Maybe Britain can make crappy copies of our good shows like we do of yours!

Don't forget - our good shows are on cable - monthly fee. But then again, don't you all pay a tv tax?

Yes (the licence fee) - but that only covers the BBC channels (which, to be fair, do show some really good stuff).

The Tudors was a popular show done on this side of the pond with the BBC. A grant or something.

We have a station here called AMC (that played American Movie Classics) but has recently been bringing shows like Breaking Bad that are a little different and quite entertaining.

I just saw Bored To Death and I find it funny. Some doof tries to be a PI. Lots of good one liners.

The biggest step for tv would be a show that is not a law enforcement show, cop show, hosptial show or family drama. Pushing Daisies was good. But it takes a while to catch on and just when it does, the stations decide the ratings are no good.

I love this show too. It's been off for a while and will air new shows in March 2010.

I am trying to find the time It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia is on.

FX has that along with Rescue Me which somehow has been able to make a good show about firefighters.
