The Battlestar Galactica short webisodes began airing yesterday. Check it out, then check back every Tuesday and Thursday for updates.

Are these the ones that are disabled for non-US viewers?

Dunno. Have you tried?

Yeah, it goes as far as 'Your movie will start playing after a short advert' then stops, and won't do anything else. And I don't know if it is my internet connection, browser, or if these are the things I'd heard some rumour about them being disabled for international viewers.

I think they're disabled for non-US viewers. Don't know why, other than perhaps it's aan arrangement with whatever network broadcasts the show in the UK.

Or the adverts. When we get shows from america, like live sporting events, that have those pop-up ads onscreen for american products? They get fuzzed out, because US adverts aren't cleared to run in the UK.

All the more reason to get rid of the stupid bloody annoying pop-up adverts.

the UK misses out on a lot of extra content involved with things like this - apparently, theres a lot of spoof commercials in the US broadcasts of lost which have never been shown in the UK.

well, you could always either use a US-based proxy, or wait til they appear on a naughty torrent site...

You have to be in the USA to watch them on the official site. Only way round it is to use a proxy.

However, both are now on Youtube, which makes viewing much more simple.
