HBO's intriguing — but not for the commitment-phobic — nightly series, In Treatment, isn't exactly an overnight sensation. The show's premiere last week got the lowest numbers for an HBO series premiere ever. But maybe it's not quite time to panic yet, considering all the other ways HBO is making In Treatment available to HBO subscribers and non-subscribers alike.
Personally, I've been TiVoing all the episodes and hoping to settle in for a long marathon sometime down the line. But I don't have to do that, at least for the first three weeks: HBO has made the first 15 episodes available as a podcast from the iTunes store. Those same 15 episodes are also streaming online for free. In both of those cases, the full week's worth of episodes becomes available every Monday, so you don't even have to check back several times to get them all.
There are also two-minute recaps of each episode available on the show's main site, and if you have HBO but don't want to tune in each night, they're all also up through HBO On Demand.
Have you been following In Treatment on TV? And do you think you'll try to watch it any of these other ways?

Buzz... you are a lifesaver! I got rid of my expanded cable last week and I've been trying to figure out how I'm going to see this!
1I really like In Treatment. It's intense and very real. As a social worker I find it interesting to see a therapist working through issues. And it's so voyeuristic... LOVE IT!
2I've been watching. It's different than everything that's out there. I'll keep watching, but I'm ready for some of fave shows to come back.
3I really enjoy this show.
4Never heard of it. Love that you can watch for free.
5Blair Underwood on ABC in Dirty Sexy Money, on CBS in The Adventures of Old Christine and now HBO on In Treatment...Military Brats RULE!
6i only caught the show last friday - and i'm not sure about it. i really really wanted to like it - and it was a little slow moving. i think that i'm going to try to catch it again to see if maybe it gets better...but HBO's ratings don't lie
7I watched all of last week's episodes and need to catch up on this week already. I do like it a lot though & will continue to watch, either through on demand or tivo!
8I've been watching this, I think its pretty good. I'm not hooked on it, but if I miss it I always try to catch up.
9i've joined up, logged in; where's the 'press play' button to makeso i can atch the show?! i've seen just one episode and was hooked instantly. very proud of fellow countryman gabriel byrne, best thing he's done
