I wonder if this will fit into this show somehow, or if they just dumped this video of Jeremy riding, what in the motorcycle world, is the equivalent of a Toyota Prius.

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/dri...cle4963194.ece

It will be funny to see him riding a scooter in Vietnam, but nowhere near as funny as it might be to see him doing in a developed country.

The tv guides are fucked up, they all say 1 hour and they all describe episode 7.


EDIT: This is bullshit... why repeat 7?

It seems that some torrent group had forgotten that the episode aired on last Sunday (21/12) was actually re-airing of episode 7images/smilies/dry.gif
They thought it is episode 8 and they put a torrent on the net marked with S12E08...

Let's see if they will recognize the real Ep.8 into Ep.9...

Is it the 27th or the 28th?

According to this article, it airs "tomorrow". This article was written on Friday the 26th. So which day is it?

The episode's airing the 28th. Either the Fail can't tell time or this article's going to be in the Saturday paper.
