How to Download Free TV Episodes
- 1). Find the site you like. There are many websites to choose from that enable you to download TV shows for free. Some require registration and some don't. Websites such as www.TVFreeload.com and www.otavo.tv have a large variety of shows to choose from. They do require that you register and give them your email address and other personal information. Be careful of opt-ins and opt-outs. An opt-in requires you to check a box if you are interested in other offers (meaning your email address will be given to other websites), and opt-outs require you to uncheck a box if you are not interested in having your email address shared with third parties.
Other sites, such as www.hulu.com, do not require registration. You can also watch at the websites of the networks that air the shows. - 2). Register for the site, if necessary, and then click on the show you want to watch. The video typically starts with a short commercial from the sponsor. You can't fast-forward these as you can when watching a taped episode on your TV, but these interruptions are typically brief. These sites have the latest episodes of popular shows like "24," "Lost," "Bones," "Family Guy," "The Office," "Saturday Night Live" and others. You can also download old episodes to get caught up with a series.
- 3). Sit back and enjoy the show.
