Fave: Green Wing: "First Date Rules"

I loved BBC America's Green Wing that aired a few years ago.  They only aired Season One over here in The States (which is lame they didn't finish the series here), but I got addicted to what I could see (there was also a season two and a Christmas Special-- those Brits sure love Christmas Specials).

It's been years since I've seen it, so it was tough to decide what clip to show, but I remember loving the line at the end of this clip. Totally cracked me up.  Green Wing was one of the first non-American shows I had ever seen, and the joke in this clip made it abundantly clear that BBC America was a world away from the stuff I had seen in America.

I've been bummed for years that I haven't seen the rest of the series-- especially when they haven't (and probably won't) make a Region One DVD release (just Region 2 for the European market so far)-- but I tried hulu.com on a whim and see that they have the first and second seasons. Awesome.

Well, here's the clip (from Season One, Episode One):
