I will be offline for most of the three-day weekend, helping the MSG move into his new digs.  Have a wonderful holiday, and see you soon!

The bitTiorrent route is of much higher video quality (and thus much slower download) but there are legal and ethical issues you get to play with going that road -- you're the librarian, so you'll know those issues already.

ABC is making episodes available for FREE download via their website. It includes commercials, but then, I suffered through the commercials when I watched it last night. Check ABC's website today - it should be there. Don’t fret! ABC is making episodes available for FREE download via their website.
