I loved British TV ever since I was able to start watching it due to streaming around 2010. Luther, Skins, Top Gear, and Peep Show were some of my early favorites. The amount of shows available, although across a significant number of streaming services, has only grown in the last decade plus. Check out these shows from the Live Channels on Freevee. At this very moment of me writing this, and probably you reading it, I am watching Grand Designs. Can’t get enough of Kevin and his house takes.

Grand Designs
About: In the last 3 months no human on earth has watched more Grand Designs than I. My Guinness World Record award is currently pending. I can’t get enough of this show: the genius and the hubris of these people that decide to “build their own homes”. I loathe some of them, but often I find the perseverance of them inspiring. Also there is Kevin, who holds back no punches on their lack of qualifications and often times insanity. I original got hooked on this show during first few months of Covid Pandemic, but that love has never gone away, and now you can watch 24/7 on Freevee.

Top Gear
About: Do I hate cars? Yes. Do I find one of the hosts of this show on par with Piers Morgan for British Unlikability? Yes. Do I love to see the stupid cars go vroom vroom? Also Yes. Duality of man. I contain multitudes. Etc. Some of the episodes are pretty meh, but often they are pretty fun.

BBC Home and Garden/Scifi/Comedy/Travel/Earth
About: The whole BBC gang showed up. We got Home and Garden. We got Scifi. We got Comedy. We got Travel. We got Earth. Imagine if the United States’ Public Broadcasting Service was as well funded as the BBC. These could all be PBS channels. A Ken Burns PBS Channel??? The dream.

BBC Antiques Road Show
About: If you thought American Antiques Road Show was pretentious, you ain’t seen nothing yet sister. I actually didn’t know the American Antiques Road Show (PBS!) was based on a British version! Well anyways, the British version is fun because 1) the accents, obviously and 2) the UK is just so much older than the US, and I think old things are just neat.

Reuters (News)
About: Sometimes you gotta watch the news. (Please do not watch the fascist friendly Live Now Fox channel.)
