I am not sure what to do. The 17th is my b-day and i am so tempted to go to nbc.com and watch the show, but then another part of me wants to wait to see it on my lcd in HD. So I was curious what is everyone else doing.

Wait? :lol: Heck no! I'll be watching it as soon as I know that it's up. Besides, it'll probably look better on my monitor and streamed off Hulu.com than it would on my SDTV. I'll probably watch it a couple times online at least, then watch it next week again. What would be even more awesome is if NBC allowed Amazon to let people download it in a decent quality XVid or Divx file, even with some advertising. Of course that won't happen and even if it's free off iTunes I'm not going to install it, heh.

Hulu is partially owned by NBC so what does it matter?

How ironic...

I was gonna start a thread just like this today to see who was up for watching the early preview :D

cool, you could have the best of both worlds, plug your pc into your lcd if its got a dvi/pc input..sorted.

or watch it on the computer for now and and enjoy it again next week......on the sofa with a bag of chips & a dip & a nice cold beer (or whatever takes your fancy)

BTW, Happy Birthday for tomorrow!

I'll probably end up watching both. The Internet premiere has the distinct advantage of no commercials which is more of a benefit to me than picture quality. I remember watching the first few episodes of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles that way. Plus, it's better that the episodes premiere online before television so that it won't be too torturous to avoid watching it knowing that it's on T.V.

Plus my boss is out of town... so it'll be easier to watch... lol!

I'll watch on hulu, but I'm going into one of our conference rooms and watch on a big TV. I want to simulate a real television broadcast as much as possible.

Nah, US only mate, Im in the same boat as you are, I wanna see it too.

Dont worry though, Im sure there will be plenty of details about the episode on here,probably loads of spoiler tags too, god knows when it will get a UK release date, maybe roughly the same time as Bionic Woman took to get here.

I'm the birdie. I've been told that NBC/Hulu will go up around noon EST. This may be before or after noon - they didn't want to commit on a specific time. I'm guessing Amazon and iTunes would be around then as well.

The conference room I wanted to use is already booked, so I'm looking for another location. But here's the sign I'll be posting outside:

Haha, now I check the News page and see it will also be up on Amazon and they will offer a version to download. I hope it's good quality and in a good format. Perhaps I should do a little more looking.. AAAAANNNNND DONE! Seems like they do and in a format my PMP supports, only thing is it looks like they might be charging for it, hmm... Then again it still says September 24th for the premiere too so maybe it'll change after it's released.
