Special Edition: Life without TV

TV WASTELAND: as I move eastward on my trip, (passing thru basic cable territory), I have missed many of my favorite TV shows. The DVR's back home do not have unlimited storage and there are limited numbers of episodes available on-demand. What should I do, ask how things turned out, go to wikipedia and read the episode summaries, wait til I get home and see what i can. Breaking Bad is starting this week without me. I missed the last episode of The Killing. I think the Closer is on. White Collar, etc. This could be a blank area in my TV knowledge base. Maybe I never go back to watching.
