Thankfulness thing 5

[abendgules]

Today I'm thankful for the BBC.

While I miss some aspects of CBC radio, BBC radio and TV produces some astonishing comedy, documentary and (awful phrase) 'current affairs' programs.

There's some dreck (Eastenders, the never-ending misery), and some derivative work (comedians running quiz shows are a sure bet - here are five more in the same mould!), but alongside is the brilliance, depth, wit and satire I've not seen or heard elsewhere.

And, of course, BBC brought back Dr. Who. I'm amused to find that in the BBC Shop, Dr. Who is his own category (DVD, Audio, Books Magazines, Children, Dr Who, Blu-ray, New Releases).

etfb introduced me to I'm Sorry, I Haven't a Clue, this morning, and I've listened to a couple of episodes already. Hilarious. I'll definitely second you on being thankful for the BBC who brings us such wonderful entertainment.
