That is one of the very few programs that can tempt me to use the ON switch.
Brilliant and very funny.
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

Does anyone follow Spooks (or Mi-5 in the States)?
I think the show has declined in quality a bit, but it's still keeps me glued to my seat, which is quite an accomplishment, given it's in its 9th series. Peter Firth is a tremendous actor.

Couldn't watch Spooks after the fish fryer episode....
Well, thats "Masterchef - the Professionals" over for another year, the creme de la creme of the cookery programmes we are swamped with. The drama, the pathos, bathos and hubris,( not to mention hummus) the nosh. This season the standards went stella, anyone of the three finalists could've won.
Back to the beans on toast I suppose.
I recently discovered Louie, on Netflix, and it has got my recommendation. His stand-up sequences are mediocre, but the "reall-life" bits are all fantastic.

Curb Your Enthusiasm - one of my favorites
Breaking Bad - pretty good
South Park and Simpsons
Completely and utterly addicted to Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River Cottage. I'm watching about four episodes a night, starting from the early episodes on C4 OD, I find the whole thing totally engaging. I've never been so addicted to a TV programme in my life and I've hardly read a thing all week. I guess it is because I find the whole subject of self-sufficiency so infinitely appealing, idealistic yes, but infinitely appealing.
So did you watch last night's programme in Grand Designs, Neely? If you did, I guess Mrs Neely is hiding your wood-working tools even as we speak - that ecological/self-sufficient house was just so beautiful, I could have moved into it at once though I guess I would have to have joined the queue. My old carpenter Dad would have been drooling at the thought of all that hand-worked wood.
Right now I'm watching The Event. It is a really great show

Doctor Who... David Tenant for the first time actually captured my interest... My hubby was already a fan. And now the new doctor is better!
Anyway, Have I Got News for You is great, but Mock the Week I find better. Partly because of more freedom for the comedians. Other format, eh.
QI we watch religiously too.
ITV's Poirot with David Suchet is great! Missed the last one though. Had visitors.
Oh, Sherlock was great too. They did a pilot I think earlier this year and probably more episodes will follow. I found that a very clever up-to-date adaptation. The real Sherlock Holmes I don't really like as it is too obvious (Hound of the Baskervilles, hello phosphorus! It's hardly exciting).
University Challenge! I beat my hubby every week on lit and art! That said though, the science stuff, we are watching with great big eyes of astonishment sometimes...
And then there was Swedish Wallander. We were fans (although I missed the last episode because of visitors again!). I think they broadcast the last, but maybe they'll repeat. I so hope so! We could watch it every Saturday night for the rest of our lives.
Oh, yes and Harry Hill's TV Burp we also watch religiously.

"Je crains [...] que l'âme ne se vide à ces passe-temps vains, et que le fin du fin ne soit la fin des fins." (Edmond Rostand, Cyrano de Bergerac, Acte III, Scène VII)
Oh no I didn't see that. I'm not so good with the practical stuff like that though - I once hung a picture up in the kitchen and knocked all the electrics out, had to get someone round.
Tonight's new episode of River Cottage is not to be missed - bread!!! 8.00pm C4.
