About IRT Deadliest Roads (from HistoryAsia.com):

Taking three of the world's most experienced and tough truck drivers, IRT Deadliest Roads challenges them with one of the most dangerous environments in existence: the Himalayas. From traversing 1,000 ft. high cliffs, dodging avalanches and surviving both freezing and stifling temperatures tension and excitment are assured.

Three Reasons Why JR Loves This Show

1. It gives veteran truckers the challenge to traverse the World's Deadliest Roads (i.e. The Rohtang Pass or Pile of Corpses Pass in the Himalayas, The Yungas Road or Death Road in Bolivia).

2. It presents the existing cultures / traditions of different countries.

3. It includes a female trucker who will always push herself to the limit in every journey she shall take.

About The Simpsons (from TV.com):

Originally created by cartoonist Matt Groening, "Our Favorite Family," has graced the small screen in one form or another for over 20 years. The Simpson family first appeared on television as the subjects of interstitial "shorts" on The Tracey Ullman Show in April of 1987. The Simpsons remained a staple on The Tracey Ullman Show for three seasons until they premiered in their own half-hour series, on December 17, 1989. With the help of Jim Brooks and Sam Simon, Matt Groening's cartoon family turned into an instant success. Set in Springfield, the average American town, the show focuses on the antics and everyday adventures of the Simpson family; Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie, as well as a virtual cast of thousands. Since the beginning, the series has been a pop culture icon, attracting hundreds of celebrities to guest star. The show has also made name for itself in its fearless satirical take on politics, media and American life in general. Currently in its 21st season, The Simpsons has piled up over 440 episodes, over 20 Emmy Awards, a handful of music albums, countless endorsements and merchandise, and even made the jump to the silver screen in the summer of 2007 with The Simpsons Movie. And according to Matt Groening, "There is no end in sight." 

Why JR Loves This Show?

The Simpsons is my favorite TV show in JackTV. The Simpsons, after two decades of giving laughter to people worldwide, it is still standing strong and continuing its popular situation comedy. Though reportedly to end this 2011, The Simpsons has a lot of fans that it will kill the hearts of many if the show will end. The Simpsons remain one of JR's Favorite Cartoon Series in TV History. The Simpsons not just make a lot of individuals laugh but it also helps us express our opinions regarding our government and economy; that's what make The Simpsons unique from any other show.
