Spending my first 10 months in Japan staying in a hotel, with a very poor selection of English television channels, i had to rely heavily on the internet to download programs. It`s amazing what you`ll watch when you have to, and Japanese TV has some merit, but every now and then i needed a fix of western television.
These days the internet is a veritable goldmine for the latest programs that have only just aired i the states being available for download, literally within hours.
I got right into several programs, mainly The Entourage and Prison Break although ther were several others like The Girls Next Door and Amercian Idol …. like i said, sometimes you need to watch western TV and you take what you get!
I write this post while i wait for Prison Break Season 3 Episode 1 to download, about 20 minutes done so far with 10 to go … if you`re not into Prison Break then do yourself a favour and download series 1 and 2 … it`s brillaint and watching at your leaisure is the only way to go.
If you are up to date with Prison Break then here`s the general info on where the stories at.
“Just when they thought they were out, they are pulled back in – for the most dangerous escape ever. Prison Break Season 3 finds Michael Scofield wrongly incarcerated in Sona, a hellish Panamanian prison where there are no rules, no guards and no escape.
Michael soon discovers that he was purposely placed in Sona to engineer another daring and seemingly impossible prison break – this time in order to free Whistler, a mysterious inmate hiding within the prison’s sewer system. Sona (inspired by the actual Carandiru Prison in Brazil) is unlike any American prison. A murderous riot among the inmates has driven all guards and authorities from the premises, leaving the prison with its own warped hierarchy and code of ethics created and ruled by vicious drug kingpin Lechero. Once inside Sona, Michael must avert Lechero’s suspicions and wrath while protecting himself from a trio of enemies: Alex Mahone, the renegade FBI agent who was revealed to be involved with The Company; Brad Bellick, the former Fox River prison-guard-turned-hapless-bounty-hunter; and the one-handed, homicidal pedophile Theodore “T-Bag” Bagwell- making Michael’s plans for escape even more difficult and complicated.
With the tables turned this time around, Lincoln must work outside the prison walls to help pull off the escape, as well as rescue his kidnapped son, LJ, and Michael’s true love, Sara Tancredi. In Panama, Lincoln is reunited with fellow Fox River escapee Fernando Sucre and becomes involved with two beautiful women who will prove to be instrumental to the break – Susan B. Anthony, a cool and deadly operative for The Company; and Sofia, Whistler’s innocent Girlfriend who is unaware of the danger she is about to encounter. With the clock ticking, Michael and Lincoln must figure out a way to reunite with their loved ones, bring down The Company and engineer the most thrilling prison break yet.”

well i’m glad you didn’t get use to Japanese variety Shows. even though i find them hilarious. I just need shows with a storyline somethings.
heres a tip on wordpress.. go to options then go to permalinks and change to custom to read “/%postname/”
so it can read your post title rather than /?p=12
hope it helps.
i meant /%postname%/
Cheers, i’ll get on to that …. WorkPress is proving to be a steep learning curve … my first shot at changing it has already presented another issue with write access to the .htaccess file.
