3/22/2010 8:04:38 PM

3/22/2010 8:05:44 PM

Top Gear

3/22/2010 8:07:35 PM

but Top Gear airs in the US all the damn time.

3/22/2010 8:08:09 PM

^Skins aired on BBC America, of course it was edited to shit and they changed all the music but it still aired in the US. I really liked the 1st season, but never ended up watching after that since I heard it started to suck in season 2.

3/22/2010 9:10:29 PM

anything that's changed beyond recognition (like manny's abortion angle on degrassi) i don't really consider

but whatever

3/22/2010 9:13:30 PM

are there goods shows in other languages? subs? dubs? I know them foreigners make a good movie once in a while.

3/22/2010 9:15:37 PM

peep show

Britain's got talent.

I just watched several episodes of "The F Word" on bravo or some channel the other day. It's like he combined "Hells Kitchen" with that other show where he turns restaurants around. Kind of getting tired of Ramsey (sp?).

3/23/2010 9:40:08 AM

lol sometimes on BBC America they would put subtitles on Skins. Great show though, you can find streaming episodes all over the internets. It has cool theme music too. The second season wasn't that bad, but season 3 kinda sucked.

3/23/2010 9:46:33 AM

i'll admit that the pilot or Sea Patrol is terrible, but it gets better.

you can catch TPBs here if you happen to have IFC, or maybe it's Sundance. one of those.

The Border

3/24/2010 8:44:53 PM

'the inbetweeners' ftw. about a group of underclassmen high school boys. just continual silliness and foul humor. visited my old roommate in cambridge recently and he showed me a few episodes.

3/24/2010 9:03:09 PM

i dont know if it aired in the usa but

Mighty Boosh

3/24/2010 9:05:41 PM

whoever said "peep show"


i concur.

Trailer Park Boys

Randy's gut is entirely watchable, but not in one frame.

3/25/2010 4:45:30 AM

TPB, amazing show

3/25/2010 10:31:40 AM

Mighty Boosh comes on Adult Swim.

3/25/2010 3:42:29 PM

^^

also, The Mighty Boosh isn't "just some show"

if you haven't searched out and watched EVERY FUCKING EPISODE in it's full entirety

there's something wrong with you

it's basically one of the greatest things to ever happen to television

3/25/2010 7:23:07 PM

lol, i can't believe how many people have watched TPB. btw, if you have DirecTV, episodes of TPB air on the 101 network.

but yeah, that and Top Gear are 2 of the best.
