There's a Britcom called "The IT Crowd" about a small IT department in a huge British corporation: two socially-inept but technologically brilliant guys; one just plain weird guy who lives in the server room and only comes out at night; and their manager who is a people person, knows almost nothing about computers, but who is perfectly willing to accept that she doesn't know anything about computers.
They just finished their second season, and the DVD for the second season came out October 1st. The fact that the DVDs are only available for Region 2 is probably irrelevant for any IT person who wants to watch the DVDs, and certainly not a good enough reason for IT people to not watch this show.
Anyway, during Season 2 a show opened with an "Anti-Piracy" Ad which is just priceless.
As an aside, I'm fairly certain that NBC is picking this up to show in the states. And by 'picking up' I mean making an American version.
