Jon...
Anybody watching this show on BBC America? Usually, I can't take
watching Brit TV, as my tastes are just different from theirs. But this
show is terrifically strong; it's probably better than anything on FX or
HBO right now. If you are looking for an interesting show to catch on

Casey McDonald's Guidance Counsellor, Ian J. Ball...
I think it's 'alright', but no more than that. It really does strike me
as the British interpretation of "Boston Public" - the shows seem to
share some similarities...

occasion, please check this one out on BBCA.

One note. Thank goodness for Closed captioning and "On Demand";
otherwise I wouldn't have come across this gem!

Ken from Chicago...
Maybe it would help to state WHY it's such a great show. What is it? A
sitcom? a drama? a soap? an action / adventure show? a game show? a reality
show? historical documentary? If scripted, what's the plot? If unscripted,
what's the setting? What is it about the show that moved you to post the
recommendation in the first?

Be specific. The general "it's good" or "it's great" just washes over the
average person as so much background hype, You need details to slap people
in the face to get their attention. You can do it, Jon. Look into the
computer screen and type the answer to this question:

Why the frell should we bother to look up the digital cable channel that BBC
America is on, then track down some show about some waterloo?
