I told my dear sweet Tivo to tape a West Wing episode, and it dutifully did so. At least, it did so according to the data that the guide supplied it. I press play, and even though the screen says it's West Wing, what Bravo actually chose to show in that time slot was the last half of a Celebrity Poker Showdown that I'd already seen.

The episode isn't being re-shown in the current schedule of course. Please note that I'm the guy whose family, thanks to the Tivo, started watching West Wing from the beginning episode 1 when Bravo started re-showing them weekdays at 4pm...

Anyone happen to tivo these things too, and somehow miraculously happen to have Season 4 Episode 6 titled "Game On"? And miraculously have broadband capability for the thing?

I've got the script I can read, but it's just not the same...

If only you could head over to poopli.com, eh?

My DSL is down at the moment or I'd offer to request it for you. You'll probably get it faster through some other method anways.

If you wanted season 5 then you could easily get a torrent for it. Can't see any for season 4 though.

I'm going to want torrents of season 5 anyway, but I'm not sure where to start looking. I don't think Bravo is showing any of season 5 yet, and we're going to want to start watching them as soon as season 4 is over on Bravo. Ideally, we'd somehow (with the help of technology) "catch up" to the first-run broadcast episodes and then just start watching those live on High Def.

Yeah, a simple google on the terms produces a plethora of places where you can download a few episodes from season 5, that one among them, but not the whole thing. Still don't know what I'm going to do about the missing season 4 episode...

I mean, goodness, all I want to do is watch the series in sequence like Bravo was playing them. It's not my fault (nor the Tivo's fault) that the guide data was messed up. It's not like I'm trying to be a pirate or anything. That whole thing with the replayTV requests is looking really logical right now...

You know, I haven't really been correcting anyone's grammar lately, but this is egregious.
