3. What if I miss a show? Can I watch on-line or can I get VHS tapes, DVDs or electronic copies (via streaming or download) of FOX Network Primetime Shows sent to me?

ANSWER:
FOX does indeed have an on-line place to go to see some free streaming episodes of some of your favorite FOX shows (go to fox.com and click on SHOWS, then click on FOX ON DEMAND). You can access free streaming of previously-aired episodes from FOX’s returning hits and new fall primetime series including BONES, PRISON BREAK, "24" and TALK SHOW WITH SPIKE FERESTEN, as well as others, for a limited time. Additional episodes of these and others, be aware that you will have to download (for free) a videoplayer from the site before you can view any of these episodes.

Also note that some FOX-aired shows like HOUSE are produced by studios not directly part of the FOX family (for example, HOUSE is produced by NBC Universal Studios) - therefore, shows like these are less likely to be made available on this site at this time. Perhaps in the future, we'll be able to offer that show and others to the site.

You can also pay for downloads at many various sites, including i-tunes, Amazon.com/unbox, AOL, CinemaNow, Direct2Drive and WalMart.

The FOX Network does not directly send out VHS tapes, DVDs or electronic copies of any of shows, specials or movies that currently air on the Network to individuals, but you may be able to catch a re-run or buy an earlier season of your favorite show on VHS or DVD from an online store or at your local retailer.

You could find a co-worker, friend, family or neighbor who may have made an analog tape or a digital copy (on a DVD or DVR) of the show off-the-air so they could watch it later. You could watch it with them (go on, invite yourself over!) or maybe they will let you borrow their tape or DVD if you promise to return it! Programs that have been recorded off the air cannot be sold or rented or forwarded to you via the internet without authorization from their copyright owner, so don't be fooled if someone offers to sell or rent you a copy they've made - it's an illegal transaction.
