The NPR news quiz will present a televersion of its year in review show on BBCA on Dec. 23, one day before its radio broadcast--somewhere else BBCA said it picked "Wait, Wait" because of the British tradition of TV and radio panel games (but I can hear the expats and Anglophiles wondering why they don't show "Have I Got News for You" instead):
