Ok people, don't panic, but I was looking through Comedy Central's site for the Colbert Report and the video was all like, sorry, we don't provide service to your area.

IS MY WORLD AS I KNOW IT CRUMBING BEFORE MY EYES?!!!!??

Ugh. WTF?! They didn't even advertise except for their own shows on it. So thankful I still have my sling box! Won't be able to watch at work though...

His stuff is also up on watch.thecomedynetwork.ca (along with a ton of other wicked shows)...

Maybe that's not blocked in Korea...give it a shot and let me know if it works Smile

Relax, there are programs you can download to circumvent these kinds of blocks.

I don't download anything and have been watching the Colbert Report and The Daily Show online four times a week for years. I just google the name of the show, click the first hit, scroll down to full episode box, click it and watch. Has this process stopped? This week there were no new shows because it's one of the occasional off weeks. I will post here if I have any problems this tuesday night with monday night's show.

hotspotshield may be good for other things (read PR0N), but it wayyyy too slow with colbert or hulu, at least with my HCN subscription. i can't get through minute 1 without it stuttering.
effemel.

i may have to reconsider my renewal....

Does this really work?

I'd read several months ago that software designed to get around the HULU "not in your region" error message was impossible to circumvent.

Anyone actually using it to watch HULU TV?
