Watch the Series Premieres of ‘Homeland’ and ‘New Girl’ Now

Can we talk for just a second about home entertainment and the inevitable extinction of physical media? Because with every day that passes, I get more and more annoyed by the DVDs that are still taking up space in my very small apartment when so much more of what I want to watch is available on my computer and/or on my actual gorgeous big TV via apps on my XBox. Sometimes these technologies even make traditional TV obsolete! For example: Showtime's new national security drama "Homeland" doesn't début until October 2...but the full series premiere is online right now.

And, today — a week after the iTunes Store put it up for free, and a week before it airs on Fox — the "New Girl" pilot hit Hulu.

So that's your Tuesday goof-off taken care of. You're welcome.
