Heroes

"Heroes" is one of my favorite shows to watch. When at home, I watch it every Monday. This changes a little bit here. It's on Tuesday mornings, and I had planned to watch it on ABC.com. This did not turn out to be as easy as I had thought.

You can't watch anything on ABC.com if you're not in the United States. Sadly, they cannot tell through osmosis that I'm actually an American, so a little window pops up and says "Sorry, you suck at life and because you're in Korea, we're not going to let you watch your favorite show."

So I downloaded a program which lets you download stuff. Yea, that's how I'm describing it. So I use this program to download Heroes, only none of the copies work. I can't find a decent one. I then scour the internet to find any random site that will let me watch my favorite show. No such luck. It's now Thursday night.

Lucky for me, I work with a guy who loves downloading stuff, and can somehow find anything. I mean anything. So, on this Thursday night, I had to have a Canadian bring his entire hard drive to my apartment, load the shows into my computer, where I then had to use a downloaded media player to watch two hours of my favorite show.

Korea F*ing SPARKLING.

  1. Hi I am in Korea too and I love Heroes. I managed to watch it through tvshack.net you might need mozilla but it's really good quality and you just watch it straight away no need to download anything.
