A number of pilots for upcoming fall shows have been leaked online, sparking suggestions that they may have been purposely leaked by the studios.
The shows are among those highly anticipated like "Bionic Woman," "Reaper," "The Sarah Conner Chronicles" and "Cavemen," among others.
When asked if it was a marketing ploy, one unnamed studio executive said, “We’re doing everything we can to fight piracy. Our piracy department is playing whack-a-mole with these things.”
Repesentatives of the networks say they've let their studio partners know about the issue.
A number of popular pilots were screened at the Comic-Con in San Diego, and with the large number of people with video recorders in their hands, executives say they expect to see more pirated copies online soon.
Some downloaders say the current pirated copies are of a fairly high quality. They've been found on sites like Torrent Spy, The Pirate Bay and Mininova.
