ABC TV Online 2010

In 2009, Spreety TV Online produced a video of tips and tricks for watching ABC TV shows online. Given all the rapid advances in online TV, it was time to update the video with a 2010 version.

ABC TV shows are split across four different sites: ABC, ABC News, ESPN, and Disney. For the latter two, see the other Spreety videos covering those. As for ABC and ABC News, most of the shows are online within a day of air date.

Arguably, the online TV experience for ABC TV shows is more complete than what is available on the old TV. An interesting example is the show Lost, where additional podcasts, webisodes, decoding the mysteries, previews, and enhanced episodes are available online. Much of that content is rarely available on ABC TV stations.

Possibly a negative for ABC TV online is that after every ad, one must click an extra button to re-maximize the screen. As a positive, one of the ads in particular allows you to skip it.

Among the ABC TV shows online are 20/20, ABC World News, The Bachelor, Better Off Ted, Brothers & Sisters, Castle, Cougar Town, Dancing with the Stars, The Deep End, Desperate Housewives, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Find My Family, FlashForward, The Forgotten, General Hospital, Good Morning America, Grey’s Anatomy, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Lost, The Middle, Modern Family, Nightline, Primetime, Private Practice, Scrubs, Shark Tank, Supernanny, This Week, Ugly Betty, V, and The View.

There are also clips from many more shows.

“If people just knew how much TV is online, there would be mass abandonment of the old TV”, according to Spreety co-founder Ron Laughton. “We created Spreety to educate people about the legal places to watch free TV online.”

The Spreety video is on YouTube titled “ABC TV Online 2010″. Spreety TV Online : Watch TV Shows Online Free was released in 2008, and has had over 3 million visitors since.
