What you're describing is not a DNS-related problem, but one with your actual
IP. You may want to try Tor or VPN to circumvent it. However, I'm quite sure
that there will be other sources for the show than NBC. If you don't insist
on HD quality, that is. Possibly. Give the net an hour or two, and you'll be
able to find what you missed. You should in this case, however, rely upon Tor.
