Top Gear... Mainly because its a British program and I live in the US. 
Otherwise DVR is pretty handy.

Most of the US national and cable networks put up many of their primetime shows on the internet the day after they air and keep them up for anything from 1 week to entire season. Unfortunately, most use a different proprietary viewer you have to download or you have to create an account on their website or some such nonsense.
I personally have a PCI TV card in one desktop at home that I use as a DVR and use ORB to watch my recordings or LiveTV whenever I'm away. The nice thing about my combo is I can watch all the stations I get on my home cable system from anywhere in the world that I can get on the Internet. So traveling abroad is no problem or at home I can use my cellphone's webbrowser, or my CarPC.

I watch Top Gear on BBC Canada
We have Comcast Cable Internet, Dish Network Sat TV, and Bell Canada Sat TV with dual Hi-def tuner and dual DVR each... We like our tube!  So we can watch/record 4 shows at once plus the media center PC which streams BFM TV

well in fear of getting another hit from darquePervert i'm going to say it anyways:
nabolister.com - works as a search engine for tv shows and movies
peekvid.com
blockbustertv.com
veoh.com - requires you to install their free player, but it lets your browse by channels kinda like tv on demand
joost.com - requires you to install their free player, but it lets your browse by channels kinda like tv on demand
