Yeah, Satellite has yet to show this. Sorry. I need more proof than "Cable".

@Wonocva15 Get cable. The major network shows suck but there's plenty of amazing American comedy and drama out there if you know where to look.

For awhile is the key point there.
Honestly, I stopped watching TV when I was 15 six years ago. The 90's had some great cartoons on, but after about 2002 or so it just went to shit and I've had no interest in watching TV here in America.
Then I came on youtube and found a plethora of British television shows and my faith in broadcasting started to return. Just not AMERICAN broadcasting.

@HazorTheHopeEnder The U.S office was good for a while.

@theturbocow yes it does, im British...

Thumbs up if you too want "He Hoy!" to replace "Hello!" when we make phone calls.

@HazorTheHopeEnder Just because you're entitled to your (mostly accurate) opinion, doesn't mean you need to be an asshole about it.
-
@HazorTheHopeEnder You can put your pretentious snobbery away. The basic tenants of this show already exist in the U.S. It's called "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me" and it's on NPR.

@kaukra He says "utter". It means complete or absolute.

@HazorTheHopeEnder can canadians have it?
this show is not in america for purely one reason, your shitty TV people would take it, grind it down to its barest bones and put some shit yank "comedians" in it, in which they would crack awful prejudicial jokes (slightly hypocritical from my point of view but still) and there wouldn't be an audience just a soundboard with applauses and fake laughter. Which is why we keep everything from you because you eventually just fuck it up.
