Looks like NBC has tweaked their site again. Parks and Recreation comes up empty using the latest beta. Diving into the script a little, it looks like the issue is when xbmc fetches the 'type_data' data in line 54 of NBC.py. getURL returns 'NULL' signifying a bad URL. However the 'show_code' parses "parks" correctly. There seems to only be issues with parks and the tonight show starring Jimmy out of what I tried.
Others have this issue?

Guessing they are closing down that api, noticed problems with it last week where it wasn't being updated for Days of our lifes. There is an alternative api that seems better,. Only the current season of Days of our lifes, but that's all I can actually watch on the website.

Well I tried this addon and none of the channels would play and all of the menus were god awful slow. I tried both the beta and normal versions.

I'm having a problem watching the Daily Show and the Colbert Report through the Comedy Central channel using this addon. If I try to play any episode it takes almost 15 minutes to buffer before it actually starts playing. When it finally starts it plays for a few seconds and then starts buffering again. I have no idea why this is, I'm on a wired gigabit connection and I'm from the Netherlands. The strange thing is, when I exit XBMC and open up Google Chrome to go to the official websites (thedailyshow.com/colbertnation.com) I can play the episodes just fine and almost instantly.
I'd really like to be able to play episodes without leaving XBMC all the time. Is there anyone that knows what could be the problem here? Thanks in advance!

Is it just Coincidence that the Hulu Addon for XBMC started to not work at the same time as the access to FreeCable channels started not working? With Hulu it seems related to Akamai CDN not bing used by Hulu any more. Is there any link to this in FreeCAble Addon? Maybe all networks that are associated with Hulu have dropped this CDN?

Try the beta version.
