ABC does TV right

The Nine

Last week The Nine, a show about nine people involved in a traumatic bank robbery, premiered on ABC. I don’t really watch too many prime time shows, but I liked the premise and checked it out. This week however, I was at a meeting for the second episode (the show airs Wednesdays at 10pm) and missed it. Luckily, ABC keeps a video archive of their more popular shows online.

Over at ABC.com you can view the current season’s past episodes on The Nine, LOST, and Grey’s Anatomy, among others. It seems other TV Stations offer this too, but I am very impressed with how clean and sleek ABC’s player is. It loads the videos in portions at a time, separated by three 30 second commercial breaks. Then you can resume. You can view this videos at any time after they are added, and it looks like that can be anywhere from 4-24 hours after they air.

So if you miss one of you ABC shows, be sure to go on over to ABC.com and check it out there, assuming of course you have a broadband connection and flash. Later!

    When Is Switching Tools Worth It?

    Bycasabona

    I switch tools, perhaps too much. Over the summer, I switched from Dropbox to Google Drive because they told me the plan I’d been using for my business for a decade suddenly wasn’t for business anymore. I switched from Bonjoro to Senja recently because it cut several steps out of my workflow. And now I’m considering moving from Cal.com BACK to…

  1. I play Dungeons and Dragons on monday nights and miss Heroes in NBC, which by the way is a really good show. I watch it on Tuesday nights on their website. I think that this internet broadcast is the best thing ever. They just better not start charging for it. I doubt they will, since they are broadcast stations.
