YouTube is great. You usually can find something you want if the video is tagged correctly. One of the shows on tv one time featured a funny wedding clip from YouTube but I didn't get to see the whole video. So I went to YouTube and there I found it and watched the whole clip. Since YouTube is so popular, I don't usually have to go to the site to see the latest funny clips. My friends would usually email me the latest funniest video and then I would sometimes share them to friends on my list. Hulu and Fancast are nice and useful when you regularly watch certain shows on tv and missed watching them for some reason. But I found Hulu as more user friendly than Fancast. I searched an episode of American Idol on both sites and I found it more quickly using Hulu. Libraries can also make use of these sites esp. when helping with patrons search for shows by genre. Hulu offers you a list of shows in alphabetical order by genre. I can use either of these sites but I have easier access with fancast since I have a Comcast account. Here's a video clip I found on YouTube on libraries--Mr. Bean goes to the library. It's LOL funny!

Hi,
just a note to thank you for your mention of Fancast. We hope it is a useful and fun resource for your readers and please let us know any thoughts on how we can improve the ease of use. We think out content is unparalleled, and has offerings from an astounding list of content providers, inoluding CBS, NBC, Fox, etc. Our list of TV shows alone is pretty amazing, everything from classics like "Mary Tyler Moore" and Dick Van Dyke" to current hits like "30 Rock" and Family Guy." You can see it at http://www.fancast.com/full_episodes
There's also some great movies playing (eg. "Fever Pitch" with Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon), and, again, totally free. Please don't hesitate to let us know of any ways we can improve the site.
Cheers,
Jim (for Fancast)
