SyFy Rewind starts as a black screen but if you're patient, loads. I haven't investigated the reason for that but suspect that it could be the amount of flash, etc, that is being loaded with the page. Basicly it seems to not be well scripted (my opinion), but it does work.

Those other links want me to be in the US, but I am in NL, the ziggytv link works in M$ mediaplayer after downloading some activeX stuff, the first one that streams SyFy for me in NL.
Now I want SyFy in PCLos, I hate those blue screens of death and stack overflow from M$.

SyFy.com rewind and hulu don't deliver outside the US

Other options ?

Sorry, all my European friends - that sux! Hulu has come a long way in a very short time, and for the price of watching a short commercial or two, it is totally worth it.
