* Robin of Sherwood - 80s brit drama fantasy folk.

Those sound like shows I like! I haven't seen Robin of Sherwood, thanks for the pointer.

It feels a bit weird that I no longer find Seinfeld rewatchable—its like "hahaha! sociopaths!". Does anyone else find that? Also some of the 80s comedies with their vulgar misogyny. I guess a good tangent is, what shows did you like that aren't rewatchable any more?

I Survived a Japanese Game Show

Ten Americans, many of whom have never traveled beyond the borders of the United States, head to Japan to compete in the ultimate Japanese game show. Hilarity presumably ensues. The final winner will take home $250,000.

...which I found hilarious. They didn't know they were going to Japan! Fond memories of the wasabi-eating challenge...
