Britcom Saturday Night

I'll be forced to record Keeping Up Appearances and Last of the Summer Wine. We'll be out of town for the day and come back in time to see a Rivermen game tonight. Maybe we'll enjoy them Sunday morning.


Why do I like Last of the Summer Wine? Well, mostly because it's funny. It's similar to Seinfeld in that it is a show about nothing, yet a lot happens. I like the recurring gags and the subtle humor. Then there's the physical humor. I know they use stunt doubles but it's still funny to think of an old man losing control of his bike and crashing into a hay bale.


Also because it's a nice show to watch on a night that broadcast TV offers nothing.


So I look forward to the eventual receipt of whatever tat Dan can manage to throw across the pond, whenever he can manage it.


I have to shower now so we can hit the road. GO RIVERMEN!!
