Taskmaster's really good. Aisling Bea is a treasure. Actually they all are, there's not a single one I hate. I'm rooting for Nish. I'm going back and watching the ones I haven't seen, like series 2, which turned me off right away by having The Teeth Rob Beckett, but turned me back on by having lovely Dave Gorman. On that note Dave Gorman's Modern Life is Good-ish is still pretty good. I don't know how he gets away with showing something stupid and then 35 minutes later going "yeah that was me" but I fall for it every time.

Bob Mortimer is the real treasure, he's just so weird and so naturally funny and there's nobody else remotely like him (except for Vic, but I don't think he's as extroverted and wouldn't be as good)

The thing I love about Bob is when he makes himself laugh and can't help it, it just makes things even funnier. He does it all the time on Athletico Mince. Liar penultimate episode was quite good, interesting to see how they wrap it up.

Perhaps not of deep historical significance, but today's the 30th anniversary of the initial airing of the first ever Chucklevision episode.

It's not quite how you remember, but there's still a couple of mildly funny bits in it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvBQ5R4REAg They really should get some kind of award for "Longest Running TV Show That Never Threatened To Be Anything More Or Less Than Modest Entertainment".

Which is the one who's into Britain First? Is it the same one who's married a girl 60 years younger than him? I have a hard time telling them apart.

I don't think he's all that into Britain First. Looks like he just liked one of their milder posts about not letting people who join IS back into the country. I mean, he's an old person on Facebook. It's what they do. I prefer the elaborate death hoaxes and weird rumours that always circulated. Did you know one of them autoerotic asphyxiated themselves in a brothel in Amsterdam?

Chucklevision is competent slapstick for children and I'm glad it exists even if it was never my favourite show when I was a kid (that was ZZZap! for some reason)

Knightmare was 100% my favourite show when I was a kid so I was pretty excited when they re-ran it on Challenge a few years back. I got about 10 minutes through one episode before deciding I'd prefer to keep it as a fantastic memory.

I do hope that all of you who were Fun House fans bought the album that Melanie and Martina, the Fun House twins, made. (You can also request a personalised video or get them to come to your party) Actually if you're going to buy the album it's cheaper to get it off Amazon Japan used even with international shipping ookiimarukochan fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Sep 27, 2017 |

I've been away, thread, away looking after a time consuming baby. I have been able to look up long enough to see there is a new series of the Apprentice on soon (oct 4th to be accurate) are we doing a thread this year, or has interest dropped so much that we should keep it here? I can't even remember last year's winner. Also yeah that Crystal Maze with the Furries was amazingly awful in the best way possible. They were the worst kind of nerds, and watching that fat one weebling about on the planet trying to jump off was the funniest bit of telly I've seen for ages. Imagine realising that you actually need physical prowess to do the puzzles, and that your doughy, weak body can't help you. Brill.

Shh. Also I like that Stephen starts channeling Mark when he's drunk. Taskmaster was good too. I dunno if Absinthe on toast, Bob Mortimer shoving pepper up his nose or nobody realizing Alex Horne had gone was the best.
