TVShows is a free, open source application that triggers automatic downloading of TV shows via BitTorrent.
Working in conjunction with a BitTorrent client, the application manages show subscriptions. Favorite shows are automatically downloaded in the background whenever they become available online.
Most BitTorrent video is encoded in DivX or .AVI formats, and will play fine in a media player like VLC, but if you want to stream it to an AppleTV, you will need to convert the shows — or hack the AppleTV to support DivX and other formats.
Another way to get TV shows automatically is to set up Azureus with the RSS Feed Scanner plugin. Full instructions here.
