If you're a dedicated viewer of any number of TV shows, chances are you've been glued to your couch for the last week or so, excitedly watching season finales to get your last fix in before the shows disappear for a few months. Heroes and Lost both have their finales this week, House is ending next week, and so on. And in the case of shows like Jericho, the cliffhanger finale might be the last episode of the show. You don't want to miss that, do you?
Even worse than watching a cliffhanger finale only to have the show get canceled is having everyone talk about the finale after you missed it for whatever reason. A few years ago, you would've had to borrow a VHS tape from someone to watch it, but luckily the Internet and the iTunes Store have made it slightly easier to watch all your favorite TV series in case you screwed up that DVR recording.
Even better, the iTunes Store isn't even making you search for finales. It's collecting them for you on one handy page.
The page is being updated as the finales appear on iTunes, so if you happen to miss one, you can grab it right away when it becomes available. All of the usual shows are there, from the good (Heroes) to the less popular (Veronica Mars) to the downright ugly (Ugly Betty, that is). The downside to not watching them on TV or on an on-demand service is that you might be stuck with a bunch of random season finales littering your iTunes Library. Still, for $1.99, it's a good way to catch up on the things you've missed and ensure you're not the laughingstock of the water cooler come Thursday morning when everyone is talking about Lost.
