Watch Free TV Online...Shows With Full Television Episodes and No Cost!

Watch free TV shows online here, like The OC, The Office, 24, Scrubs, Prison Break...by Paula Neal Mooney

Upate: I've created an online TV guide listing channels and links to watching full and partial episodes on the web.

"Watch live TV for free online!"

"Watch 24 online! Watch The Office online!"

The people have spoken.

Not only do we want our MTV, we want to watch our favorite MTV shows online...and our ABC shows, and our CBS shows...all for free viewing, full episodes.

And the TV execs are finally catching up with some of the renegade start-ups listed next to them below and are making some full episodes of their TV shows available to watch online for free.

Now, you may need a lightening fast connection and a whole lotta good juju for some of these babies to work -- check the site's specific requirements.

Paula --> I discovered these full episodes a few months ago. I now end up watching most of my television via the Internet during the middle of the work week. I often miss the original airing of a show in the evening because of meetings, children and such. These free/full episodes have been ideal for keeping up with Prison Break, NCIS, The Unit, Lost, 24 and such.

Great info. I didn't know about VH1 and some of the others on your list.

peace, Villager

This is great, Paula! Especially now in summer re-runs -- with this, I can finally go back and catch up on the shows I completely missed out on while I was devoted to LOST, Boston Legal, 30 Rock, and yes, I admit it, the last, strange season of The Apprentice w/Donald Trump (I think they've finally jumped the shark, you know what I mean?). Anyway, this is one for http://FetchRex.com. Regards, Sherri

I have tested Joost and it worked for me. Not a big deal as to shows unless you like documentaries and Scifi series. What I did enjoy was the full screen mode and how interactive it can be. It was easy to move across the channels, watch was on next, play what was coming next, update online if available (the list is growing fast), chat, send mails to your friends, work with widgets,etc.

I am down for that! I already watch wonder woman for free on Aol IN2TV!

Hey Wayne the Villager
Yeah, when my TiVo flipped out a little on Grey's Anatomy, I was grateful to be able to catch it online.

Now people all over the UK are searching for that show online!

Hi Sherri
Yes, I'm glad The Apprentice w/Donald Trump has finally been cancelled!

But I do want to give a look-see to other shows I've missed like 30 Rock and such.

Hey Carlos
I seriously need to look further into my DirectX error. I was up too late last night to want to Google into it, but I think I just need to "Upgrade U" -- sorry, had a Beyonce moment there -- or, upgrade one of those doohickeys to get it to work.

I like documentaries, and I like checking back on these sites to see what new shows they've all added.

Hi Kimberly
That is so wonderful you watch Wonder Woman!

I can hear the theme song now -- Wonder Woman!

Ah...Linda Carter was just so empowering to us girls of the '70s, catching those criminals with her truth rope in her little 20-inch-waist-cinching-gold-belted getup!

Think I'll go back and check out some Chico and The Man...

I tried just one and it says "US only"

Howdy Maurizio

Which one did you try? The VideoHybrid? ABC's site?

I'm really hoping the Grey's Anatomy ones are available to international readers because there's a big interest in GA overseas...

Good job Paula. Have you tried Sopcast? It's a p2p online TV. Much like Joost.
Unknown said…
Awesome! Plus it makes sense. If people are gonna put your shows online, why not best them by showing clear ones, unlike those on YouTube?

hiiiii i just hv to drop a comment with all that please comment... as i live in portugal we hv like weeks delay on episodes from the most famous tv shows and what i used to do was emule it or ask a friend to send me but this sounds much better and easier!! thanx for the info!!

Affzan

Thanks for the info.

I just went on the SopCast site and signed up and got annoyed cause they immediately told me I needed to update to a new version.

Ah...I think I just need to eat lunch. But I see they've got ESPN and stuff on there.

Maybe I can tell my hubby about this. I appreciate it.

Hey Leon
Exactly! ABC and all those places need to get more with the program.

Don't they know how many people are searching for Oprah and The View episodes online?

