Their Bullshit series, which purports to do some critical thinking about popular misconceptions, is absolutely awesome

I envy you lucky dogs in the states who'll get it if you've got showcase; I've got to wait for the DVDs.

Anyone who's seen it, list your favourite episodes. Mine are;
Environmental Hysteria: Getting hippies to sign a petition against dihydrogen monoxide (H2O for the ones without a periodic table

) while a co-founder of greenpeace laments the organization being taken over by people with a political agenda.

Eat This: Why people living in a spacious house in florida should shut the **** up about what starving people around the world should and shouldn't eat, how one man saved a billion lives, and why greenpeace has its head up its ass about genetically engineered foods.

Any of the religion ones

I've never made the effort to watch them. If they are on something while flipping channels, I'll watch for a very brief moment.
