Original British, or new American version? I've stayed away from the American one because I know it could never live up to my expectations, but getting the Brit episodes is a pain in the ass...

No wait what seriously?? We looked on YouTube way back when, then gave up and have been getting them on DailyMotion, which has a horrible interface. I know what I'm re-binging tomorrow...

Just watched "The Barkley Marathons: The Race That Eats Its Young" on Amazon. A documentary about an extreme 100 mile trail race in Kentucky. It was very good. Here's the Wikipedia page about the race. Barking mad.

LOL. No.

Except maybe the number of lines he is able to remember accurately enough to recite.

Just binged 4 seasons of "Brockmire" in like 3 days. Hank Azaria (the Simpsons voice guy) stars as a washed-up baseball announcer trying to make a comeback, and he has surprisingly good dramatic chops. Meanwhile, the dialogue is like if Aaron Sorkin told dick jokes. Won't be everyone's cup of tea, but it sure as hell is mine.
