is this going to be broadcasted in the US?

Bad news for American viewers:

While "Burn Up" will air here on Global and in the U.K. on BBC, it has yet to land an American network deal. The subject matter likely cuts a little to close to the bone during a U.S. presidential election year when gas prices are soaring and American car companies - especially those that sponsor TV shows - are hurting.

"Networks are sometimes afraid of these topics depending on where their politics are," she says. "When you're making a piece like this, there's got to be balance. You want to give adequate and accurate information and not feel that it is just sensationalist."

That and Bradley Whitford's character said *beep* last night!!



Guns don't kill people, people kill people and monkeys kill people (if they have a gun).

You are correct. I tried to watch Burn Up from where I am in the US, and the BBC iPlayer programs are only available in the UK. I gather it is a legal issue, and more to do with BBC/UK content than anything else. Someone mentioned the fact that in UK there is a TV user fee/tax, yet another hurdle for the export of UK content over the internet.
