Watching Television Programs Online

For those of us who live in the 3rd or 4th world, getting any kind of first rate television program is more wish than reality.

If we do get a top rated show you can be sure it is a few years old and that if the season was twenty episodes, we might get ten or fifteen.

This means that if we want to watch television and are not willing to pay for Cable, (often this is just as bad as television in that ‘copyright’ is often breached and the shows are removed) we can forget it, or go online.

There are many sites online which give you free television programs.  These sites are absolutely free, you don’t have to join anything.

For example watchseries.cr, watch-episodes.com are just two sites which offer many series free but also have links to other sites where the series can be watched.

Some sites are better than others, so you need to be alert to whether episodes are jumbled, (as happens occasionally on watchseries.cr) or the referrals on watch-episodes are empty.

These are only two major sites which offer thousands of programs.   There are other sites, some program specific.

When you watch online you are often provoked to do a marathon; that is watch episode after episode.

Some shows, those with what is called a story arc (think a novel put to visual) make this pleasant.  Like reading book, chapter after chapter, the shows are connected, and in sequence.

Shows which are episodic, that is each episode stands alone with little connecting it to the previous showing, do not stand well to marathon viewing.

There are shows which are enjoyable once a week.  Seeing three or more together often indicates how badly they are written or how it is the same story told over and again.

Often, a hit show, watched in a marathon, proves itself not so wonderful.   You see the repetitions, the tricks, which you would have missed watching one a week.

The nice part of watching online is not merely the lack of commercials, but the power you have to stop a show and start it at your convenience.

Over time you may not even turn on your television set, (except to watch the local news) as there is so much out there, from Vintage Shows as Twilight Zone, to current offerings as Hawaii Five O.

    • With the slow internet connections I wonder if one can watch a full movie for example. How do you find it. Do you have a fast ISP? I will try and see and thank you for those addresses.

    • I don't have that fast a connection, but what you do is if the show sort of halts, you hit the little arrow thing... it's an arrow if it is not showing but loading, and to lines when it is showing. So you halt it, (as you would do if you were getting up to get coffee) and then give it a few minutes and start it...

    • You have the power to stop and start, so you use it. What you find is that if you halt the showing of it by pushing the arrow, as I mentioned, and then play a game,like solitare or write an item offline, for about say... ohhh... ten minutes... and when you go back the show ought have loaded to the extent that it flows.

      Cause my connection is no super shot
