I don’t have a TV signal in my apartment at all, since I watch all my entertainment online. It saves me money, and I can watch what I want when I want. These are some of my favorite tech shows:

Tekzilla
Tekzilla features tech tips, reviews and help for everyone techy enough to read my blog. They have daily tips and weekly longer episodes with reviews and more. Here you can find reviews of cameras, get tips for cool/useful websites and software, and much more.

Geekbrief TV
Geekbrief is a webshow with tech news and journalism. This is an easy way to keep up with the latest news in tech, in ~5 minute chunks. They also have coverage from their travels, from conferences to beautiful outdoor scenery.

HD Nation
If you have a home theater system and/or a HDTV and a Blu-ray player, this is a must for you. They give tips for your home theater, HDTV and Blu-ray reviews and release dates. They have reviewed HDMI switches, TV test paterns, must-have Blu-ray movies and more.

Apple Quick Tips
~1 minute video clips from Apple with quick tips for working better with your Mac.

Diggnation

Diggnation
Diggnation is not quite a tech show, but since the two funny hosts are both techies, they tend to talk about a lot of tech, so I list it anyway. They cover the best stories from digg.com, answer viewer questions and talk a lot around the topics the digg stories cover. A really entertaining show, especially to people interested in tech, but also others.

Hak5 (another link)
Hak5 is the most hardcore tech show I watch. You need to be quite into computing to get the most out of this. They cover scripting, IT management tips, hacking, IT security and more. I have followed them from season one, and I recommend searching for old episodes if you need something special, like controlling your lamps from your cellphone, cracking WEP or WPA wireless networks, stealing passwords with a USB stick, setting up VMWare ESXi and more.

Comments
These shows are all available on iTunes, and most if not all are also available in the open source Miro player. Do you have any comments about the shows? Tips for gems I have missed? Please write a comment if you do.

I would also like to note that most of these shows are produced by revision3, a great independent web TV company. Check them out for more great shows.
