A Brilliant Peice Of Television Art

This show aired on SBS down here in australia about 3 years back and was taken off air the next (or same) year. The brilliant, and in my opinion, original, idea of this show is that it is 'interactive' and can also appeal to those 'reality tv lovers' out there.

The shows website (which has now been taken down by SBS) was a means for the viewers (some who stayed hooked to the site even a year after the show was cancelled) to send in story lines to the writers of the show, which would then be used to create a story "THE SAME NIGHT" and they would record the show and air it later that day. The show takes place on a train after an average work day, the characters (which were quite well writen and beleivable) would talk about thier day at work, thier lives, and issues currently in the news (REAL NEWS)

The show had a replacement (24/7) which was hardly as fun, or interesting than Going Home.
