Reality TV Obsession - November 2008

My appreciation for the BBC has only grown over time, even though the news they post on their website comes in rancid little drops, with hardly any depth.

The television channels, though, seem like a wonderful medium for a terrific variety of shows. I say this only because I've never watched it, instead watching the BBC programmes on DVD, after they've become famous.

Perhaps my favourite would be "The Office", the mockumentary about a paper manufacturer, and the dead-end jobs of the white-collar workers.




The popularity of the show is echoed by how many version have been made: the most well-known in the US, but also in France, Germany, Brazil, and even in Quebec, where it was relabelled "Le Job".

InsertCulture has a list of the 10 Best BBC Shows, with The Office making an appearance.

In addition to dramas and comedies, they also listed the incredible nature documentaries by David Attenborough, who found out that nature was weird, wonderful and, sometimes, perverted.

From a sexual moment between two slugs:




Is that gross, or strangely hypnotic and beautiful?
