If your favorite TV show is being shown in another country and the latest episodes won’t come until after three months in your country, don’t despair. There are some few tricks that can be done to be able to watch your favorite TV shows online, absolutely free! Here’s how.

Network Channels

Before trying anything else out, check the show’s network channel to see if it is accessible. Most networks upload the latest episodes a few hours after the episode was aired on television. You may need a fast internet connection, as most network channels have streaming videos that require a fast download speed.

However, keep in mind that most network channels only show videos to within certain areas or countries. If you’re living in a country different from the network’s home country, you may need to seek out other options.

Independent Television

Websites like Hulu.com, MegaVideo, Veoh, Crunchyroll and Youtube host videos that are uploaded by users. All you have to do is simply search them up and check the results. However, don’t be surprised if the resolution quality of these videos are poor, as these websites tend to lessen them to take up less space on their servers.

A word of advice: To watch the latest episode of your favorite TV show, leave a few minutes before checking these websites. Users need time to download and upload the episodes for you to find them. It may also be a little frustrating because these videos don’t actually show the whole episode, and instead link you to websites that promise to show you the episodes if you sign up for an account. Don’t be frustrated. Just keep on looking, and you’re bound to find one channel that gives you the full episode with no exchange of information whatsoever.

Television Show Indexing Sites

Some websites like Surfthechannel.com are solely dedicated to indexing the latest episodes of your favorite TV shows. How do they get away with it? These websites do not actually host the online videos of these TV shows, but have links to places where these episodes are hosted, like Youtube or Veoh. Think of these sites as a huge page of links taking you to your favorite TV shows.

Fan websites for the show sometimes also do the same thing as these indexing sites, so checking them out can yield fruitful results as well.
