What's the significance of the 1 hour 7 minutes 1 second? (Did I miss the
episode with that reference?) Is the series ending tonight, or is it a few
seasons behind over there? Over here it's so big every set in America will
be tuned to it (ridiculous as this sounds, it is no exageration) and other
competitive channels are airing adds to their viewers to watch it, and Nick-
at-Nite's TV land (different channel) isn't even providing programming during
that time slot. I'm happy to say I've been watching for years, and have not
just joined the end of series bandwagon. Now you know how big it is over here,
does anything compare any where else? And are they showing the last episode?
