Television:

Only Canvas. No soaps or stupidmakers for me. Loved the Belgian quizes 'De slimste mens' and 'De pappenheimers'. The splendid 'Het programma van Wim Helsen' made me laugh, reportages, British humor (Monty Python, Fawlty towers, The fast show, Smack the pony, The young ones, Little Brittan), news, documentaries and everything that has to do with art and literature. Most beautiful documentary: 'De waanzin van het detail' about the work and vision of the genious painter Sam Dillemans.
