I've just discovered www.tv-links.co.uk - a genius site. Am I slow or is it new? Anyway, it links to full episode videos (located on various servers around the web) which you can watch in your browser for free. Perfect for people like me who can't be bothered with torrents, file sharing and all that jazz.
Below are links to the listings for various Britcom series although check out their site for lots of other series too (including some American shows like My Name is Earl)...
