TV Burp was a good show, and I'll fight anyone who disagrees:

Jamie Oliver is a knob. I liked the TV Wipe segment on him where they pointed out he was OK shilling unhealthy foods via Sainsbury’s, as long as they were ‘posh’.

I think he killed the turkey twizzler industry. You just don’t hear about them anymore.

My abiding memory of the Jamie Oliver Era is parents who objected to "healthy" school canteen menus delivering food from the local chippy at and passing them through the playground fence, with all these kids stretching their hands out between the railings like they're in a prisoner of war camp.

Sara Pascoe is one of those people that’s all about feelings and “open your mind” and as a result says a lot of stupid, airy-fairy poo poo.

I don't like Jamie Oliver because he looks like he'd shed in the food.

Didn't he once try to show that poor people have only themselves to blame because they could save hundreds of pounds by cooking sixty pizzas, storing them in a gigantic loving freezer everyone presumably has, and then eating them for dinner every night for two months instead of buying something nice.

I used to think that these parents were so under the sway of the appetites of their own children that they felt some how compelled to just keep feeding them that poo poo. Then I realised that theres a good chance they were doing it just to gently caress off the patronising TV chef who has turned up to tell them that they're all a bunch of idiots.

I hope at least one of them was only doing it to spite a condescending middle class prick of a chef who assumes people eat unhealthy food because they just don't know any better.

His restaurants are so bad. Pizza Express does better pasta than Jamie’s Italian. Fifteen was overpriced and bland. Glad I wasn’t paying for that one.

Yea. He's the ultimate example of a centrist who just can't imagine things that aren't exactly like his experience.

I lost interest in him when I got a copy of his thirty minute meals and realised they were 30 minutes, plus prep, and only if you have an absolutely massive kitchen and so many pots and pans you don’t need to wash anything between making courses / dishes.

The fact that he didn’t do the photography for the book in his own house, but borrowed his mate’s with the massive kitchen tells you what you need to know.

Oliver is really mad about minimum wage and working hours limits. People should have to suffer for his lovely fake Italian chain food

I really enjoyed it but it was a really boring ending, I wish they'd done it some other way.

Had a bash at watching Hard Sun, but it just made me feel really uncomfortable. I hate end of the world stuff.

It's just a police drama but they're uncovering a conspiracy at the highest level of government!! That you learn fast but still, it's not paticularly stupid.

I haven't seen it yet, but the comments about Hard Sun don't seem surprising. It was created and written by Neil Cross, the man behind Luther, so its sounds like it follows in the same style of "this is a bit silly but its a lot of fun so don't worry about the details".
