After reading Youshutup's thread about the American version of the Office vs. the British one http://wow.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=4;mid=1201205082268733277;num=6;page=1, it got me wondering what else you Euro's got cooking up that may or may not make it over to the States.

My girlfriend (born and raised in Scotland) brought over a show called Father Ted and it was one of the most hilarious shows I have ever seen. Unfortunately, because of the religious satire (and the unfortunate real life death of the main character), it would never be shown over here.

So, what am I missing out on?

Thank you , I will check these out.

I do get BBC America, but it is only a continuous loop of Tourchwood, Dr. Who, Chef Ramsey and another show about two older ladies who check your "droppings" to see what kind of diet you are on.

Oo Never Mind the Buzzcocks should also get a nomination - if only for the one where Amy Whorehouse makes an *** of herself. ^ ^

Not sure if you guys get Vicar of Dibley, I quite like that too ^ ^
