In this very special episode: The Idiot Boxers give their take on various season finales and prepare for others, in particular the LOST finale, which wasn’t aired at the time of recording. They also bitch about V at least three times in the show. They cover TV schedules for the fall, then Sound-Off about campaigns to save shows and homages to musicals before moving on to some TV-on-DVD and giving their Idiot Recommendations.

Kevin Carr proving yet again that Americans have NO IDEA when it comes to geography (or accents):
Anna Torv is AUSTRALIAN Where thew hell you got Welsh from is beyond me. She's actually of Estonian descent
Also, Gabrielle Anwar is NOT Irish. Her mother is English and her father is of Persian descent born in India,
NB: Wikipedia is there for a reason.

You got me. Though doesn’t Anwar have an accent?
And for Torv, I have no idea what a Welsh accent sounds like. I saw her on a BBC series and thought she was from Britain, and Welsh sticks in my brain.
But you’re right… our American ears can’t tell the difference between a lot of accents… just like a Brit, Aussie or practically anyone else can’t tell the difference between a regional American Midwest accent and a southern accent.
Such is life. But thanks for listening. 🙂
