The Ultimate TV Search Engine Opens Its Doors to the Public

GeekSugar — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 10:57:34 PST

Here's a word you're going to be hearing a lot of - Clicker! I know I often bombard you with the names of sites that stream TV shows and movies online, but now you can throw all of that knowledge out the window because a new streaming site called Clicker aggregates practically all of the shows across the web into one location.

According to TechCrunch, Clicker also pulls in Amazon Video on Demand and Netflix's Watch Instantly content (which you still have to pay for!). The site already has 400,000 full-length TV episodes (and growing), and its easy to use search feature toolbar is another reason to check it out.

BBC Introduces The iPlayer: Free TV On The Net

GeekSugar — Mon, 30 Jul 2007 04:00:58 PDT

Brits have totally lucked out this week because the BBC has just launched the "on-demand" iPlayer, which will enable viewers to choose from 400 hours of programs, including hit shows such as "EastEnders," "Doctor Who" and "Planet Earth."

According to The New York Times the player is free and takes about thirty minutes to download an hour-long show. Programs cannot be saved permanently and will be automatically deleted after viewing or after thirty days.

Unfortunately, it will only be available to people living in Britain who have computers that run on the Microsoft XP operating system. Somewhat like the streaming service ABC now offers, but with much more variety, easier to use, and a cleaner sleek interface.

Benedict Cumberbatch Calls Sherlock a Great Dane & More Revelations

Kelly Schwarze — Sun, 13 May 2012 17:46:08 PDT

Sherlock's season two US premiere last week brought in a staggering 3.2 million viewers on PBS stations around the country, double that of member stations' average primetime broadcast, confirming that the clever British interpretation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic sleuth story may be the best yet.

During a fan preview of the season, we sat down with creator Steven Moffat, producer Sue Vertue, and Sherlock himself, Benedict Cumberbatch, to talk loyal fans, the wonders of the Internet, and which animals are the detective and Dr. John Watson's spirit animals (hint: they're not otters or hedgehogs). Read on for musings from the crew responsible for the wittiest mystery TV's ever seen.

On the Show's Geeky Credibility

Steven Moffat: I'm the resident geek; me and Mark (Gatiss, Sherlock co-creator) are the geeks. We started all this because we admitted to each other that we liked the Nigel Bruce/Basil Rathbone movies; you're not meant to like those ones, but we loved them.

On Fans Watching Sherlock Before Its US Debut

Steven: People aren't going to wait anymore.

Benedict: It's a carrot and stick thing. You know real fans do it because they just really want it and they don't want to ruin it [with online spoilers].

Check out what the trio have to say on those oh-so-plentiful Sherlock Internet fan memes after the jump.
