    Okay. This is an easy one.

    "Unprincipled cad takes on various incarnations throughout English history; verbally abusing the stupid, conning the pantaloons off the powerful, and generally weaseling his way out of every situation until he finally "buys it" in the Great War."

    This is a no-brainer, y'all, and has probably already been done before.

    Blackadder 2 through 4? The comments don't apply as well to the first series.

    @Harbourboy:

    "Blackadder" it is -- he did do a lot of "weaseling" in the first series, although I always thought that Baldrick came off as the "smarter one" in Series 1 (and that's still not really saying much). However, regardless of series, he remained an unprincipled cad throughout -- even when he was the "good" Ebeneezer Blackadder he still insulted everyone mercilessly.

    You are correct. Sorry for the confusion. Your turn.

    This game show is strangely addictive, despite its blindingly simple premise, which involves nothing more than random guesses and a basic understanding of the laws of probability.

    We'll change that last on a bit...

    The completely moronic adventures of an overweight, drug-addicted, self-absorbed former Guess Model.

    I liked that show. What does that say about me? :hmm:

    This woman's husband always wanted to know just one more thing.

    I had to look this up. You win. I'm even a fan of the lead actress and would never have gotten it.

    A hint for everyone else: It was Captain Janeway's first series as the lead actress.
