You can always download the show via a Torrent site...we do that for everything we miss on TV.

[fun4Ds]

im gonna try to see this, im not a big t.v.fan i dont mean to be mr. negetive here, but somehow they only seem to say what they want ya to hear. or worse yet every one will be running around knowing all about swing ing from what they learned from the show. and we will have to adhear to some social new rules.and here comes the drama, a hole lot of people pointing their fingers cause they know all obout it.

somehow im seeing the future yes you to can be a swinger for $39.99 we will send you the total package.

o.k i am being a little negitive here so ill try to catch it and be open minded. Surrender

Mr. WS

If you pop onto their website they have a list of networks and satillite providers who carry it.
I think they piggy back on another provider, not sure, but they don't appear to have shows running all day long.
worth a quick peek if you are intersted.
Your friend,
Prettylady

PS I emailed to ask if they run it on the website after the show airs.
Will let you know if they answer or not

Beleive it or not I (Russ) am a big fan of this show (LOL). I guess I just want to know about the secret lives of women!! Last night they did a show on fetishes and hard to believe but all they do is let women tell thier stories without any commentary from a moderator. So if this swinger show is like any they have done in the past it show be pretty fair-minded and non-judgemental.

[mrs good times]

I too like this show and watch it when I remember. I wanted to see the fetish episode and missed it. I am curious to see how swingers will be portrayed because the other episodes I have seen have all had a positive spin.

[poster_guy03]

I've seen few episodes of this show and have found them to be pretty open minded and non-judgemental as well. I learned of the Swingers show after watching the Fetish show, which I found to be pretty informative and balanced.

For the folks on Swingersboard you'll be happy to know that WE has a discussion forum at their website.

http://www.we.tv/talk?pt=1&cid=281

After the broadcast of the show I visited that forum and found individuals featured on the show doing postings. There was pretty good audience participation in tha forum and (as of last night) it was 99% positive!

Watch the show and jump in with your comments.

[TNT]

We always try and catch this show...last night it was on...women robbing the cradle and I just couldn't handle watching it so we turned the channel. The fetish show was very interesting. We've got the DVR set up to record the swinger episode so we'll definitely be giving our thoughts on how well it's done.

Thats it, you just earned more bonus points with me.

[Mr. Truelove]

And for those of you that don't know. What is a torrent.

Definition
BitTorrent is a method used to transfer files from on person to another.

History-Then
In the past, file transfers would happen person to person. If I sent something to Amanda69 at 10 kb/s then they would download it at 10kb/s.

Now
However, BitTorrent has made it so each file is broken up into tons of little peices. As you download these files you are automatically uploading those peices to other people even if you haven't finished the entire file yet. You'll still share the ones you have. This is very useful to companies/organizations who wish to release something on a grand scale as they can basically send it to a handful of people and it will multiply from there on out as people download it and resend it.

The Meat
Basically what you'll need is a BitTorrent client. Bitlord and Azureus(I use the latter) are examples of a client. You'll go to some website and download a Torrent File. The torrent file is typically a very small file that has the tracker's information.

The tracker is something your client will connect to that will basically direct the transfer of files from peer to peer and so forth. People that have the file already and let it disperse are called "seeders".

Legality
So far this method of Peer to Peer transfer is perfectly legal. In fact, even if the actual file you wish to download is a pirated movie, the torrent that you download is legal since all it does is tell your client what tracker to connect to.

However, using BitTorrent to download copyrighted works is illegal. Downloaded television shows that this topic covers would fall into the illegal category and therefore I cannot condone downloading it.

More reference material can be locate Here.

As I am sure Julie probably doesn't want me to link torrent sites that would encourage downloading pirated material. So I'll make this as vague as I can. A simple google search for Isohunt or "pirate bay" Might steer a person in the right direction.
