[Blindtlk] [OT]viewing Old TV Shows

[Judy Jones]

Try hulu.com.  It is accessible enough, for watching purposes, has a lot of 
the episodes you mentioned, although haven't seen the You Are There episode. 
It's the best for TV watching of the old episodes.  I have used it for 
several years.  You can build a queue and get notices on episodes that are 
expiring, or can have your favorites automatically added to your queue.

Netflix has great older TV shows, and we watch unlimited online for $7.99 
monthly.
