Antique Road Show

I now know why Elvis shot his TV. He was watching Antique Road Show from North Dakota.

Have you ever seen that coke commercial in which the kid approaches not without trepidation Mean Joe Green on his way to the locker room? Well, Tintin, I've got an award for you at my place. Come see.

I feel your pain. My somewhat recent addiction of sorts is the BBC's 'Cash in the Attic', a somewhat more cheeky and entertaining version of the Antiques Roadshow.

Tessa- Thank you from the bottom of my Ft Monroe moated heart.

heavy tweed- Even the Road Show originated from a far better BBC series of the same name.

Televison has introduced a rot in the land where Gross National Happiness counts for more than Gross National Product.

My husband said upon the closing of the show that we would never live in North Dakota! The feedback booth was probably a slice of the culture at its most representative.

Anon 10:55- For liberals and conservatives both.

Anon 12:35- It was very scary and Keno doing a $1,500 appraisal was just sad.
