    Lots of fun; why one owns a TV

    Maybe people are just too involved in the so-called reality programs to truly appreciate the quirky attrbutes of this show, but it was so short-lived it could not possibly have been given a real chance at success. Pity. Some have likened it to the Scooby Doo crew -- and they're right. Some have found it a bit trite, and they're right. But it was damned good fun and I'm glad I found it on BritBox.
