Netflix, YouTube, hulu, iTunes. We primarily use Netflix. We don’t watch shows right away, opting for a whole season to come out and then watching through. And we have discovered a whole world of series, especially if you can handle subtitles.

I discovered Japanese Dramas (and Korean Dramas later) online. And I was pleasantly surprised to see that their shows are essentially mini-series. A season of 11-13 hour long episodes is most common. Besides the interesting facet of being exposed to other cultures (YMMV, but I think it's fun) the format is better than American TV. It's a relatively concise (compared to American TV series that just go on and on until they get canceled) and when it's over you have seen the whole story....Beginning, middle and end. Netflix carries Kdramas along with HULU. Jdramas, I use torrents.
