It's a travel show, and it's about booze from all over the world! It combines two of my most favourite things. Why oh why have I not heard of this show before?!The premise: The host, Zane, travels the world sampling the local drinks and associated culture that go with them. And he gets drunk. And that's one thing I really like about this show. They don't edit that bit out. Each episode often ends with the morning after and Zane sampling a local hangover cure. Last night's show about Croatia was fantastic.
The other thing I like about this show is that it has its own drinking game. And during the show you are encouraged to play along. It's not some lame internet game, it's actually promoted as part of the show. Here are some of the main rules:
- (I think this is the most important one) When Zane takes a drink, you take a drink.
- There is a stuffed monkey named Pleepleus (Zane's drinking buddy) that might appear on the screen. When it does the first person to spot it takes a drink.
- When someone burps you all must give the "good burp" sign. The last person to do this has to take a drink.
- If Zane mentions his mate Steve everyone takes a drink.
Oh, and there's even a movement called "Sheet It Forward" where when you see a fellow 'Three Sheets' fan sporting 'Three Sheets' or Pleepleus merchandise, you simply buy him or her a drink... A way to be kind to your fellow man and sheets fan.
I heart this tv show. I think I'll buy the DVD so I can watch it over and over and over again. Bottoms up!

This sounds really fun... and he's cute too! :)
Damned sobriety! >:(
Sobriety is overrated. Unless you're driving.
Don't worry. Foxtel shows episodes of this show over and over. You'll be able to watch it for the rest of your life.
