Oh, and speaking of the Beeb, Planet Earth is out on DVD -- original BBC cut, original BBC narration. (And it's also available in Blu-Ray and HD-DVD, which if you have any way of playing them are definitely worth getting since the entire series was specially shot on HD -- there's no bought-in footage, and nothing's been upconverted.)
Angel: Will you just shut up for once?! Illyria: What? Angel: My God, the speechifying. Has it ever occurred to you that now might not be the best time for when-we-were-muck stories?

Experimental TV: Non-Fiction
This thread is part of an experiment to discern the Buffistas' future interest in television discussion. It will remain open until June 1st, 2007, upon which date there will be spirited debate regarding the infinite possibilities for our board's development. This thread is for non-fiction tv, including but not limited to documentaries and reality shows. [NAFDA]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, good. Now I can delete all my unwatched episodes. It's something I really want to have and watch, but I can't handle now.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Looks like the Making of Planet Earth is on Discovery tonight. I think I'll watch it, it looks quite interesting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
TAR: Funny that they're (more or less) in the US already. Also, Mirna uses those accents on purpose so people will understand her??? I can almost see it, if they way she spoke had any relationship to the way the people where they are speak.
Gah -- I hate her so much!

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
We love the Blue Planet BBC series. Will definitely check out Planet Earth.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
TAR: Wow, out of the six people left, there are five women! That's got to be a first.

Thrive to spite them
They sincerely think Charla and Mirna are a class act? After all the stuff.
I want the Beauty queens to win, they've been so strong and competent, and for the most part for me they've been the least annoying of the remaining teams.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, the blondies have totally won me over.
I was just working myself up into a lather over Mirna's "It's life and death that we get to the base!" until I remembered about the camera crew, so it's less likely that anyone literally believes them. I hope.

And I'm bummed out that D&O are out, but they lost legitimately -- they really fucked up over the last couple of legs.

Mirna uses those accents on purpose so people will understand her???
I almost fell off my couch when she said that. HA!
Oh, Danny and Oswald. It is one thing to deprive me of the pleasure of you on television in the finale, but quite another to say that Charla and Mirna are a class act. I can maybe buy Charla but not Mirna.
I had a horrible thought that it was reality tv foreshadowing!!!!!
