anywhere around me, (or I refuse to see it in the movie theater because I'm ashamed lawl Eclipse) then I go to Watch Movies. Other times I just rent movies from the school and watch them or check out the bootlegs my dad gives me. xD

I don't watch TV. Like, at all.

If there's a movie or show I wanna see, I'll either download it or buy the DVDs when they come out. :p

I mostly watch tv shows online on surfthechannel, tvblinkx or sidereel. Or at least, whatever upload site they direct me to. Only ever really watch sport on the actual television I have.

My parents have dish network. We didn't have HBO until I convinced my mom to get it so I didn't have to hunt TB down every sunday. Now I just set it to record as well as my other few shows I watch. Even then, I have missed some shows so I just go to sidereel usually. Ever since :( Ninjavideo :(

I hate hulu for region locking thier videos and not letting me watch shows that havent aired in Australia
