Has Joey flashing everyone, Aisha, DOOL characters on the roof, "I'm also allergic to..."

It was posted to alt.binaries.multimedia earlier today.

Where are these episodes being aired earlier than when the rest of us get to see them???

*Daddy Freddy* :

New episodes usually appear around 14:00 UTC (early morning in the USA), e.g. on BitTorrent.

Nowhere I guess, except maybe Canada ("rest of us" is a bit vague). The episode has to be distributed somehow (e.g. to AFN, without commercials and network logo), most likely via satellite. That signal can be intercepted. Although it's presumably scrambled, someone is always able to descramble and then distibute it, and be it one of the legal recipients.

That's how I'd explain it, but just guessing.

Next new ep.: 921 "TOW the Fertility Test"; 2003-05-01 Transscripts: <http://www.eigo-i.com/> | FAQ: <http://www.friends-tv.org> NBC official: <http://www.nbcmv.com/program_detail.nbc/friends.html> Download eps: <http://www.k-lite.tk>, <http://www.turok.info/eps.shtml> (newest)

That must be it - there's no logo for the entire show. The NBC I know can't go two seconds without that damn peacock popping up.

yep, that's how it appears on the net before it is aired on TV.
