Completely In Love With..........

Gavin and Stacey

Produced last year for BBC Three, and now airing on BBC America, Gavin and Stacey has managed to melt my icy cold, sitcom hating heart. No seriously, I like...watched a sitcom and not only that, but a "romantic comedy" sitcom. I don't know what came over me other than the hilarious and undoubtedly dry and at times raunchy, twisted writing team of James Corden and Ruth Jones. The simple boy meets girl story line, but with two freak best friends thrown in. Freak best friends actually happen to be none other than Corden and Jones themselves. Oh and add some semi-dirty, european television essence.
Tuesday nights @ 8:40 on BBC America.
Two thumbs up.

I haven't caught this yet, but it is recorded on my DVR.

Have you watched Skins at all? That's my new guilty pleasure (Sunday nights on BBC America, 9pm).

I think all I watch is BBC America now, I watch Top Gear, Skins, Kitchen Nightmares, Torchwood, Primeval and of course, all those weird documentaries they have on about fat girls and bullies.

OMG! Yeah, BBC Revealed! Jon hates those specials. I find them interesting. Anyway, yes, Top Gear is my top pick! And right, Skins is really good.

See, I'm sorry, everything is better in Europe.
