their episodes on their site? I have no problem watching a show I missed on my computer, but hubby is so used to his 26" TV he hates to watch his show on my 19" monitor...especially since I havent found a way to make them full screen. I told him I doubt it's possible but I honestly don't know.

1. Not directly
But you may be able to capture the screen output.

I have never used any of these, but If you could capture the download as it is playing, you might be able to circumvent the security with this type of workaround.

I can;t say that it would work, or that I would ethically recommend it, but that is what I would try to do to accomplish such a thing.

2. I bet the resolution would really suck on a 26" screen
might not even be worth it, but it's probably doable somehow, as poster above notes.

4. You can make them full screen
On the lower, right-hand corner of the video player, there's a "fullscreen" button. It works in both Firefox and IE. If you don't see the button, maybe you need to update your Adobe Flash Player.
