When I don't have any academic projects hanging over my head...
Colbert Report Family Guy Heroes Daily Show Torchwood Scrubs
Pretty much in that order. Most via my computer while I'm cycling or on the treadmill.

I love Casualty. It's basically a UK version of ER, which demonstrates nicely the problems with our NHS.
As for transatlantic imports - South Park is pretty fucking hilarious. It can be quite insightful too at times. I loved the movie Bigger, Longer and Uncut (released back in '99 so a bit dated now) - I still count it high up on my list of all-time favorites. It really turned swearing into an art...

T.V.?
That's that ugly screen in the living room yea?
The one that old people and kids sit around drooling at?
Never got into it. .
Although Australia has a few unique shows i used to dig.
CNNNN (A parody of CNN - fucking funny too, if a little soft, but meh, they've got to stay on air)
It's spin off, Chasers War On Everything. (These are the guys that got passed the security perimeter during the recent AIPAC meeting in Oz, dressed as Osama Bin Laden - you might have heard about it).
And way before that there was a show called John Saffran's Musical Jamboree. Hilariously subversive show pitched as a behind the scenes music program.
I used to watch Rowan Atkinson's Blackadder too.
And The Office as well. That was really good. The American version is terrible. The British original was great.
Well worth punching in the first three into You Tube for those non Aussies; CNNNN, Chasers War On Everything and Musical Jamboree or just John Saffran.
Pretty crazy TV.

Atkinson was pretty funny in Mr Bean.
I enjoy British comedy as well as the transatlantic kind. 'Bottom' is/was a hilarious show - very crude too. Lots of 'nut cracking' slapstick. A live show of theirs was based around a plan to seduce the Queen

The movie version of Bottom, 'Guest House Paradiso', featured a very un-PC comment about the late Princess Diana.
Caused quite an uproar I believe
