I were to download it and watch, since it's not aired in my area.

You should even worry about it -- I don't really see how it is much
different from asking a friend with a VCR to tape something for you. 
Since you aren't planning on publicly distribution the files there
really isn't a problem.. (the TV studio would never get wind of it
anyway)
