This Is Modern Art

This Is Modern Art was a six-part TV series written and presented by the English art critic Matthew Collings. It was broadcast in 1999 on Channel 4. The series won several awards including a BAFTA. It became popular both because of its sometimes jokey and sometimes thoughtful explanations of the work and attitude of a new wave of artists that had recently been publicized in the British mass media, and because of its author's witty and irreverent, though clearly highly informed, commentary style. Collings went on to create several more TV series and programmes for Channel 4, including Impressionism Revenge of The Nice, Self Portraits The Me Generations and This Is Civilisation.

For The Love of...

Late night panel/table discussion which journalist Jon Ronson hosts on strange, and occasionally not so strange, topics. Many of the guests are people who claim to participate in or study these topics. On the more mundane side, we hear from people who keep fish, are Sikhs, top models or are fans of Lewis Carroll... on the more exotic side we hear from people who claim to be able to time travel, who French kiss their parrots, hold Diana conspiracy theories and belong to flying saucer religions. Ronson is impartial throughout, and does not tend to criticise his four, five or six guests. He occasionally cracks a joke which goes over their heads, but that's it. Most of the time the guests are able to give their opinion freely within the allotted time.

The Tromaville Cafe

The Tromaville Cafe was a television program broadcast by the BBC in the United Kingdom from 1997–2000 that would regularly showcase classic Troma films. Episodes of the show have appeared on numerous DVD releases from Troma and is one of the most sought out television shows in their library. The episodes were known for their cheap quality and off-colour humour, which was and still is today rare for a television sitcom. The show featured Lloyd Kaufman as himself, different actors portraying Toxie, Paul Krymse as Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D., Stephen Blackehart as Felix the French Trickster and scantily clad Tromettes playing waitress/action news reporters. Another regular on the show was Joe Fleishaker who portrayed Troma VP and co-founder Michael Herz.

Nationwide

Nationwide is an Irish television programme broadcast on RTÉ One every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening at 19:00, around 35 minutes long. It is currently presented by Anne Cassin and Mary Kennedy. The programme focuses on human interest stories and cultural events across the island of Ireland, generally but not solely outside of Dublin. The show is produced by RTÉ Cork. It, along with Capital D, a programme featuring Dublin, serves a similar purpose to the occasional RTÉ attempts to regionalise news and human interest content in the past, albeit without the increased technology and transmission costs, which would likely require total re-engineering of the country's transmission and cable television networks. Nationwide itself was the sole programme regionalised in recent times, but this has now ceased. Nationwide is the brainchild of Michael Ryan. On 20 December 2011, Anne Cassin was announced as Michael Ryan's replacement as presenter following his retirement.
