The difference between Brits and everyone else

The USA do nice action flicks but whilst I do like a few they are more silly at times - eg NCIS

NCIS? Silly?
YES, now everyone thinks everything can be solved in the lab, finger prints can be lifted from thin air and DNA can't be destroyed.
On the topic of crime and Rowan Atkinson... "Thin Blue Line"
I know, I know, after Blackadder and Mr. Bean I just can't take him seriously.

Don't forget Black Adder!

Also Miss Marple - but not that new series with the woman who looks a bit dotty!
And yes Cadfel - I must watch more of them!


Oh and lets not forget Only Fools and Horses!
 
I'm thinking that a few of you have gone all hardcore Patty Hearst. :048:

Black Adder

 
I wish some of the Brits could have a chance to stay a couple weeks in Camden, New Jersey, since they did provide the name of the state for us, it's the least we could do to show our appreciation. :)
 
Frost is the best of all! 'Though pretty much anything with David Jason it is on my 'must watch' list. Leave us also not forget possibly the greatest comedy series in recent times, "Jeeves & Wooster".
Never seen Jeeves & Wooster. Looks good though. Might have to fire up the proxy server so I can watch some episodes if they are available although youtube seems to have several full episodes.

 
I don't know anything about the Spice Girls. My exposure to British culture leans more toward Agatha Christie.
That's Dame Agatha Christie. She was a wonderful author. It's funny though, her most prominent sleuth is from Belgium.
Er-kewl Pwa-roe - never miss one when PBS is playing them.
Are you CRAZY??? Do you not have NETFLIX???? They have all the Poirot episodes made in England with David Suchet. They are marvelous. I believe they did every Poirot story written.
Have you seen Bergerac set on the Island of Jersey

No, but I sure do wish our Jersey were an island and could just float away ;)
Our Jersey is a beautiful place

I'm curious, how was Little Britain received there?


 
House was better in The Black Adder as Prince George.
 
Just curious, does everyone in Britain have an Aunt Agatha? Seems to be a very popular name at least in television shows.
 
Jeeves and Wooster is halfway decent. I never liked Morse. (too much politics in it)

I loved Cadfael. Upstairs Downstairs, Hamish Macbeth, probably many more that I don't remember. I have the distinct feeling that I've missed out on 90% of what would be my favorite shows, had I the time.

You could fly them over in your helicopter. That would be a smashing thing to do.
