>I'm looking at you BBC/PBS-Masterpiece joints. What shows are you referring to?...

Well, new episodes of Top Gear are still on a multi-month delay, aren't they?

We used to have that problem with Dr. Who, but I think that's now a day-after thing.

This season of Top Gear was airing on BBC America about a week after the UK.

That's good to know, I wasn't sure.

I know the Christmas special was aired quite late, and I remember a few years ago when they made a Vuvuzela joke and instantly made it clear that they were on a 6-12 month delay.

The 2012 Christmas special only aired in the UK this May if I remember rightly - they joked about it being ridiculously late.

that would have been on on Xmas day, surely. May could have been a repeat.

The day after thing with Dr. Who is because it's airing at the same local time in the US as it does in the UK I believe, which is perfectly reasonable to me, i'd rather not have to watch it at something like 5am :)
