My Tv license is paying for shows like "Is oral sex safe?" on BBC3 hosted by some yoof actress, ironically im in it's target demographic and i cant understand why this is getting commissioned? Does having sex in the title, or whole premise bring in that many more viewers?

Starting to get a morbid curiosity about this only way is essex show. Kinda want to watch an episode filled with these barely sentient humanoids but ill probably just feel really nasty after it.

haywire posted:It seems to be getting ever increasingly common for large companies to hire comic personalities to do their ads. Kinda depressing, I can't imagine it's a hard life being a massively popular TV personality, so selling out to adverts just seems greedy. On the other hand, it doesn't really affect anything (like musicians watering down their sound for well paying contracts), so I guess it's okay. Robert Webb Doing voice-over work doesnt make peep show less funny, does it? its not like the horrible product placement that you get in some shows in america. Unless it's got something directly to do with the comedians work then i dont see the problem? Stand-up doesn't seem to pay that well, so thats why some comedians do it, others do it when they are in-between series'. If an voice over ad for like toilet roll ruins a comedian for you then Also micheal mcintyre is reported "physically to not be able to watch impressions of himself". The guy cant seem to handle anything but praise in my opinion. That said a lot of hate is simply because he is popular and he has shows on BBC1 instead of BBC4. Personally he reminds me of peter kay except without the nostalgia, he can be funny but its 99% just crap. Ponce de Le0n fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Jan 5, 2011 |

Dont really see what "episodes" did/is doing to provoke such hostile reactions its been getting, its not terrible and its above mediocre. It seems as though its portraying the fine line between "ahahahaha are they serious?....oh my god they are serious:(!?" in the world of pitching tv series quite well.

Falling down is on ITV4 so this 10 o'clock live pile of shite can go gently caress itself. Put Mr peep show and Charlie Screenwipe back on their respective shows and never broadcast this tripe again. Thanks in advance.

A true metalhead wouldnt be able to talk to a girl in real life either. So unrealistic.

Brooker's TV ruined your life was more or less a re-run of a screenwipe segment , yeah, updated to 2011 this time presented by charlie brooker's hair. Made me chuckle a fair few times, he is more suited to this that his channel 4 stuff. Looking forward to civillisation in HD, hopefully on iplayer in HD.

Testro posted:I don't understand why they don't do a student licence for students in halls, which they could sell at Fresher's Fayre. It seems much fairer to run a 9 month discounted licence that's solely for halls of residences, and you'd think that would lead into an increased uptake. From the people I talked to, there were only a couple of us who'd bothered to get licences - so surely that's a huge area they're missing out on? Because of the hassle of creating a whole new license just for students? the majority of students in halls dont even own tv's anyway, the ones that i knew that did (very few) didnt even bother paying. It was only in second year in our house did we bother.
