I watch TV shows streamed over the Internet. It’s like having a DVR without needing a DVR. Mostly I watch on Hulu, but sometimes on SyFy (recent rebranding of SciFi) or CBS or Boxee.

I’ve been watching The Listener recently. Like most shows, the new episodes show up in my queue the day after they aired and I can watch them whenever I like. Recently 5 episodes showed up all at once.

It didn’t take much research to find out that NBC had cancelled it in the US. It a fairly tired premise, so I’m not too surprised, but I’ll likely watch out the half season at my leisure.

Several times during the show Agent Booth hallucinates that Stewie from the Family Guy is talking to him. It’s reasonably humorous, and fits into a longer arc plot line actually.

And I thought I saw some other show with a similar “dead guy in a barrel of wine” episode.  But I can’t recall where.
