I was thinking to myself that it would be nice to be able to rent tv shows. There are lots of shows like survivor etc that i dont really want to keep. Maybe 25 to 50 cents to rent them, same conditions as a movie!

What do you guys think?
 
I think you should visit the network Web sites, watch the streams, and save yourself 50 cents.
 
I like to own them commercial free. Watching streams on the websites all have commercials. I don't care about saving money by watching them for free.

The OP mentioned renting them. Renting connotates watching them once. So my theory is if you want to "rent," go watch a stream. If you want to buy, sign up for a season pass, buy individual episodes or wait for the DVD/Blu-ray Disc.
