They get most shows, it's usually just a question of whether they are on the regular stations (usually dubbed), or cable (often VO). It's eye-opening to watch the comedies dubbed because (IMO) they lose a lot. Friends was hugely popular and I gained a new appreciation for the actors when I realized how much of that show was in the delivery.

And there are shows that I only saw living in France, where it was jarring to finally hear the real voices of some of the actors in later shows. Julian McMahon, I'm looking at you.

Is this where we talk about TheA Daily Show? Cause last night Jon had me laughing so hard I was crying. He was just snarking and riffing about the coverage of the New Hamshire primary but it was all great!

Man, I think those were the last MNIE and 30 Rock, and they even had finale-ish feels to them.
