What television show did you just watch? Part I

I just watched this Thursday's Never Mind the Buzzcocks. I cannot believe how the introduction of Simon Amstell as host has totally turned this show around 180 degrees.
This was without a doubt the funniest half-hour of my life this year to date. Everything was hilarious. I was eating my dinner as I watched this, and I literally spat it out over the floor I had to laugh so much.
God knows how wasted Simon was on his T4 Popword nonsense, but I honestly think he could be the funniest man in Britain. If not now, then in a few years certainly.
Now, if only Have I Got News For You? could learn from Buzzcocks and settle down and get a decent regular host.

It's pretty good for being about 50. Can't say that I enjoy history films, but it was okay

Series 2 Trailer 1 - Back in the Nick of Time
Well, what can I say - a very strong opening for the second and final series. The whole crux of the plot of this episode was to convince us that Sam's "time traveling" was a result of him being in a coma in the "real world", with somebody with a grudge torturing Sam's comatose body in the 2000's, which affected his perceptions and health in the 1970's. But... ah... but the final phone call where Sam is able to talk back to the mysterious voices (and trace the call) indicate that Sam's ability to "time travel" is something more complex than a coma induced fantasy. (Not that I ever thought it was, as it would be far to obvious, given all the massive evidence we were drip fed over S1)
But the episode was more than just being something written just so the final two minutes could pull a rug from under the viewer and spin his views around 180 degrees, thematically both Sam and Gene made 180 degree turns too. For once, Sam wanted to convict somebody without evidence, and Gene wanted to go "by the book". It appears both characters are starting to influence the other.

Tonight's (April 19) edition of "Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?" was great, and the contestant dropped out after winning $500,000. But they played the Million Dollar Question anyway just to see if he knew it and he did. The question: Who was the United States first Secretary of the Treasury?
How many of you know the answer?
