#7 It's all started for the Saudis. In ten years, tune back in and Buthaina al-Nasr will be broadcasting the weather with no shirt on. Sweeps week can have a brutal effect on the content of television.

#10 Not to mention their answer to "The Mole": "The Jew".

"A tense, gripping show about a group of young jihadi whose ranks have been infiltrated by a Mossad agent. Tune in each week to see them guess which one is the infidel. The winner gets an expense-free trip to Paradise, accompanied by 72 doe-eyed virgins."

A sure hit.

#12 Sunday's opening news bulletin was delivered by female presenter Buthaina al-Nasr, modestly dressed in black headscarf and white jacket.
