You can rent them from Netflix up through season 3. Season 4 isn't available yet. I doubt the 4th season is available. If so I'd like to see it too.

they got them at Blockbuster too, but its going to add up to rent them all. At some point it would be cheaper to buy them. Didnt want to sign up for netflix, but maybe ill look into it.

If you do much renting, Netflix is  the way to go. We mostly rent old TV shows that we missed. We average 14 disks/month for $17ish. If you have a PC you can watch some of their stuff instantly. I have a MAC so I can't take advantage of that feature.

If you rarely rent movies it's probably not worth it.

I'm liking it. I'm waiting for the 4th disc of the first season. I may have to use the ABC website. I glanced at it quickly and I'm hoping there is a way to make the show fullscreen.

Last time I used it, I'm pretty sure you could increase video size.

And once you start watching it from the start, you get hooked.  Sorry Dan, you're a goner

watched a few episodes last night. quality is good, just hook it up to my 42" tv and its clear.

The only annoying thing is it wont auto play after comercials. I dont mind the commercials, their short, but it stops playing until you hit the continue button. Now i need longer cabels to move the laptop closer. Or i guess that can be my excersie
