I came across a (relatively) new torrent aggregator for TV shows called tvRSS.net. It’s pretty awesome - much better than TVTorrent.info which I used to use but one day ceased to exist a few months ago. tvRSS.net has torrent listings for just about every popular show on TV right now and seems to stay very up to date. Torrent listings appear just a few hours after the show airs. You will notice that tvRSS doesn’t really “aggregate” tv-show torrents so much as just organizes torrents that are listed on mininova, a popular torrent search engine. Even though, it’s possible that there may be more torrents out there that aren’t on mininova, I’m guessing it’s pretty rare.

It looks like Brian/alienvenom, the creator of tvRSS.net, is really trying to build a best of breed TV show torrent destination - adding such simple, but novel, functionality like parsing torrent names so that they can be searched more effectively and removing torrents that are of the same show episode (but released by different groups). I’m definltey looking forward to what else he has in the works for the site.

Oh, if you are going to download torrents, make sure you install and run PeerGuardian. PeerGuardian blocks connections to peers from IP addresses which are known to be up to no good. An example of why you should run this is there have been many reports of people receiving threatening letters in the mail from HBO after downloading torrents of various HBO shows like The Sopranos and Entourage. PeerGuardian works off of a block list so it’s certainly not foolproof but it’d be stupid not to use it.
