2012 brings new things to discover as well as uncertainty about the future. It also brings more of that 2012 doomsday BS that has been running rampant the past few years, despite common sense and scientists actually proving that the predicted Mayan doomsday will not happen! But that still doesn't stop idiots like Discovery Channel, History Channel, Patrick Geryl and other morons from continuing to shove their doomsday shows and books down our throats!

Since the world will end in 356 days from now (we are in a leap year, so we have the 29th of February), I've decided to have my own fun with this "phenomenon". Don't worry, I'm not going to talk about how the earth will suddenly reverse its magnetic fields or anything like that. I lack the intelligence to make sense of that stuff.

The reason for this title if I'm not going to talk about 2012? A certain 80's song that critics think is probably the worst song in history.

BBC America: Good TV

Posted April 22nd, 2009 at 9:34 PM by Mario The World Champion

I don't watch much TV these days. Most of the stuff they have on these days are reality show and they all suck. The only channels I have been watching are Speed TV, Food Network, Discovery Channel, TLC and Animal Planet.

However, there's one channel I've been watching a lot of these days. And it's all thanks to the Brits across the pond: BBC America.

BBC Worldwide's American branch hosts a lot of good programs. I remember watching this channel when they showed Monty Python's Flying Circus, one of my favorite shows ever! These days, they have a lot of cool shows that I've been watching lately. Here are a few of my faves.

How Clean Is Your House?: Two ladies, who are expert cleaners and know how to make a place squeaky clean, go around Britain and the U.S. on an unusual mission: to seek out the filthiest homes in history. The two ladies check out the person's abode and go to lengths to check out just about everything that a normal person WOULD NEVER DO! An these homes are 1000% MESSY!! It makes my room look totally clean!

The "F" Word: The "F" stands for "food". Famed chef Gordon Ramsay, a dude who drops more "F" bombs than I do in one day, kicks out his talented chefs and replaces them with complete novices to see who has the desire. Then, the crew makes a 3 course meal for 50 guests in The "F" Word restaurant. Later, a special guest faces off with Ramsay in a recipe challenge where they make variations of their own recipes.

Doctor Who: I'm usually not the one to watch much Sci-fi stuff, but this show has been around for well over 40 years. I caught a recent episode and I liked it. The current Doctor rules. I don't know why I like him, though. Maybe it's because he wears Converse sneakers.

Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares: Gordon Ramsay goes around and tries to help out restaurants from going under. Most of the time, he's just dropping "F" bombs on just about everybody to make them wake up and smell the coffee.

And my most favorite show of all...

Top Gear: This show rules all! Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May rule! The Stig is God!! There's nothing I like more than seeing 3 guys think they're car guys and end up failing at their challenge!

I think I've found my cure for those boring nights. XD

    Top Gear is great ~ I like Doctor Who, but I preferred it when Rose was in the show, I didn't mind the doctor change though.

    After seeing some Top Gear episodes, it makes me want to go on a caravan holiday. XD

    And then I'll burn it down!

    What's ironic is our BBC 3 shows next to nothing but American shows (or our repeats but)

    I didn't know that the BBC has a channel that has American shows on it. I guess that's their American show channel.
