There is a web-cast television "channel": Baduk TV
Here are some television programs that reference
the game of Go.
- 2004: Andromeda - Episode #84 (production code 418) - There is a dialog-only reference to Go while Dylan and Indra are on their way to the maze on the planet:
- Dylan: I am excellent at Go.
- Indra: [...] I can beat anyone at Go.
- 2004: Arrested Development: episode #122 (1st season's finale?). I was just flipping channels, but it looked like a couple of kids might have been playing Go at the end of the episode. Anyone familiar with the show know if it was Go or not?
- 2004: 24: Some bad guys are hiding out in a club, and when the authorities raid it, we notice some people in other rooms of the club playing Go. In a following scene, they are interrogating a suspect in one of those rooms and the interrogator throws a bowl (+stones) off the table.
- 2003: Enterprise: Season 2 Ep 22 'Cogenitor' A traditional four legged goban with a nearly completed game between Trip and a visiting alien is shown from above and then in some extreme closeups as each player captures a single stone. The alien asks if this means she/he/it (third gender) has won, and Trip exclaims that he has not lost a game in two years.
- 2001: Andromeda - Captain Dylan Hunt and the Nietzschian, Tyr Anasazi, play a variant of Go, possibly 3D, in several episodes in the first season. In at least one, Dylan starts with White.
- Deadly Games episode of Diagnosis Murder, starring Dick van Dyke. A Goban, bowls, and stones appear and are referred to as "weichi" (probable pronunciation).
- 2000 - 2001? TakeNGive saw a music video by the pop-rock band "Creed", which may have had three or four scenes featuring two people playing Go -- but wasn't paying attention until too late; can anyone confirm this sighting?
- Brief view in an episode of Ally McBeal.
- Diamond, UK TV serial. An actor is seen playing Go and a Goban is in the background in more than one episode. (That wouldn't be Jon Diamond, would it :) ?)
- Dutch Jeugd Journaal (news for kids) reported some news about the game of Go and filmed at the ING tournament in March. Also Guo Juan and another Go player explained some parts of the game.
- Kamen Rider 555 episode 1. Yuji's uncle is reading a book and playing Go while talking about Yuji's father's business.
