If you think that any TV you want to watch should be available at the touch of a button, then you’re of the same school of thinking that I am!

I don’t want wave after wave of adverts slammed in the middle of my programs, and to be honest would pay double the subscription to have them removed.

This is why today people choose Netflix, Tivo, and Hulu.

It’s interesting that the broadcasters in the US are one step ahead of Europe in many ways. The BBC have their on demand service… but most shows often choose to host their episodes on their websites, making them only available to viewers in the US!

If I go to the trouble of using a US proxy to channel my connection I can view episodes of Supernatural and Battlestar Galactica. I shouldn’t have to do this though….Why is this service unavailable through standard web connections in the UK?

The shows are on UK terrestrial TV and we all pay a TV license, so we should be able to watch them online without painful workarounds!

HULU is the ultimate in viewing and I really wish that a mainstream service like this was available in the UK!

So I’ve been speaking to a few bloggers in the US and it seems that they are experiencing the same influx of continuing television series as we are here in the UK.

So far my week is consisting of Work…. inter-spaced with Heroes, Prison Break, Supernatural, The Unit, Fringe, Dexter and the New Knight Rider series. So most of my evenings are either spent on social or TV.

With the upcoming release of the new season of Battlestar Galactica and the TV film 24:Redemption there’s certainly a lot to contend with.

StillIi guess this is all making up for the long and painful WGA strike.
