We wouldn't suggest you travel just to watch TV, but when you're in a foreign country checking out what's on the airwaves can be a refreshing/bewildering experience in cultural diversity.

And it's not a bad way to learn a language.

At Beeline TV you can get TV from a wide variety of countries streamed to your computer, free.

We like to watch.
