Missed last night’s season premieres of The Simpson, Family Guy and American Dad? Well have no worries because this site has the torrents for the shows along with many other of your favorite TV shows. Hopefully they can stay up and if so this is a must bookmark resource.
They claim that the shows are captured in HDTV, but since I have yet to see them I cannot vouch for it. Will be interesting to see if I notice any quality changes on my LCD.
I didn’t get a chance to catch the Simpsons or American Dad because I was playing pool and drinking beer, but I am downloading them now and afterwards will be sharing my thoughts in the 350th Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad thread in the forums.
I’ve been downloading tv shows off there for a while now and I can vouch that they are HDTV. Definitely a good source for recently missed episodes or archiving.
Oops, I should clarify that they were captured from HDTV. Of course, they are the original file. File sizes usually hover around 175MB for a “30 minute” show and 350MB for an “hour show”.
CRAP!! LOL Should read…
“…they are NOT the original file.”
new to the whole torrents thing. tivo didn’t record the Simpsons 350th last night. i tried to get to your link (btefnet) with no luck so i tried torrentspy and mininova but nothing comes up under “Simpsons 350th” or under the episode name. how do i go about finding it when i don’t know what it’s called?
You couldn’t get to the site or you couldn’t download the torrent? The site link works.
If you couldn’t get the torrent you need to get download the client and that should get you going.
http://www.btefnet.net/ page won’t load in either Safari or Firefox. i know how to FIND torrents in general, but i can’t seem to find a torrent specifically of last night’s Simpsons episode; i’ve tried “Simpsons 350″ and the episode name “Don’t Fear The Roofer” but no hits on either mininova or torrentspy.
i use Azureus as my BT client and has worked fine in the past.
just out of curiosity, i googled torrent:simpsons and hit ‘i’m feeling lucky’… not exactly what i had in mind.
American Dad was amazingly awful. It’s like a craptacular version of Family Guy. The wife’s face freaks me out.

the bittorrent scene doesn’t seem to care about taking time for labels and episode names. instead, they use seasons and episode numbers. in this case, look for something called “Simpsons.hdtv.lol.16×20″. That’s “Show.Format.Group.Season x Episode”. Most every TV show available follows that or a nearby format.
Thanks for posting about btefnet! I haven’t been able to watch a couple of shows, and now I can catch up. Sweet!
I’m curious, but how quick do the most recent shows usually come up?
btefnet.com looks like it is having issues. worked 6 hrs ago, now loos like the domain nnregistration has been hijacked by vultures.
Mpaa closed it down , that`s it
btefnet is being closed down. I’m having trouble getting any torrents from the TV shows I missed on wednesday. I am gutted
anyone have an alternate site? I have relied on btefnet for too long ;’( sad to see it go.
no, but keep looking! I really need to get a cd to my friends on monday!
Try Pirate Bay, me hearties, they be in Sweden and Mpaa can’t reach them.
The easiest way to find any torrent is at http://isohunt.com/ if your looking for simpsons a search for “simpsons season no.x episode no.” will find any episode you want, the episdoe you are all refering to is 16×19 so just search “simpsons 16×19″
Damn, Btefnet was probably the best site for daily TV torrents…anyone know what happened?
Dyl BTEfnet WAS the best Torrent site, and it’s very sad to see it shut down. Hopefully it’s not shut forever. I am sure there will always be a way to download our fav tv shows with new ideas. :)
hey guys if your looking for a place to download TV torrents use http://www.mininova.org its pretty good, hope u guys find it useful.
Check out http://alaseeri.net/torrents
Great for TV shows – better than btefnet..
Try looking in other places besides the web.
Think about the name of the site you’re talking about.. btefnet.net > BTEfnet > BT Efnet > #BT Efnet > #BT @ Efnet..
IRC anyone? Efnet network.. #BT..
Go there and get the stuff. at least the very latest torrents.
btefnet was sued by the MPAA
search btefnet on google and the zdnet article is like the 3nd link
The Alaseeri site was awesome, hopefully they won’t be sued as well. Now I get to DL all the shows that I’ve missed :D
Thanks x2c189, you made my day
the site doesnÂŽt exist xD
mpaa suk balls

check out http://www.mytvtorrents.com – its pretty good
the nice thing about btefnet was that it had an rss feed. mytvtorrents doesn’t have that and I can’t get that from irc either. Any ideas?
As the topic says it all on real #BT on EFnet:

