Friday night shows.

Hey hey, I'm back at it. Time off was great, but now it's time to get at the serious stuff. TV isn't fun you know.

For fans of French comics check out Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatre at 7PM on CBC French. Yeah it's in French but it is a joyous and faithful rendition of the popular historical comic. Stars Gerard Despardieux.

At 8pm on TCM they have 1776. A so so version of you know what.

At 11pm the Discovery Channel has The Pharaoh's Lost City.

And at 12 History Television has Lost Worlds: Athens-Ancient Supercity. Note the lack of mega here. At 1am they have Dogfights: Long Odds, at 2am they have another episode of Lost Worlds: Knights Templar.

And to round off the evening the History Channel has 3 Ganglands in a row starting at 8pm. Lucky us.

Tomorrow I'm back with a brand new obsession: world's fairs.
