    I know folks here rave about this series, so I noted with interest that
    BBC2 are running it starting next Monday. I'm assuming it's the first
    series and I think it's on every weekday night.

    This has been a PSA etc.

    Good on you.

    For those of you still living in the 20th century, dependent on
    broadcast television, and without access to beowulf clusters of media
    servers and fembots with a penchant for evil, I suggest you sit
    yourself in front of the box next Monday.

    If you were brought up speaking and writing the English of Her Britannic
    Majesty, I'd say: make sure you can get subtitles. I watched that
    series on DVD after a friend recommended it, and long before it became
    'in' Clique viewing. The black American English was quite literally
    unintelligible to me. It would have been very difficult without
    subtitles.

    Works for me, I'm slowly working my way through The Big Bang Theory. Got
    to love geek humour.

    From Lovefilm - 13 hours of viewing pleasure for the same as a 1hr
    30min film.

    That would cost extra money.

    Outlandish but highly recognisable
    I've got Americans to do that for me :)
