write that down in your copybook

i discovered this fantastic show when i got my first tivo, back when i still had it set to give me ridiculous recommendations based on my thumbs-up approval of other shows, and by the way, do you know that tivo thinks i should be watching "most extreme challenge" AND an 18-hour miniseries about how to make paper? in any case, at least this one was a winner, along with all the episodes in the series.
