AWESOME!!!  I hope Patton brings Dylan Millford out to Jersey.  I heard that Patton joined that Spike fanclub, of which Dylan is president, of course.

Can you ask the Look Around You guys if there will ever be a Region 1 DVD release of their show?

Wow. Going to be another amazing show. I'd like to hear Robert and Peter dish the details on Tarvuism and the involvement of Tim and Eric.

In case you haven't seen them, I recommend Robert Popper's Timewaster series of books and letters and phonecalls. Here's a fave of mine. http://www.robincooper.co.uk/carwash.php

Look Around You is a perfect bit of British comedy.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I vote for this also.

Seriously, I'd love to have the whole series on DVD.  I just started watching this in Jan. when AS aired Series 1 and it's brilliantly funny.  I'm enjoying the shift to 30 min. in the second season.

People should feel free to write their questions here, because I dont know if I'll be able to put calls on the air.

Thanks!

Tom.

Ask them if they've ever seen any of the American contemporaries of the early '80s science program(me)s Look Around You sends up -- stuff like 3-2-1 Contact or Mr. Wizard's World -- and if so, if they could remark on the cultural differences.

Does this mean "yay"?

If so, then I totally agree.

From what I can tell, it means "Hello" in Tarvuist.

Tom, it may be too early for them to talk at length about the Tarvu project, but I'm incredibly curious about it. The depth of the Tarvupedia is so impressive. I also love how straight it's played (98% of the time) in the videos. I'd like to know how long they've been working on writing all that backstory as well as what format the eventual show will take. Thanks!

YES
