No you are not. I watched two episodes of the most recent season on the PBS site..I had hoped they woudl eventually post the others..but as you have seen they have not. My kids tell me these things are normal, sites put things on for short periods and then remove them. As far as downloading movies..my kids do it all the time, download it to the computer's memory, but someone else will have to tell you how.

The prior seasons had been on Amazon video. Have you looked there?

At one point, someone posted a BLOG that had links to Downton Abbey and Call the Midwife that could be streamed even when they were not on the PBS site. I thought I had it book marked, but I cannot find it now :( They had episodes, I think, even that had not aired in the US yet. Does anyone remember what that was? It was a not a blog you would have thought would have had the streaming video links (i.e. it wasn't like a TV Blog).

Thank you Lascatx and arcy. Yes I checked Amazon but I don't want to pay for an entire season; I only want the finale of season 5 as I was able to view the other episodes on PBS and the blog/site Beagles mentioned (British perhaps?). I also searched for it, Beagles, and it doesn't appear to be around any longer.

So, when downloading tv series and movies it is typically done via Amazon?

beagles - I remember the post but I can't pull it up. Kswl gave detailed instructions on signing up for the site. About the only thing I remember is that you have to give a zip code (or maybe it was an area code) for some place in England.

I think this is the thread you're looking for?

Old thread

olychick, that post was not it, but thanks! I did download that tunnelbear thing from that thread but it looks like you have to pay for it if you use substantial amounts of data over the IP from the other country, unless I'm not understanding something.

This was a blog, it had other non-TV related stuff, but they basically just had links on a particular series of threads to both Call the Midwife and Downton Abbey,

All the episodes you want to see here?

PBS Masterpiece link.

edited to say : Never mind, I think you can only watch episode previews at the link.
