Post by Darren ThorntonThis has been a weird year for weather. Louisiana's already
gotten more than its share. We had a tornado in May, then Gustav in
the fall. Both made the photos I took after Katrina look tame. We're
about two hours from New Orleans.
How long are the online episodes available? Is there a legal
way to tape them for viewing later? Does anyone know the length of the
last episode? That's when you take out the commercials.
Sincerely,
Darren Thornton
The online eppies usually only have a couple of commercial breaks lasting no
more than a minute. The show itself will be about 44 minutes with a couple
more minutes of commercials. I don't believe it is possible to download
them from the NBC site. Maybe from iTunes, but they charge a fee for their
programming, usually a couple of bucks. I don't know if they carry ER.
Hulu is another good site to find TV shows you've missed. Once again, I
don't think they'll let you copy the show, as this is copyrighted material,
Shows are available online at NBC's website for months after they air.
Currently, every single eppy from this season is there, I suspect they will
remain there until sometime after the finale in March as TPTB are hoping
that, as they begin plugging the finale, former viewers who haven't watched
recently, will go online and catch up on this season and come back for the
big finish.
