I think you guys gotta have some good shows out there. Dr. Who is not bad but I did not watch it religiously. I saw the first season of Merlin and I will continue to watch the new season. Can you recommend me any? It's pretty much hit and miss for me though.

Okay in hindsight I should have asked you fellows to provide a brief description as I am too lazy to check on all of those.

Another fan of Top Gear here. The show is absolutely brilliant!

I also like Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares (the American version was rubbish since they traded the awesome documentary style of the original, to cookie-cutter American reality tv style - complete with the cliche exterior building shot before every f'n commercial).

BBC America has three shows airing soon:

The InBetweeners
Occupation
Survivors


All sound pretty good. I am going to give them a shot.

Inbetweeners is great, Occupation was apparently alright and Survivors was a bit shit
