I'm a little out of touch with what services are out there these days - basically I want to get up to speed on Fringe, having only watched Season 1, and Season 4 is being aired now!

I know the free services - iplayer/4od etc and Sky to go. Now it looks like Sky don't have the older series up, so know I'm looking at the pay versions.

Having downloaded itunes just to check, it looks like Fringe isn't listed; Amazon VOD appears to be US-only and Lovefilm doesn't have it available on download.

Are there other companies that offer this? I've found blinkbox, which has it, but at twice the price of buying the DVD!

Really I'm just looking to 'rent' the episode, and hoping this is a cheap option than buying them outright. Is it a fool's errand?

(I should say I have Sky TV, and Pipex internet,but no cable options, and not something I'm willing to switch providers for!)

You should try this :

100% legal

What about a DVD rental service, most of them are free for first month so you should be able to watch them all for nothing.

But I agree with you, having to use less than legal services just as usenet and torrents is less than ideal.

Seesaw is pretty good. No Fringe, although you might find it useful for another show in future.

cheers everyone. still a way to go then! I might try lovefilm again, I used to do dvds with them and maybe the VOD is worth it.
