SABnzbd for OS X ReviewWorst product name ever, but incredibly useful once you figure out what it does! - Version: 0.4.11, 8/5/2009 02:26AM PST

Configuration is a little tricky, but once you get it up and running, it makes quick work of any newsgroup download. I have it configured to email whenever a job is completed and automatically start downloading any NZB file I put into a special watched folder on my desktop. You can even configure it to organize your shows by Show, Season and Episode.

Another plus: thanks to the tiny size of NZB files, I can remotely trigger downloads by uploading them to my home machine in the correct folder via SFTP. By the time I get home, the latest episode of whatever TV show I want to watch is usually ready to view.

Tip: I use binsearch.info to do searches and generate NZB files. Works great!