Confessing7girl
Hey, what you are confessing? ;-)

Let me know if these work for you down in Portugal.

One of my readers in Switzerland couldn't access the ABC site, but VideoHybrid worked for him.

Hey musicmixingguru brother man...
So you're a Mac user, heh?

I heard that this stuff doesn't work for you all. Do any of them work for Mac users?

There've gotta be some sites out there for Mac users that do the same thing.

Sounds like you should post about those!

Those Mac "mouses" kinda freak me out...

Way cool info! Your site is looking awesome, BTW!! Nice updates! I'll be giving this one a stumble!

lol i use a wireless pc mouse and keyboard on my mac. It was funny that you mentioned it. by mac key and mouse broke and i had that wireless setup laying around. I thought about posting it but i haven't found the time to find a service that will work. i been so much on just audio that im going crazy. But i have been learning more about audio in these last few weeks then i have i the last 2 years combined. Audio Changes frequently so i have a lot to post.you should get on your own server you have too good of a site to just keep it on blogger.
Paris David said…
Thanks for the Stumble, AgentSully.
You didn't read the part of my email asking if that was your real avatar...

Music Mix Guru Bro' Man
Yeah, it's funny you should write that 'cause I'm playing around on DreamHost right now, looking for a good URL and an even better coupon code around the net!

But that'll be for new dot coms I set up. I am not transferring this PR5 God-blessed baby anytime soon!

I have watched all of the Spongebob ones...wish we could get Fosters House for imaginary Friends or even My Gym Partner's a Monkey.

Run's house is actually one show I love to watch...I like the one where he busted Diggy for stealing everything.

Thanks for the post...I am finally back from my 3 month European vacation...ok I didnt even leave my city, but i'm reading a lot again!

Hi Paula!

I don't know about everyone else, but I'm tired of reality shows.

I want some good clean shows like The Cosbys and Growing Pains ...

I don't own a TV so it was nice to catch all my favorite shows online. Sadly, most of these sites are blocked where I am living now, in the Philippines.

This is a great list. I don't usually watch TV online but I am pretty happy with Joost.

You can watch online television shows and movies any time you want, for free!

Update: For those who continue to enjoy this post, check out my website about 50 real online people making more than $50k per year , and my page where I update my online salary .

Since I'm fascinated with how much money bloggers and webmasters are making nowadays, I've created a similar list -- a random sampling of people making money on the net.

FIND OUT HOW MUCH BLOGGERS REALLY MAKE ONLINE -- CHECK OUT THIS NEW WEBSITE ABOUT MONEY-MAKING ONLINE CALLED 50 OVER $50K... by Paula Neal Mooney The time has come. The time is now. Paula N. Mooney will you please publish that list now?! (Yes, I fancy Dr. Seuss' iambic pentameter.) My WebMaster blest me with a viral post called "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries," and the response was so wonderful, here lies an update. It's bigger and better than ever before with more pics, and double the amount of bloggers, webmasters, domainers, affiliate marketers (or a smidgen of some or all of those titles) and their reported incomes. How Much Do You Make? Money is funny. The abundance of it, the lack of it, the subject of cash in general gets attention. While some invoke their choice not to post their online income nor discuss it at all, I've always been of the Suze Orman mindset ever since I read her first book. Suze encourages people to talk ab

UPDATE: PLEASE CLICK THIS LINK TO DIGG THIS STORY AND TELL DIGG TO PLAY FAIR... by Paula Neal Mooney Many of us know the power of Digg.com, dreamed up by Kevin Rose, who touted it as a "user driven" site that says it allows the general public to determine the stories they want to see make it to the front page by voting for interesting articles they find across the web. The more votes the public gives an article, the better chance it should have to make it to the front page. Theoretically... The power of Digg's front page Digg.com -- according to Alexa -- is now more popular than The New York Times. Getting one of your articles or blog posts to the front page of Digg.com will get your website seen by plenty of eyes.
