Thread: Is It Possible To Get Tv Episodes

  1. #1
    Is it possible to get episodes of television shows before they are broadcast over the air? I made a $5 bet with a friend who says you can get most episodes a week before they are on TV, but I think he's lying. Not exactly a trustworthy person... I'm almost positive you can't just need a final answer that I can shove in his face and ask for the $5 with . And if you can, how? I don't want to wait 3 weeks for the next episode (season finally) of Alias...

    Edit: Maybe there should be a Televisionworld now that I think about it, we got a Sportsworld...

    its possible, but doesnt happen much. someone friends with teh producers could steel it and leak it out onto the internet...

    It used to happen quite frequently - but not a week in advance, a day or so in advance was quite common. I used to download Friends and CSI the morning of the day they were airing last season, and even at the beginning of this season, but they haven't been available that early the last few months.

    They're called wildfeeds, and they're transmissions sent by the networks via satellite to their affiliate stations. If you're in the correct location and have the right equipment, you can receive them, and some of the TV show cappers used to do this. This season, most of the networks have begun to encrypt these feeds, so it's not seen as commonly as it was in the past.

    I do it all the time. prime time in the east coast is early afternoon for me. everything i watch on network tv is delayed.

    i enjoy downloading american idol and telling everyone what happened before the show airs.

    it all depends on where your are and what you watch.

    i watched gundam seed as it was airing in japan. it only took a few days for me to get a subtitled copy. only now it is being aired in america. im over a year ahead in that series
