TV, Not Telly.

Being in the UK, or just out of the United States for that matter, means that I cannot stream full TV episodes from American sites like nbc.com and mtv.com. Apparently, they have their software read your IP Address to determine whether or not you're accessing their copyrighted material from abroad. That means, no new episodes of Chuck, The Office or The Daily Show. Darn. It also means that I've had to get slightly more creative in getting the TV fix that I need. Yeah, I know that I'm supposed to be seeking out local media and immersing myself in all that's British, but frankly shows on the Telly are really not that impressive. I mean, have you seen British Deal or No Deal? Seriously.

Aside from the stuff that I can access via Megaupload and Rapidshare links of blogs, here's a list of the top 3 sites that have been keeping me current:

http://www.hulu.com
http://www.megavideo.com

Any other suggestions?
