How do I watch Canadian TV in the US?

10 years ago

I'm dying to watch "The Social" this week, but I'm in the US and it's blocked on my computer. Sure, they let me see the commercial, but not the show; doesn't seem very "social" lol. I guess the US is afraid it'll turn me polite!

Anybody know how I can watch that blocked foreign media?

the opposite is also true, I'll be curious to find out how to go around this, I know there are broadcasting laws for a reason.

Get a VPN that allows it to appear that your computer is in Canada.

I want to see the guest host.

VPN? Excellent. I will look into that, thanks, terriks.

BP, I just checked out some VPNs that have service for several countries, and the highest rated one on this site is FREE. http://www.vpnbest10.com/compare-vpn

That's all I know, but I hope you can find a way to see the show you want.

Do those work for Canadians to watch US TV, too?

They should work for Canadians who want to watch US TV.

I haven't actually used a VPN for the purpose of watching TV that's only available in another country, but used one when I traveled to China to use sites like Google and Facebook that are blocked there.

It's the name of the VPN service I have used for five years. Love it!
