Darts has been on TV for years and years. God I miss the days of Jim Bowen and Bullseye. I was just a kid at the time but that program was great.

i always watch the darts finals on bbc! It can get a little boring, but when the scores are level it gets quite exciting watching the players get stressed and then coming back with a 180 and the place erupts!

I practically paid my way through college playing darts (and piano) in an bar in Berkeley, Calif. Lots of Americans play darts but I must admit I have never seen it on television.

I liked darts, both my parents were good darts players, I watched the final and thought it was good. Wanted King to win and he didnt
