August 16, 2013 11:02 pm Thanks for the PotW, Josh. Bought 1 and 2 yesterday after listening and they were great fun. Added them to my shop pull list today.
August 16, 2013 11:51 am @kzap @GL01942 We just need Mr. Fry to kickstart the thing over here. Install some personalities that your average viewer here knows and you have a winner. As an American who lived abroad for 8 years with 5 years in London, trust me when I say English humor took some time to adjust to. Start a QI with an English host (maybe John Oliver?!?!) and American panellists and then slowly drip feed the English ones. It's more humane. But agreed, Netflix or Hulu needs to get that quality English tellie streaming!

August 15, 2013 7:13 pm @kzap Closest thing we might have to Mock the Week or QI that I can think of is Real Time with Bill Maher. It's more politics and issues rather than news but it does have some of the same silliness at times. Tell Mr. Stephen Fry to get over here and host an American version of QI. That would be most excellent programming.
August 15, 2013 4:40 pm Oliver is so good at lampooning news because he's been doing exactly this in podcast form for almost six years now. http://thebuglepodcast.com/ The Bugle lives on!
July 30, 2013 2:12 pm My girlfriend has started using phrases like "I set it on Fear Agent." instead "I set it on the end table."
July 30, 2013 12:31 pm The last book to give me sleepless reading nights was Locke and Key. It's still the trade I look forward to the most when it hits the shop. I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a finale to a series either.
July 23, 2013 11:15 pm I got back into comics just after this. Big Joe Kelly fan. Was his Justice League Elite high quality?
July 21, 2013 10:56 am So good. The question is will I be able to wait the inevitable few days between the release and Christmas.
