You mean "try" to invade Tennessee. All you crazy MF's up there... probably more firearms than people in the state and 1,000,000 rounds of ammo per capita. Yeah, the operative word there is definitely "try".

It was a great show last night. It was funny as hell to watch them "modify" each others bikes plus haul around the gifts they bought each other.
From the way it looked it was pure hell as they did this during the rainy season. It looked liked they had fun anyway. Not sure how many times they will rerun it as the show was actually longer than an hour by about 20 minutes.

Just the title of this thread makes me laugh out loud.
Sandy I'm sorry you had to miss your show. Same thing happens to us with the CBS affiliate here. Just when you ready to watch your favorite shows it starts acting up.

Of course, the eleventy-seven "JAYZUS !JAYZUS !JAYZUS !" channels we have to have here NEVER screw up...But I wanna watch something on th' Beeb, & it has to go haywire....We do. We have about 10 channels that have nothing but religious programming....an' its about all the "Hellfar 'n' Brimstone" variety, delivered by guys who never realised that 1973 puke-green polyester leisure suits went out of style in, well, 1974...

Enjoy it. I know how it feels though, I'm stuck with Comcast cable.

It was great. I DVR'd it and watched it yesterday when I stayed home sick. I then watched about another 6 hours of Top Gear and Gordon Ramsey shows. Not a bad day at all.

Between Top Gear and Monty Python's Flying Circus reruns, it's enough to make me call Comcast and order BBC America!
