I think Little Britain was going for the repitition comedy much like "The Fast Show". Which was nice.

Hey, guys, comedy is subjective. Admittedly this means that Jim Davidson still sells tickets, but it's a thing we have to accept.

Does anybody know when the next (final?) series of Peep Show will broadcast? Wasn't it about this time last year that a series started showing? I do hope they end it after the next one. There really wasn't anything new in the last series and I felt there was something very off about it in terms of plot and timing. Come to think of it, I remember actually wincing a little when they used Mark's efforts to get his book published as a thread in the series. Business Secrets of the Pharaohs was funny to me because it was a thing that was never going to happen. I mean all the humour is already in the title and seeing the inevitable disastrous consequences just felt gratuitous. Some things are more funny when left to the imagination

Yeah, it was much better as just a passing reference. For example, imagine if, next series, they actually make a plot point of him learning to play clarinet. Since that was always mentioned alongside finishing BSotP.

Those earlier mentions of "White Van Man" as a top BBC3 series just make me feel crushingly disappointed that they didn't steal probably the best last Peep Show joke in recent years, and call it "Men with Ven".

One of you is that Jamie spunkrag that was on Only Connect tonight. Please admit to it and PM me your address, to save me the effort of hunting you down and strangling you to death.

He's been on every sodding quizshow possible over the past few years. Only Connect, Pointless, University Challenge...he's clearly angling to become some sort of smug hipster TV personality. I agree. He needs strangled. Possibly with his own anime headband.

The one who was on UC and got quite far? I'm wondering if it's a bet that's been dragged out too far..

Apparently he was the one who said "jizz" as an example of a word ending in "zz" on Pointless. He did post this vaguely sweet message in support of Emma from Only Connect, who is again getting slaughtered on Twitter: quote:Jamie Karran @NoDrNo

Well, that takes the wind out of my vitriolic sales. Also did anyone catch that University Challenge had a question about first messages sent through various media including twitter, SMS and telegraph, which aired a week after a question on OC about first messages sent through various media including twitter, SMS and the telegraph. Do the question setters share an office or something?

I always thought Little Britain ripped a ton of phrases from Reeves & Mortimer, especially Barons Nightclub. Given Matt Lucas's relationship with Vic & Bob I doubt they'dve been bothered but it did get played out to gently caress after one series. Tom Baker owned on the voiceovers though.

Like if you went to a different pub quiz every night for a week you'd get a couple of the same questions at some point.

He could single handedly save a bunch of transvestite Jew puppies from the clutches of the Nazis...oval office still needs a strangling. Believe me Jamie, it's for your own good.

I couldn't believe the Twitter hate for Emma. This loving country, eh? They were a great team. I also can't believe they got the ice hockey question right and I didn't and I'm the biggest hockey fan god DAMMIT gently caress you Wayne Gretzky.

What am I missing? I remember him on UC and he seemed lovely. Although perhaps anybody would seem lovely when the camera keeps cutting to Jeremy Paxman's twisted, spiteful, miserly old patrician underpants face every few seconds. You guys aren't just angry because you think he needs a haircut are you? Imagine being laid up in hospital and having a doctor done up as Zaphod Beeblebrox come to look after you. That's a happy thought for me, anyway.

When I saw him on Only Connect I was horrified - It's anime headband band, no! But I warmed to him, he seemed nice. He kind of owns his nerdiness. And everybody on there yesterday evening was a spitting image of people I went to university with.

Don't worry, plenty more contestants to make fun of. One guy on last night's University Challenge had Beer for a surname. He has a catchphrase for when people invite him to parties (it's "well you can't have a good party without Beer!") He's never had opportunity to use it.

He was probably driven to being a trivia nerd because people wouldn't stop saying that.

Sorry to ruin high-brow-gameshow-and-lovely-contestant chat but there's definitely going to be a new series of Weekly Wipe (probably in January), so we can now start wow-poo poo-haircut-Brooker chat. New series will have Philomena Cunk, Barry Shitpeas, and now Limmy, and hopefully no more awkward guest spots. And there'll be a 2013-Wipe at the end of the year. lets go swimming fucked around with this message at 16:44 on Nov 5, 2013 |

Still really liking Man Down. Rik Mayall is amazing in it. Greg Davies is pretty good as well. Poor Duncan.

Weekly Wipe's great an' all, but a show with that format really needs to be on more than 6 times a year (or it 5 plus a clip show?).
|
# ? Nov 5, 2013 17:49 |
Maybe they might be a hour long this time? Instead of 45 minutes ending with those awkward interviews like last time.

An hour-long Monthly Wipe would probably work. Enough time to let stories develop, let media spirals do their up and down, develop ideas and get everything down pat. Nobody seems to like monthly series though, so it would never work.

I finally watched the series premiere of Fresh Meat. Good to see that the show's as good as ever, I just hope they don't draw out the Kingsley/Josie/Heather love triangle thing for too long.

I hope the triangle all goes hideously wrong in the next two episodes, once Josie inevitably returns from Southampton Uni. It was a decent opening episode, Vod continues to be gloriously awful and the character of JP continues to be the finest thing Jack Whitehall will ever do. Howard broke my heart at the end though. Poor, self-sabotaging Howard.