It’s dead, Jim!| thanks everybody | Don’t forget your towel | No it’s not our website, don’t pay for kazaa tutorials’
[/quote]
mininova, piratebay and few other ‘public’ trackers have all (or almost all) current tv series one may need.
Don’t go to ‘new’ btefnet website – its all scam. peace.
Well guys there is a new plave where one can download TV-torrents. Its quite new and all in HDTV. http://centraltracker.org
Have fun.
Im interested in HDTV stuff, but why are they encoded in 350(ish) lines, doesnt allow to get the most from our equipment. I guess obvious is file size, but i’d die to get some of this stuff in 720p….. Im sure there is a reason – look forward to hearing one. Thx
hi just wondering if anyone has found an america’s next top model 5 ep 1 torrent anywhere? i’ve been to all the usual suspects..incl those above..no luck. got to have my fix! thanks :D
Hi, I’m trying to get Instant Star torrents…. Does anyone know where I could find it??? I really liked the show and would like to see it from episode 1… Thnxs!
im looking for Instant Star Torrents to. have you found any yet?? my tv like borke down so i cant watch it anymore :/
I’ve missed a few shows that I would like to download but notice they ALL always say they are HDTV. I don’t have HDTV yet and wonder if they will be playable on my PC/Windows Media Center anyway. Thanks.
That website is down :(
you will need http://www.myBittorrent.com to download HDTV torrents.

INSTANT STAR TORRENTS!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! if anyone finds one PLEEEEEEAAAAAAASE tell me!!!!
I download my tv shows from http://www.mytvtorrents.com, the best thing about it is how easy it is to use
looking for a place to get old episodes from smallville most specifically i am looking for season 1 episode 11 its called “hug” I have found evey episode other than that one… any suggestions?
Instant starrrr :(
They are NOT true HDTV, there is no way in hell that true HDTV stuff will be available for download, no-one has the resources. A single hour TV show would be like 21,600MB (if file plays at 6,000kbps). I thought downloading 4.5GB was harsh, but 5 times that amount for a TV show you can get @ 350MB? No way! I go to http://www.tvtorrrents.com and I really like them, I signed up before the new rules came in effect and I don’t have 0GBC to start with.
errr…has anyone tried putting 2 and 2 together and saying…. hmmm I want TV shows…and I want to download torrent files….maybe TVTORRENTS.COM GEESH! :) This is one of the better sites for any TV shows out there. Enjoy.
another good one is mininova.org for anything although they take awhile to download, but well worth the wait. And use btbeat.com for music.
And JoJo the files are recorded from HDTV and most have 5.1 surround sound usually around 750mb…quality is much much better than a typical 350mb avi. They also have true HDTV DVD’s whatever the hell those are called.. Quality is superb and they are 8GB and up. I’ve even seen blu-ray discs out there…so PFFT!
You guys need to make some friends and get into a private tracker… these sites have 0-day files, tv shows are uploaded within minutes of airing, always lots of seeders, no bullsh*t with the MPAA so far and the reliability of the files is great. I’ve gotten games/etc on there a week or more before they even hit the shelves. don’t ask me for the invites to ‘em becuz i’m not handing them out.
Still looking for a torrent site that has old tv shows like Boy meets world so i can finish and have my whole collection of the ones i need.
@ doug , sounds like your lookinf for “boy meets pedophile” you fucking freak
INSTANT STAR TORRENTS!! I REALLY NEED SOME! I WANNA TORRENT SEASON 1 and 2!! PLEASE HELP!
I’m also still lookin for Boy meets world
you could do an xvid rip of hdtv (1080i / 720p) for a 42min tv show it would be about 2/3GB in size. I’ve seen 1080i rips of hdtv movies in X264 codec they are about 5GB but the site has gone. in other words an xvid HDTV movie can fit on a standard DVD+R in same way a SDTV movie can fit on a CDR
@ipod your a fucking freak no where did i mention the word pedophile in my post earlier there are you blind or were you born with no eyes dork.
gosh I need instant star torrents too..pls anyone knows where 2 get them?
instant star can be found at the-n.com under the click; unfortunately they didn’t provide all the episodes
that’s where youtube comes in; someone has been uploading them just in time for the new season :D
in the search box type: instant star
for instance, episode 3 in season 2 is titled ‘i fought the law’; at youtube try: instant star fought law
enjoy :P
Most Instant Star episodes can be found on mininova.org
