Do you watch the shows that you miss during the week online? I just got done watching Grey's Anatomy from this past Thursday and right now I am watching Desperate Housewives.

Sometimes I do watch television shows online. I watch Grey's Anatomy sometimes but I always watch Supernatural online. It is convenient to watch them online because I can watch them whenever I want to. I like this because I can pause the program and watch it whenever I feel like it. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

What site do you use? I am looking into cancelling my cable tv - I don't watch much as there is so little to watch and want to see about watching on line for hte very few I do watch and not spend $33 a month for cable!! Thanks!

Most of the shows I watch are on ABC, so I just go to www.abc.com to watch them. You can watch full episodes of any of the current shows and shows from previous seasons.

Thanks. I will look into that! Would really be a good thing if I can make that work (other people involved) and save $33 a month! But then again, that is our ONLY luxury - tv and it is ONLY for basic cable - no movie channels or things like that. Not a bad bill if it is all we spend on entertainment all month!

I love it! I am so happy that just about all the networks are carrying shows on their websites now. We just got back from vacation and I missed my shows all week. It was nice to be able to catch up online. Plus, I like being able to pause it and the commercials are very limited so it takes less time to watch the shows online than it does on tv.

I have been doing that so that I can have a first glimpse of the show before it is being shown in my country. Where do you usually watch tv shows online? My only source is surfthechannel.com.

I've done it a few times when I've missed something or if On Demand doesn't have the episode up yet and I can't wait to see it. I've done it most with Big Brother since it comes on a few times each week. When it starts, I have to get back into the groove again and remember what nights it's on. Doesn't always happen and I have to watch online instead.

I watch programmes on-line that I have missed as I dont have sky plus or anything to record the programme. It's a good way to catch up.

I have done that in the past. I have watched programs on abc.com, nbc.com and cbs.com. It's nice to be able to see shows that you have missed or are on at the same tome. One of our local stations also has some programs from the far past like the love boat and the twilight zone.

I have done this. My hubby and I like the show Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles. We missed an episode. So when he got home from work I looked it up. And then we watched it. Have only done it once though.

I haven't watched any shows online lately but I actually had a teacher in college that would watch Flavor of Love on his computer during class so we would watch it with him.

I love surfthechannel.com I watch everything I can there. Recently I watched the complete series of Roswell and now I am keeping up with True Blood weekly because we don't have HBO.
