These are some helpful hints for those who are not especially knowledgeable of how to find テレビ shows on the Internet.

During my days as a college freshman, far away from home, I often was stuck with a lot of free time (Especially on the holidays). It is then I discovered youtube. I found it amazing I could watch all these テレビ shows I just loved back home(where I had Satellite)! Of course, eventually YouTube merged with Google and took down many of these beloved shows. Therefore, I looked elsewhere: Where might I get my 次 fix for X-Files, Smallville, または The Office, または watch ロスト season 3 after it already ended? I did not have a lot of money to be spending on DVD Season box sets.
The result is a wide としょうかん, ライブラリ of video sharing sites and the methods to find what I’m looking for. So let’s start at the beginning:

Television Shows

How do I word my search?
If あなた are searching for a Live-action 表示する (that is, not カートゥーン または anime), this method is suggested:

First, remember these common 動画共有 websites:

www.youtube.com
www.sidereel.com (A website where people place リンク to episodes from many sources)
www.dailymotion.com (Lots of French subs)
www.divx.com (a lot of Spanish and german subs - high quality videos)
www.veoh.com
www.movie6.net/tv/
link

(Fanpop is also a great place to find videos!)

Now how to word your search. Say あなた are looking for ヤング・スーパーマン Season 1 Episode 2 : Metamorphasis. This might seem like a logical way to search. However, there are several different ways the people who アップロード these 動画 will word the titles and tags.
The other common ways are this:
ヤング・スーパーマン 1x02
ヤング・スーパーマン S01E02
ヤング・スーパーマン 102
Metamorphasis

あなた may think あなた cannot find a particular video, but sometimes あなた can only find it によって wording it correctly.
**File-Hosting Websites**
Now, some テレビ shows simply are too old または not 人気 enough to be found on these 動画共有 sites.
Another method I have found very useful is going to www.google.com and typing in
‘Smallville 1x02 Megaupload’
Adding megaupload brings up several results that include megaupload リンク of this episode. However, あなた will have to download the file instead of watching a stream.
あなた may also try other file-hosting sites such as sendspace または rapidshare instead of megaupload.
****
Anime-

Finding アニメ is tricky, because it comes in many formats (Japanese dub または RAW, English subbed and English dub).
Good video-streaming websites to find アニメ on are:
www.anime6.org
www.veoh.com
www.sidereel.com
www.divx.com
www.youtube.com

Download websites:

There are many others I’m sure but these are the ones that I’ve used.

While アニメ have ‘seasons’ typically they are labeled によって the total episode number. Even if an アニメ is in its 秒 season, episode 2, it will often read “<Anime> Episode 28”

Example: Death note episode 2: Showdown
Terminology to 検索 with:
Death note 2
Death note 02
Death note Showdown
02 showdown


*Depending on what type あなた are looking for, also add : RAW, Eng sub, Eng dub. Sometimes this is not necessary as the アニメ only comes in 1 または 2 types.
*You can also use the megaupload method to find episodes.




Some new sites i've found since 書く this article:

www.livevideo.com
www.gofish.com
www.surfthechannel.com
www.videostored.com
www.megavideo.com <--This is a great one!

I have found that sometimes it is difficult to find 動画 of 映画 または tv shows because the user who uploaded it masked the video name によって putting gibberish.
My アドバイス is to try less obvious タグ (Such as Will smith to find the movie "I am Legend", または IAL --the abbreviation of the movie name) and then sort your results によって LENGTH.
If the full movie is on the website あなた will see it near the beginning. This also works when looking for アニメ または tv shows--most are around 22-24 分 long. Hour-long tv shows are 41-44 分 long.
