    Torrents are not exactly ever a help to a show.

    They cause lower ratings and as such help for shows to be cancelled

    not really true, kinda true, depends on where you live.

    i used to think like you and when i used to download something when said episode aired on UK/Irish TV i would turn on my tv and walk away (because i mean who wants adds?)

    anyway i used to think that was my part done and my ratings still counted because my tv was on for the premier, i just watched it several months/weeks or in some case over a year before it came to Irish TV.

    But sadly it does not work that way in Ireland or anywhere. There is currently no working way of judging ratings, they currently use the flawed Nielsen rating system. It does not record everyone just a% of the population split into various demographics - too boring to go into detail but im sure there is a good wiki somewhere...

    Yeah saw the pilot a couple of months ago. She's brilliant in it! Series looks quite promising too. Also they announced that they're doing another Terminator trilogy (the buzz-word of the moment) so maybe she'll have a part to play in that too. Here's hoping!
    Also Wash was in 3.10 to Yuma.

    I know that the ratings are not directly taken into account but if they could count the amount of downloads and detract them from their calculated ratings then it could have an impact.

    Look at the box set of Firefly, if we had all downloaded it then we would not have gotten our BDM
