Episode 1x06 entitled "Muffin Buffalo" has appeared in the newsgroup alt.binaries.multimedia in SVCD format. I don't know if others will show up. I was never a fan of the show, but I just wanted to pass the word along to those that are.

doesn't the newsgroup have to be more specific than alt.binaries.multimedia? I can't find it.

Just go to http://alt.binaries.nl/ and search for 'wonderfalls'. I hope someone sets up a bit torrent for this, though...I don't have access to a newsgroup server (outside the firewall, at least)

Please help Haken keep this site running by occasionally clicking on some of the sponsored ad links on the side of the page!

Some more details:

Apparently a screener dvd went out with 6 episodes on it. Four of the episodes were aired on tv, two others (production 1x06 & 1x07) on the dvd remained unaired. My guess is that 1x07 will show up soon.

alt.binaries.multimedia is the official name of the group, although you may be thinking of:
news:alt.binaries.multimedia (a common web-browser/LookOut (heh) notation).

Some ISPs carry newsgroups, some don't. Premium news servers such as EasyNews or GigaNews are available. Newzbin, BNR2, and Agent are common news readers for binaries such as these. Go to TimDoc as I listed above for far more information than I would be able to provide.

Someone will inevitably post a torrent file to suprnova.org but beware: To download, you MUST be a uploader. That means that the copyright holder can bust you for distribution even if you are "only" downloading. Every TCP packet coming into a PC is tagged by a source IP address, if a torrent is being watched by the copyright holder and the packets come from your pc - you're tagged. Just thought I'd pass along this little caution regading bittorrent. It's strange how many people don't know this and feel anonymous.

There are torrents up for eps 6 and 7 at www.suprnova.org under the TV section, Wonderfalls sub-catagory... I am downloading them right now, kinda slowly, so the more the merrier! ;-)

I tried bit torrent once for a SouthPark episode and ended up with a Trojan. I'll stick to newsgroups.

Hey SB!

BitTorrent is a way of sharing files, basically. I'm not the one to ask about it, though. I don't really understand it, I just know it works. I googled it and came up with a link http://dessent.net/btfaq/ that seems to have some useful information information. Or, ask any of your local web geeks - I'm sure they know all about it!

umm...

eps numbered 5, 6, 7, 8, 10,
and as of yesterday 9

have shown up on abm recently. many doubt the numbering cuz they leave out barrel bear, the real #5. as per above, the one labelled 5 is really 6, and so on...

suprnova also lists some of them.

the posts 2 abm have been decent vcds followed by sharper xvids.

the vcds are approx 2x the size of the xvids...but vcd is an older standard, thus more compatible with older gear.

when R we gonna C Barrel Bear?
how many eps of wfalls R there, officially?

wfalls rox. got 1-10 on my hd.

whenever they get their chit in gear & setup preorder for the dvd, I will b 1st in line to buy 2 sets...1 for me, 1 to lend/give...

cheers,
