I must admit I watched about half of the come dance with me/so you think you can dance program on bbc1 last saterday. Now ostensibly I was only doing it as didn't have anything better to do wanted to look at barely dressed cute chicks, however I discovered a much better way to watch the program. Basically you try to guess which of male dancers isn't a blatant flaming homosexual before he talks. Its amazing, before I got sick of myself for watching it there was one guy who didn't have the affects.

Strom Cuzewon posted:Ignoring the really creepy homophobia here, I think you can feel comfortable watching So You Think You Can Dance. It's not like the usual reality TV where the haul out the dregs just to mock them, these people actually have talent. They genuinely CAN dance, and they're good. I was in stitches all through the ballet dancer's Japanese-style-hip-hop last wee.

I had to google Andy Parsons to find out who he was after the above comments and now I have a name to put to that annoying voice on some Radio 4 programs ive heard over the years.

Kerbtree posted:iPlayer has then up for a week in full quality, 4od has them in perpetuity in, what? 320x240? That's your tradeoff. 1) Just think of all the people who dont bother with the TV license. 2) The people who share one. 3) The hardware to make it work reliably, pricy. 4) Are we sharing this with the rest of the world (thats a polital descision and the answer must be no surely, you dont see loving ABC in the USA letting us stream their stuff unless you sneak around it with a VPN) 5) The anti-competition poo poo as noted above from sky and whatever. It will happen one day but they just gotta work poo poo out.

Hah, love the headline list on that. Btw all Blakes 7 is available on a youtube channel if you look for it. Its actually pretty good (apart from the fx which are ropey to say the least)

Daktar posted:Does anyone remember a kid's show that ran for an entire summer holiday many, many years ago? It had this character named Reg who wore a sort of plastic hat in the shape of a quiff, and he looked vaguely like a 50s rocker. I may be remembering incorrectly, but I think it also had Mark Speight presenting, and he tended to wear a blue suit and had very, very blonde hair. Also, they showed the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon. So no sorry, not a clue what you on about. Head doctor?

The last episode of smallville on 4oD atm was pretty drat good (if you are into superman and all that crap) It was a very well done, well directed, well acted episode involving alternate realities and stuff, well worth a watch.

We should probably just pack in the whole watching or supporting big brother thing. It was interesting in the first series because it was new and novel, now its just spanking the dead monkey. And can someone track down and violently murder whatever shithole agent who is making those jedward fucks still a part of media? I'm sure they are really nice chaps in person but ... its enough now. Id rather see loving Noal Edmonds and Lenny Henry back on tv.

Ben Soosneb posted:Last I heard he was trying to make a living doing things like radio and television in public, whilst at the same time pretending that he wasn't. Apparently he's now burrowing himself under his lawn and shouting "do you know who I am" at the moles. From wikipedia (who knows how accurate): "Lamarr presents a music show for British Airways on-board listeners as part of their in-flight entertainment. In this show he presents a mix of rock and roll, blues, reggae, soul and R 'n B." Hmmm.

Leyburn posted:Lamarr's Rock and Roll show and Alternative 60s show on Radio 2 were both excellent. "At the end of 2010 Lamarr left Radio 2, claiming the station has lost interest in non-mainstream music" Guess not. I really enjoyed those as well

MisterLizard posted:Having spent my New Year's Eve catching up on iPlayer stuff wot I missed, can I commit heresy by saying that Charlie Brooker no longer impresses me? The whole 2011 review show came across as a kind of smug Guardian-reading media-savvy commentary on the year's events. Ive also checked out Black Mirror on your recommendation and that first one was superb, gonna do the others at some point. So thanks for that! Though 4oD's ads really get on my nerves, do they really need that income? I thought they were getting a cut of the license fee these days and they have their live broadcast ads as well. If they do I don't care its not that annoying but it seems slightly like a 'lets grab some more cash' decision, they didn't used to have them.
