To Cow: other big shows are... Prison Break, House, Gericho, The Closer, 24, SmallVille.
You'd do well with those I am sure... the writers are just coming off strike here, so people will be wanting to catch up on the last few episodes from last year prior to seeing new ones!
Get on it man!

I love lost and always watch it more than once to see I pick anything new up that I might have missed with the first viewing!

I'd planned to do something similar but then a UK company that didn't host content, only linked to it was busted by the cops. It's still to go through the courts yet but I'm wary. Still free streaming is huge, if you want to expand on it then I still own the domain www.onlinetv.im that I bought, just drop me a line if you're interested.

A great idea and if you're monitor is pointing the right way you can always watch it on your lunch with some ear phones plugged in. Nice idea.

Like the others said, great idea. Only caveat is probably the legality of it in terms of copyright.

So what other shows are you kids into these days?

Awesome idea. Lost is one of the best shows ever. I do not think that I have ever been into a show this much. With intertube technology it is getting so easy now-a-day to stream high quality content. I see in the future that cable companies will no longer be needed to promote TV shows. I think it will all be done online. Same with music and upcoming artists. Great job, thanks.

Good for me 'cos I get Lost on TV about three weeks after the show airs and my net speed is too slow for torrents!

wannabeMogul: the ABC streams are only available to people in the US. The rest of the world can't run them.

Nice one, Cow. Do you think that you will come across any copyright issues or only the video uploading site will be liable? :mrgreen:

This is an interesting idea. Any other ideas to monetize other than adsense?

Also, I think it critically needs a "Email Me When The Next Episode Is Up" option. Easily done with an RSS Email Submit. But if it were me, I would go with something a little more robust. Awebber or OneShoppingcart maybe as an auto responder. That way you can send them other emails, about new shows being launched. And possibly other affiliate options ("Put Lost on your iPod. Buy Here" type email).

But it's def. an interesting start. Good luck!

Interesting idea. I have often streamed shows online lately.

Just curious, but do you have a plan in place for diverting traffic from ABC.com where they already show the lost episodes with commercial sponsorship?

The ABC.com Web player is pretty popular and high in search results. Can a WordPress blog with SEO hope to overcome that to be one of the higher results? or are you shooting for more of a word of mouth movement?

Not an original idea, but definitely some money in it. Good luck with it!
