No idea how you would accomplish that "legally". If you were willing to do
things a little less legally you could have a desktop PC that automatically
downloads torrents of your favorite shows and puts them on a shared network
drive. Do you have another PC that could act as a local server and run Ted?

If you do go the less than legal route I would be sure to install MoBlock.

Honestly, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND going the illegal route. In the past I have
downloaded TV shows, until I got a legal threat from NBC for downloading an
episode of a TV show they canceled anyway. You are putting yourself at a big
risk, and the cost could greatly out weigh what you pay for cable every
month.
