How does one go about using copyright images on their site, being that the site is built around products of a famous TV show and the only images may be copyrighted? I can't find any other images.....
I was thinking to include a link to the source, would this be kosher?

Only if you use them in an editorial context.
Any use for profit you must have permission in writing.
You can get away with it sometimes but are liable if they catch you.
It could cost you more than you make depending on the image value.
There is a fine line between editorial fair use and commercial use.
Err on the side of caution.
