At the end of the day, I find Kyle a scary man. Although I think it provides a very visceral style of entertainment, at the end of the day. And this is my favourite clip, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48HUdzoKiPA

goatface posted:I don't know why they send her on to HIGNFY. I assume she's sent anyway, are political guests invited or volunteered? I was thinking about this, I like to believe that whoever is responsible for getting guests feels pretty bad about BoJo becoming mayor, as a lot of people feel he looked pretty jolly on hignfy. Now they'll only have politicians who now act like irredeemable twats. That's what I like to think anyway.

Jonnty posted:We're talking about radio - compared to Just a Minute, I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue and the News Quiz, it's positively embryonic. Slightly similar to the News Quiz, except it's not panel based, is the Now Show, which is Punt & Dennis looking at current events, it's not on at the moment I think it's a seasonal show. I've never really understood UK TV/Radio schedules. I've just watched Louis Theroux and some of the guys creeped me out, when the man was holding his monkey, and he got it to kiss him, and it slipped its tongue into his mouth  There was also a man who punched his cats in the face, and all his animals seemed scared of him, that was terrible  He also said his baboon took baths with him, I'm kinda hoping that the local authorities see this and close him down.One thing I've argued with people about is Louis himself, I notice that a lot of people have a cynical opinion of Louis' naive/coy approach to asking questions, stating it's an at of sorts. My feelings are that he's genuinely curious and not wanting to outright condemn or be confrontational with the people he's interviewing and as such tries to frame probing questions in a polite manner, so they won't just close down on him.

I worked out how to screenshot what I think is the creepiest bit   but I've got no idea if it's possible to record a short clip to youtube of Tim punching his cat in the face, or all the occasions where his animals are afraid of him. (I hope one of his animals eats him)

At the beginning of the top gear special they seemed to be phoning it in, with the Dabbawala stuff especially, but when I saw the banner on the train I knew it could be good and then: "poo poo FOR YOUR COMPANY  " nearly gave me a hernia. However when I think of some of the other specials they've done, this feels like the weakest.

Graviton v2 posted:I dunno man I thought it was as good as ever (if a bit long). Chiming in to say I quite liked 2011 wipe though I didn't find it quite as acerbic as previous wipes, but maybe that's some confirmation bias from people pointing out that he's married with child on the way etc. Black Mirror, I felt that the first was OK, but the second one I didn't like, it felt like a joke played against the viewers, answering the unasked question of "What if The Matrix were British, and by extension a little bit poo poo". Anyone know how the third one stacks up? However, I don't get any adverts on 4oD at all, I'm using firefox and adblock though, everyone I've heard complain about those adverts has been using chrome, can I ask if that's the case for you too?

I may have missed something on black mirror, I freely admit I didn't give it 100% of my attention, but it seemed to be a society existing in some kind of computer controlled reality, and everyone was cycling to power the thing, he tries to escape but ends up in a higher resolution computer room.

Akuma posted:They're not in a computer simulation, it's just a lovely world where they perform meaningless tasks to earn bullshit currency to fritter away on poo poo they don't need. I didn't mean they were avatars, but they are confined to rooms, they can't go outside and play with cats, dogs, rivers or trees. That is what I meant by the poo poo matrix, essentially an upgraded set of VR goggles. If you're looking for an overall moral, I think it's actually about the exploitative nature of talent shows.

Try this for unedited https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Izet8zN1vmE I'm so glad you posted this, I was wondering why the first video seemed different and slightly less funny than I remembered. As I recall one of the funny things was that in the whole show it was apparent the woman didn't really get what everyone was laughing at. Something I've wondered is whether the person(s) who animated Mr Chips realised how this looked, and also was it deliberate?

netally posted:Really? I thought they'd banned those stupid quiz shows? I haven't seen one in years. Honestly, I think I confused myself while tired last night, it was home shopping poo poo for 2 hours (12.15am-2.15am), SuperCasino was on 5. Oh wait, tonight on ITV (12.15-2.30) is Jackpot 247 which I'm sure is quality programming, though as someone said they must be doing because they have gently caress all money. Is there anything decent on ITV these days? The last things I recall watching were TV Burp, You've Been Framed and Take Me Out but even those require a disclaimer of some sort. You've been framed seems to be 50% stuff I've seen before, and Take Me Out is fun but can leave you with an aftertaste of shame.

Catzilla posted:Real answer is that they probably film about 2 or 3 hours of material, so the editor decides what gets shown I believe this is the official answer for why HIGNFY scores often don't add up to what you see on the programme. It's probably also exactly what happens with basically any other scored topical quiz on TV, though I don't think there are many shows which fit that description. Szmitten posted:I've pretty much made it a rule to always watch QI XL and skip regular QI, less trimming and you don't have to watch it twice. I'm in the same boat with Have I Got More News For You as well, it's annoying that there's a longer wait to see it,

I don't know what's wrong with you guys, Mr Blobby is The Best I remember I made a clay Mr Blobby in art class, but had to give him a tail for balance reasons, my grandparents still have it somewhere. I think I may have related this story before but, Noel Edmonds kept the Mr Blobby outfit for a long time and when he was hosting dinner parties, barbecues etc would excuse himself, put on the outfit and charge through the party entertaining and terrifying guests in equal measure.

I think Brown Moses linked to a youtube clip of the Schofield/Cameron thing, I don't know if any of you get popbitch but in their latest mail they pointed out it's pretty hypocritical of Schofield to just say he found pedophile accusations from Google. He was after all the victim of internet rumours in the early 2000s suggesting he was in a gay relationship with Jason Donovan, rumours he rebutted with a "you can't trust any of the nonsense on the internet" line but also "There's too many broken hearts in the world".

So she had to go for the next guy regardless of whether she really wanted to. Well, not too bad, you get a free holiday right? Whoever said they think Lois is a plant I reckon you're right, they give her a lot of screen time, and then I realised I'd heard her voice before... she's Boycie. Take me out is the only thing I watch on ITV, I don't know why I just can't look away.

Honestly I was joking, the time you spend... wherever must be 2 days and most of the time will probably have a camera and soundman faffing and saying "OK guys we're gonna reshoot that" in addition to the fact some of the contestants must have to travel for each recording. Can Xachariah ask the friend who was on it breakdown fo everything, a bit like that one guy did for the Crystal Maze or something?
