Yeah the studios have a lot more money essentially, having advert breaks every 5 minutes has its advantages

Anyone who thinks we can't do crime drama needs to watch more Spooks.

I'm sure there is some great British television...no, really -- but I can't for the life of me get the reputation that you guys have for your "legendary" comedies. I mean, some deserve the praise that they get. But a lot of them just use sarcasm as the only real device in them. Don't get me wrong, the majority of American sitcoms are horrible, too, but when you get gems, you get gems.

BBC America has lots of hilarious shows about real people, like "Living With Enormous Breasts," was one I saw the other night, and saw another one following a transexual around. That and the news is seemingly all that channel shows.
