Curious about next week’s new ABC Family college drama “Greek” or Comedy Central’s auto-com “American Body Shop” with former NYC cop/LI comic John DiResta [pictured right]?

Sneak a peek at them by downloading next week’s pilot episodes right now through iTunes. These previews are free, along with tastes of such other current shows as Bravo’s “Hey Paula” docusoap with the “American Idol” judge and LOGO’s “Curl Girls” reality show in the surf. Also still gratis are last spring’s ABC story catch-up clipfests from “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Ugly Betty,” to keep you (almost) current for fall.

Plenty of other tube treats have been added at $1.99 an episode, including Garry Shandling’s acclaimed “The Larry Sanders Show” and “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip.” You can even try out offerings from cable/satellite channels you might not otherwise have access to, including FUEL, Style, Sleuth, the English-language SiTV channel and the bilingual mun2.

Remember you can watch the shows through iTunes on your computer as well as on your iPod. Click on “TV Shows” in the iTunes store box (upper left on the application's home page), then scroll down to click “Free on iTunes.”
