there's bound to be an email link somewhere on the VH1 site. And now would be a good time to re-show them, with SOL looking like a hot item.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

There should be a link on the VH1 website. But it seems like they have a pretty decent relationship with Al. It seems like when he has an album out, they do randomly show both the BTM and Driven eps. Usually they'll have it on between 10pm and 1am, if they show it.

Yeah, YouTube doesn't really lend itself to much besides short segments. Which works ok for bits of AL-TV because they're broken up into videos and skits, but normal TV shows are less than ideal. It will work in a pinch if you just need to see something, though - I watched several episodes of Avatar: The Last Airbender on YouTube, to catch up with the series before new eps started airing. 23 minutes of show gets broken up into 3 files, but it beats not seeing it at all. It doesn't actually look too bad on a TV.

I can't seem to find it on Bittorrent. Can you post a link or something to them?
I think people could put them on youtube if theydid it peice by peice.

that would be a lot of work for nothing. odds are they would be deleted within a month anyway.
plus, youtube's quality is horrible.

(I've pm'd you a link to the site. even though this is not avaliable anywhere else I don't think it's be ok to post it)

VH1 also had a show called Video Timeline. Weird Al Yankovic had one done on him. That was awsome. They should replay that one too. They should release BTM, Driven and Video Timeline on DVD.
