Any good torrent site for TV Series.
Since Demoniod is dead, good torrents are hard to find.
Thanks.

Yeah, there are a few. However, since the demise of Demonoid I must have
downloaded 4 or 5 high-traffic files from other sources that were either
fake or needed proprietary software to play. (I googled both "players"
required, both got lots of hits mentioning spyware and worse).
I never got a bad file from Demonoid. I live NZ where we pay for every MB we
(slowly) download. Getting fake files is not only a PITA, it's expensive and
time-consuming. If it weren't for the fact that most TV shows take a year or
more to get here it wouldn't be worth the expense and effort.
(Series 2 of the excellent Scottish drama "Sea of Souls" started on NZ TV
last night. I discovered today it screened in the UK 35 months ago. Yes, a
month shy of three years. I'd not looked for it, thinking that series one
was a one-off, especially as 6 months ago it was re-screened here. I'm gonna
have to download the rest of series 2 and all of series' 3 and 4 now, if I
can find them. In NZ, progammes (especially UK ones) are butchered to fit a
commercial "hour". Our "hour" is similar to a US hour, around 42 minutes.
However, I download Top Gear and it runs for an hour uninterrupted, when
shown in NZ it runs for a commercial "hour". All that good progaming on the
cutting room floor....)
Sure, some of the alternatives to Demonoid have membership and a place to
leave comments but I find very few people actually *do* say if the file is
bogus. I've even seen feedback claiming that something is bogus and it turns
out it's from a different capping group, trying to get folks to download
their stuff instead.
I hope that Deimos manages to get Demonoid back on line. I miss it muchly.

TTFN,

I'm currently collecting episodes of Numb3rs and Dexter from the
above-mentioned sites. Haven't had a bad one yet.
I echo that too Shaun. I'm in NZ too and TV shows are a bitch. I
actually have a few I got given and some I downloaded. If you want some
I can burn em for you mate. About 100 gig all up and 5-6 Top Gear
feature length specials. Some funny shit in them. Easier to send dvds at
times in NZ to share stuff LOL. I was given enough to fill 2 320 gig
portable drives and havnn't downloaded much lately.
TV series you can have copies of are
Trailer Park Boys all 6 series and 3 specials and movies. (we on series
3 here are we? but it hasn't been on for ages)
Weeds series 1 and 2.
CSI season 2
DragonballZ 16 series most episodes
Family Guy seasons1-5 (some incomplete)
Futurama seasons 1-5 (some incomplete)
Jackass season 1
Mythbusters season 1-5
Porno valley season 1
Robot chicken 21 episodes
Simpsons 10 assorted seasons
Southpark seasons 1-11 (some incomplete)
Supernatural seson 1
The Office (UK) season 1 and 2 plus Ricky Gervas Extras 5 episodes
Asssorted Sopranos
And abouut 50 gig of other shows that are on a drive that I lent to mate
and can't for life of me remember what is on them LOL.
If you want any sing out and I'll burn some for you onto dvds. I'm after
weeds season 3 if you have it too <g>
I had email for you last nite and thought I'd sent it but is on other
lappie and sitting in outlooks out box no doubt so will get that off to
you as I'd promised.
Hope all's well with you.

I feel your pain. I used Demonoid almost exclusively for nearly 3
years. The fantastic community there was the key to it's success. I
hope Demonoid comes back, but if not, we don't have to let the
Demonoid goodness die with it.
- When you download something, leave a comment as to the file quality,
good or bad. Encourage others to do the same.
- Good private sites are a bitch to get into. Give a brother an
invite where others won't. Encourage others to do the same.
- If you see some clueless n00b floundering, toss him a helpful tip or
two instead of flaming. Encourage others to do the same.
This was the Demonoid way.

Exactly. The trick is finding a release group that you like and
sticking with them.
It is, thanks mate.
I have all that I want of the stuff you list above, thanks though.
Be sure to include your address in that email, I have all 15 episodes of
Weeds season 3 here, I'll put 'em on a DVD for you and send it off. Have you
seen Supernatural 2? I'm up to S3E7 so far. :-)
Cheers,

My biggest problem is my slow download speeds, using several sites to find
what I want and queuing torrents. Often, by the time I get the file (and
sometimes I don't watch it for a while) I forget where I got the torrent
file from so can't leave a comment. Also, because of the preceeding, chances
are it'd be too late to be of help to others by then.
> - Good private sites are a bitch to get into. Give a brother an

Nah. Like you say, they're a bitch to get into. Most of them hold you
responsible for your invitees. If in fact you *were* my brother then I
*might* invite you, if I was sure that you'd keep a good ratio and not break
the forum rules. Otherwise fuggedaboutit.
> - If you see some clueless n00b floundering, toss him a helpful tip or

If said clueless n00b hasn't taken the time to Google or read previous posts
here, then why should I use my precious time (you only live once, every
minute I "spend" is one I'll never get back) helping them when they're not
prepared to use their time helping themselves?
> This was the Demonoid way.
Demonoid was indeed great. However, it wasn't a "benevolent society", fools
were often told that they were fools. Sometimes being truthful is the best
thing you can do for a person.

I try to always leave a "Thanks for sharing" comment when starting the
download. This way I can more easily identify the torrent when I want
to add a quality comment later.

I am certainly not promoting randomly passing out invites like candy.
However, I successfully "invited" a number of good net citizens to the
Demonoid community. There is some risk of course, but a little care
and common sense can minimize this.

Thank you for providing a perfect example of the attitude that does
not make for good community.

Finally, the compassionate comment I would have hoped for from a
fellow Demonoider.
> Shaun.
I keep all the shows and store them on hard drives.
Everything i am about to list i have ever episode of and am currently
up to date with the USA.
I am sure i will forget many shows but also have most movies as
well.... here is my atempt of telling you the series i have if you
want them. To build trust i will send you 10 dvds full first and you
pay once you have received them. I pay $35aud for 70 blank dvds.
In return, i want you to tape the series 4 of outrageous fortune for
me each week and would love to get my hands on season 3.
Lost,
burn notice
apprentice celebrity
all survivors and nearly every other reality show i can think of
smallville
journeyman (excellent)
k-ville
cane
the unit
ramsays kitchen nightmares (us and uk versions)
october road
gossip girl
Mate, this is pointless writing them all down. I have everything, if i
dont have it, i can download it for you. My allowence is 60gb per
month and speed is 30mb download speed.
Let me know what you want and i will get it for you. In return pay me
for the dvd's at my cost plus shipping and doing the same for me each
week when outrageous fortune starts up.
Please get back to me asap as i have some days of work where i can do
all this. I also have a printer where i print on the dvds so they will
have the proper artwork.
Later.

Ok, thanks but I don't need any of the stuff you list. I download pretty
much all I want. (Journeyman *is* great though huh? Did you see the show the
other guy out of "Rome" (Ray Stevenson) did? "Life Line", a two-part drama.
That was great too.)
Are you a member of Diwana? If not would you like an invite? I see that they
have all of season 1, all of season 2, and a lot of season 3. Personally I
don't watch it. However, my ratio at Diwana is excellent (64.3!!) and I am
prepared to send you an invite. If what you want isn't there they have an
IRC channel and are very helpful.
Does this email work? I hate sending invites off into the bitstream.....
