well the fact the original was posted "on august 07, 2007", and that this site
had just about all of the pre-airs... and months ago. this is very old news.
also the bionic women was leaked to. it had a death girl and the arm shot not
done yet. when i saw it on release date. i was all were her death sister.
you're an idiot. the original post wasn't telling people about pre-airs and
screeners that are available for download, or even that there is such a thing,
and it certainly wasn't directing people toward the show. it was about a news
item about where one of those pre-airs came from, namely an employee of the
production company that made it.
maybe you should take the time to read a post before being in such a hurry to
criticize.

i don't think he was trying to let us know that there was a pre-air of a new
show. he was posting a news story about where one of the pre-airs came from.
the story may be a couple of months old, but i don't remember seeing it here.
then again, it's not really surprising and not really news to me, but maybe to
someone.
the basic point--that tv may benefit from bt technology--is still pretty
relevant, i think. personally, i wonder if tv is hurt or helped by it, and i
really wonder if some shows are helped (or hurt) more than others. that's a
much more interesting conversation than "that was posted months ago,"
i'm-smarter-than-you bs.
well i look at it this way, who else is leaking them, if it isn't direct
from 'the industry', then it is coming from a part of it anyway. the only real
question is which part of the industry, and to be honest, as long as they are
coming do we really care? regardless my original point stands.
the point is, most of this is speculation that's been circulating
since...forever. it's been four years since the first time i was in the whole
preair leak thing - and ever since then i've been part of the debate.
personally, i think there are too many concurrent leaks for them all to be not
directly connected to the industry. imo, it would make sense for pilots to be
leaked; it creates a bigger buzz before the actual first-air.
see, that's a much more useful and interesting response.
what about shows like cavemen where there is a huge difference between the pilot
and the pre-air? if you make that many changes, you must think that it is to
make the show better. releasing something of a lower quality doesn't really
make sense at all, but it's getting out somehow.
