And it is FULL OF WIN!
Although have you seen Top Gear Australia? Awful rip off of the original, well not 100% true. Sometimes they forget they are an imitation and go do something for themselves, and win happens, but not always.

I think our greatest claim to fame remains 'The Chasers war on everything', best show ever anywhere ever.

The foremost reason on why state sponsored television should exist.

They have BBC radio, we have...

NPR...

Hey now...don't be hatin' on Prairie Home Companion (of course, as an ex-Lutheran married to a Unitarian, Garrison Keillor is probably far more amusing to me than he has a right to be)

Or Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me: what the Daily Show would look like if it were crossed with Whose Line Is It Anyway? (incidentally, a BBC product....I think. I've never quite understood what the relationship is between BBC and Channel 4).

Channel 4 is state owned but commercial and completely independant of the BBC.  So... I'm not sure.

You know what's awesome?  There's a british Law & Order.

Judges really do wear judge wigs over there.
Even the woman judges.
It's hilarious.  Those wigs are even more hilarious than fezzes.  (Sorry Doctor.)

Our judges wear wigs too (Australia). Something about making it less personal; it's actually surprisingly hard to recognise someone with a wig on or without.
