You may already know that the big networks such as NBC, ABC and Fox have plenty of material on the internet to watch, including entire episodes of some of your favorite prime time shows. And it's all perfectly legal and free, except for the cost of your internet connection. What you may not know, however, is that some of the smaller, more obscure, cable networks are getting involved, meaning that the amount of content keeps increasing.
A Blast From the Past on Your Computer
In the United States, TV Land now has many classic episodes of various TV shows available, including Leave It To Beaver, 3rd Rock from the Sun, The Andy Griffith Show, The Beverly Hillbillies, Gunsmoke, Hogan's Heroes and Sanford and Son. In Canada, the Global Television Network has also started doing the same thing with old TV shows such as The Facts Of Life, Dawson's Creek, Who's The Boss?, Good Times and Silver Spoons.
You may remember Silver Spoons, which first made its NBC debut in 1982, as a sitcom about a rich kid played by a very young Ricky Schroder. Of course, this was long before he appeared in NYPD Blue. Arrested Development's Jason Bateman also appeared as Ricky's friend in the first couple of seasons and in case you're trying to do math in your head, they would have only been 12 and 13 respectively.
