The Discovery channel may be a nerd’s choice for TV, but certainly not for online entertainment.
In the past, the Discovery Channel has been notorious for only sharing clips of their shows and removing unauthorized uploads on video sites like YouTube.
More recently, however, they added a FullEpisodePlayer to their site which allows users to watch commercial free shows.
Shows Available
If you have a high-speed connection and some time on your hands, you can see the shows below for free. But don’t get too excited, there are only 2-4 episodes available per show. Not only that but they have time limits too.
- Flip That House – Until 4.13.08
- Last One Standing – Until 01.17.08
- Mythbusters – Until 1.16.08
- Dirty Jobs – Until 03.12.08
Just in case the Discovery Channel decides to be inconsiderate and remove all MythBusters episodes on the 16th, I’m providing an alternative source. You can view miscellaneous episodes here on a Dailymotion channel.
