ALF?
I really don't watch tv at the right times, I guess. Remember when everyone was talking about "the Taster's Choice couple" years and years ago? I never saw any of them.

Huh?
Did somebody mention chefs?
My guess: Chen Kenichi, Hiroyuki Sakai, Masahiko Kobe, and Masaharu Morimoto. | Zeruel

As an aside, I recently read a MAJOR SPOILER regarding the future of Iron Chef. I mean MAJOR. Seriously. Don't click there. You'll regret it.

| #19 Posted on 7.2.02 0314.48 Reposted on: 7.2.09 0329.03 | Is the new Ripper show already on the BBC? If so, how do I get the BBC?
I saw that Alf commercial, too, which is to say I fast-forwarded through it while watching Buffy... man, Buffy was awesome last night. Anyway, all those commercial just annoy the shit out of me.
Did anyone see 24 last night? I've seen, like, 4 hours of it and I don't think I've seen a new show since November, but they're only up to like 10am... they still have 14 episodes to go. I thought I was really running behind, but maybe I'm not. I'm hoping FX will (at some point) run a bunch of the shows in sequence, like the ABC Cable channel did with Alias a few weeks ago (which i misses b/c I suck). | Excalibur05

That having been said, I'm almost positive that Ripper won't premier until this fall. |
