Some of the material is pretty thought-provoking too, exposing the tactics used to mislead people in TV and advertising too. The advertising episode is eye opening. Think it's in season 2 on the playlists for anyone who's interested.

Shite? No.
But not really the sort of programme you'd expect someone in the US to "get", which is probably why no-one's mentioned it. |

I wouldn't expect anyone in America to understand our TV.
But someone mentioned Rab C. And some of the stuff already mentioned it pure pish. |

Watch 'Life On Mars' NOW before the US version comes out and puts you off watching it forever.

I second this. I also call it that the US version, will be shit. Not shit compared to our version like all other US conversions of UK programs, but SHIT outright.

Have you heard of the seeded fruit that is often mis-tooken for a ve-ge-ta-ble, red in colour and fleshy within, but beware the pips!
I dunno how some of it will translate to an American audience as a lot of it takes the piss out of modern culture but there should be bits that make you laugh. |
