Now, has anyone seen the new South Park episode following the presidential election? Hilarious!

But, yes, even the TV tie-in board games tend to be trivia-heavy and/or based fairly strictly on game shows. I’m just hanging out for the Taken Out game…

My special fancy – in whatever configuration – isn’t going to work for you because it specifically identifies you as a US IP so as to be able to access the US sites.

You’d probably be best with our local BT community, Diwana. It has good coverage of local TV content. Let me know if you need an invite.

I think when Trivial Pursuit took off it destroyed the TV board game – now they all seem to be Trivia-based. How great would it be if you could buy a Lost game where Jack has to avoid the killer smoke?

I think the 7.30 Report would be a brilliantly inappropriate show to base a game on. Maybe you have to reunite Kerry with a grren pen – or use Kerry’s green pen to battle aliens.

Or the Enough Rope game, where you have to make the guest cry when you get half-way round the board…

The question was related to last week’s discussion (making it perfectly timed for next week’s *shifty eyes*) and was: What’s the most inappropriate show from which to make a board game? Being the Daniel Kilby duly credited over at Outland, I suggested Dexter, with cards like “You accidentally killed Deb; go back 3 spaces” or perhaps “Found Camille’s perfect Key Lime Pie, roll again”. A board game of The Tudors would also be somewhat surreal.

Just type in the address for the ABC website and click through to the Coming Soon section – you should be able to see a preview.

If that doesn’t work, do a search for ‘anonymous proxy’ and you should find something.

Q: Haven’t you got a mate in da biz who can send you a copy?

Now, a most vital matter. What is Brett’s special fancy and how does it work? It’s a most urgent inquiry to do with a certain four-part series starting on ABC1 on Monday night. Some of us will simply convulse if we can’t see it from our distant locales.
