I’ve noticed something about the college lifestyle. No matter how much students get hooked on a particular TV show, it becomes a chore to figure out when to watch it. For example, occasionally I’ll be able to watch a show I want to watch when it actually airs on TV. But this is a very rare occurrence. More often than not, I (and many of my friends) am stuck watching shows online.
But where are the best places to watch these shows online? Hulu.com has most shows, although if you’re looking for Arrested Development, you’re going to be hard-pressed to find it—seasons two and three are no longer available online. If Hulu.com doesn’t have it, then your best bet is probably the network’s Web site. That’s where I saw the first episode of Glee, although now Glee, FlashForward and The Cleveland Show are all on Hulu.com. If they ever take Glee offline, I don’t know what I’ll do.
Students also have wide varieties of what their favorite shows are. For instance, my favorite TV show, by far, is definitely Glee, and I know several of my friends feel the same way. However, another one of my friends is a fan of The Wire, which he describes as “almost like pornography,” even though this is a show that I had never even heard of until he brought it up. Because I was curious about this sort of thing (how students watch TV shows and what TV shows they are watching), I made a short video that partially answers these questions. Chew it over.

I've been watching two shows on a regular basis since school started: Californication and Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Californication is on Showtime, which we don't have, so I have to download the show after it airs, because it's not on hulu. But my roommates and I have a ritual every week to sit down and watch Always Sunny together on Thursday nights. So far it's been 6 weeks and we haven't missed an episode (knock on wood).
ReplyDeleteNice job thinking of something to do a video on. I would suggest editing the music so it doesn't get cut off in the middle of a phrase at the end. the interviews are enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteLike Steve said, I've been really into Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Californication and Entorage. Since I have no time to sit down and relax, Hulu is awesome to catch up on shows that I missed during the past week Also, nice video! I really enjoyed the titles, music and beginning!
