This isn't a TV! Or is it?
|
These are some helpful hints for those who are not especially knowledgeable of how to find Television shows on the Internet.
During my days as a college freshman, far away from home, I often was stuck with a lot of free time (Especially on the holidays). It is then I discovered youtube. I found it amazing I could watch all these television shows I just loved back home(where I had Satellite)! Of course, eventually youtube merged with google and took down many of these beloved shows. Therefore, I looked elsewhere: Where might I get my next fix for X-Files, Smallville, or The Office, or watch Lost season 3 after it already ended? I did not have a lot of money to be spending on DVD Season box sets.
The result is a wide library of video sharing sites and the methods to find what I’m looking for. So let’s start at the beginning:
Television Shows
How do I word my search?
If you are searching for a Live-action show (that is, not cartoons or anime), this method is suggested:

After a long cold winter, TV is back! With more new episodes of all our favourite shows cropping up every week, our spirits are higher than they've been in months. Still, there's a very large "BUT" hanging about.
Our shows are back, BUT, they've all been moved around and a great many of them are now appearing on the same nights! I'll allow that this whole rant might just because this is the first time that my favourite shows are suddenly all scheduled at the same time... it's possible that other people have had this happen before. Still, I'm sure I'm not alone.
So far, this is how my week is shaping up:
Monday:
8pm - Bones, Gossip Girl
8:30pm - How I Met Your Mother
9pm - One Tree Hill, House
9:30pm - Samantha Who?
Thursday:
8pm - Ugly Betty
9pm - The Office, Grey's Anatomy (whose brilliant idea was this???)
9:30pm - Scrubs
10pm - Lost
Sunday:
9pm - The Tudors, Desperate Housewives

A fairly common idea in television is to have a main character have a near death experience. Whenever I watch these episodes, I always know that they'll never kill off a main character - or will they?
If the writing is really good it can make you believe that the character might actually die. Here, I'll discuss how believable these near-deaths really were.
The Simpsons - Homer
The Story: Lisa insists the family have something instead of porkchops on Friday, so they go out for sushi. Homer eats some improperly cut Fugu and finds he has twenty-hour hours to live. He spends his last moments listening to the Bible read by Larry King. The next morning Marge finds some warm drool on his lip and wakes him up. He didn't die.
Believability: I knew they wouldn't have killed the leading male in the second season of the show. Where would the show be if they had? Canceled - that's where.
Everybody Loves Raymond - Ray
