TV's proper shite today  why are all the people on 4 in a bed such petty, curtain twitching snobs. I'd like to watch a programme about squatters reviewing each other's places instead I think. Ideally presented by Richard Madeley or just watch Richard Madeley squatting (in the property sense of course :/ )

Did anyone see The Chase Roadtrip? It was the strangest programme I have seen in a long time. It's like The Chase meets Love Island meets The Learning Zone ( ) Shaun is sixty and looks like that

I assume none of the other Chasers wanted to spend any more time in Labbett's company than they absolutely had to

I remember a goon who went on the show saying he is a complete dickhead and apparently once went several days on the set without washing just to piss off the crew

there's been several posts ITT from people who've been/worked on the Chase all about how everyone on set absolutely loathes him on camera and off

Is he the one that the crew hid his refreshments so he had to go a whole show without them because he couldn’t come down from the room? Because you’ve got to be quite a bit of a dick for that.

not a bot posted:Second series of Back starting on Thursday was a nice bit of news. I was not expecting this show to come ba.....to return after so long, so finding out that it’s all on All4 or whatever it’s called now has been a very good surprise. I didn’t love season 1 but I’m definitely happy to see more. Also I am very sad about Year of the Rabbit getting un-renewed. loving COVID

I keep meaning to watch Year of the Rabbit and only now realized while reading up on it that two of the Black Books writers wrote it. Now I'm definitely gonna see it, I absolutely adore Black Books.

Now I'm definitely gonna see it, I absolutely adore Black Books. They're mercenary writers that have done loads of poo poo on loads of comedy. Including dross like Little Britain. And Gnomeo And Juliet! I wouldn't say they're REALLY black books writers, it's not like if it was Dylan Moran or Arthur Matthews.

Struggling to get the appeal of Google Box. I've been watching old seasons just to see glimpses of what was on during the relative air dates and then finding those original programs to watch lol Do people really like certain people on the program?

Here are the guest stars of the new series of Inside No 9: https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/news/6183/inside-no-9-series-6/ No word of when it will air, but I had no idea they had shot it, so that's great news.

Mickolution posted:Here are the guest stars of the new series of Inside No 9: Oooooh Lindsay Duncan! She's amazing. I adore Inside No 9 but the first watch of any episode is kind of terrifying because they're *demented* and you never know what the gently caress. Which is the point but I find I tend to enjoy my second time through more. I think that show scares me more than a lot of horror that's probably objectively more frightening just because you can't *trust* it. Amazing stuff.

HopperUK posted:Oooooh Lindsay Duncan! She's amazing. Agree completely. I think I watched all of the last couple of series when they aired and then later that week with some friends. I picked up on a lot more details the second time around. I think it's because when you watch a new episode, you don't even know what the tone or genre will be. It could be relentlessly grim (the kitchen sink style drama) or quite light (the one with David & his mother) with a dark streak. It shows how good it is that you can watch them again and again while knowing the twist and it's still great.

Alons fruit was amazing, but his.. it wasn't even a bowl.. was, uh.. hmmm. Since it was more about the fruit than the bowl, the right person left in terms of the brief. She should have said it was rotten though!

I know I'm late to the part on this, but we finally finished Taskmaster NZ and it was a delight. I admit it started a little slow, but the contestants and Alex Horne stand-in really grow on you as time goes on.

Yeah, in particular the eventual winner of the series really became my favourite after a few episodes and kept on shining after that. I also really love it when a series of TM reserves a spectacular task for the very end (like Taskonbury in UK S5) and with Make the best desert the Kiwis absolutely nailed it.

Anyone know if the early seasons of the great British bake off are worth watching? Trying to figure out where to start with the series.
