justcola posted:On Dolphins: Spy In The Pod, are their two spy animals at all times to film the other spy animal? About half of the footage is of the spy animal filming dolphins. Also CGI has made it so I'm not entirely sure if the dolphins are real or 3D graphics running on a quadcore processor. I felt sure that most of the good footage was filmed by a cameraman in a scuba suit, and the whole gimmick of spy animals is pointless. I will always laugh at the disconcerting cameramals they cobble together though.

Green Wing posted:Well, House of Fools is odd. I think I like it. It's very stupid and some people will probably hate it for its "random"ness, but that's always been Vic and Bob's thing. And it has Matt Berry. It's hit and miss but at least one gets the impression the shows makers are finding it funny, rather unlike other shows where it seems the writers script things not because they're funny but because people at home are thought so little of as to laugh at it.

Sion posted:No he's got a point we should get back to complaining/masturbating about/over BBC3. On the one hand it has some things like Cuckoo* and that episode of Uncle was very funny. On the other hand it consistently gives airtime to idiots named Russell. I think I can just about take the good with the bad. I think it gets picked on a bit unfairly, for instance I can't remember the last time I watched anything at all on any ITV channel. *I'm not sure if that was actually any good, but one of my flatmates is a massive hippy and looks pretty much exactly like him, so that alone was worth watching it for.

ITV is miles worse than anything BBC3 produces. I'm with XMNN, I can't remember the last time I watched anything on any of the ITV channels. At least BBC3 has the occasional good thing.

Broadchurch was magnificent, only truly great thing ITV have done in years. And I liked Poirot, but that's finished now, bar the endless repeats on ITV3. (I enjoyed a good game of Who's That Character Actor while watching Poirot, as I did with Sharpe.) That's all. Can't think of a single other ITV programme I made time for in the past four or five years; and even if I did, STV probably wouldn't show it anyway. Stupid regional variations...

ITV is so underwhelming for me that I didn't even watch Breathless even though it looked good and had Catherine Steadman and Jack Davenport for me to dreamily stare at. And 95% of the reason for me watching something is because I want to stare dreamily at someone that is in it.

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking she was being a bit of a bitch compared to the usual contestants. Omid Djalili is the exact opposite of Jo Brand, and that is definitely an improvement.

Oooft, I wouldn't like to be getting on the wrong side of her. Loving how Michael Ball just dyed his teeth royal blue by absent-mindedly licking the spoon containing his food colouring though. I've done that. You need steel wool and an industrial abrasive powder to get it off.

I always forget how much I like Ray Mears, he's so much better than Bear Grylls. If you ended up in the wilderness with Ray you'd spend your time eating leaves and making things out of bits of wood, but Bear Grylls would make you eat bear vomit or something just because it's disgusting.

Stewart Lee also loves that moment. I can't believe he'd hate such a classic moment in TV comedy history. The guy does not strike me as a hater.
