Paid Members Gus Mears Posted July 6, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 6, 2016 I don't think it's proof that nostalgia is a terrible thing, more that Goodnight Sweetheart is terrible. Irrespective of how much Lyndhurst's face resembles a saggy pair of milk vestibules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathrey Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 It is! I haven't watched this week's episode yet but I'm really enjoying it so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted July 6, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 6, 2016 Le Blanc isn't wrong, is he? So many were praising him for his efforts and equally saying how shit, annoying and outdated Evans' TGIF style was. Â I like Le Blanc on Top Gear, oozes natural charisma. Evans can rightly fuck off, so this is a good thing. i only saw the last episode but thought Le Blanc was worse than Evans, his delivery was shite. Â on a completely unrelated note, what the fuck is this!?... Â Â (it's been cancelled already) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted July 10, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 Anyone see any of that OJ Simpson Made In America documentary series? Its pretty damn good. Quite extreme, though. Cant believe they were allowed to show pictures of Nicole with her throat opened up after the murder. Could have done without that. But its got interviews with most of the key characters and all the good footage is in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted July 10, 2016 Moderators Share Posted July 10, 2016 Not yet, its on BT Sports 1 every night this week so I figured I'd catch it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted July 10, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 Its quite great. Especially the last episode which covers OJ, the past it old cunt years. Guarantee when he's out in a year, he'll be on Big Brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted July 10, 2016 Moderators Share Posted July 10, 2016 Some absolutely mental stuff in that last episode, although I was disappointed they didn't show the clip from Saturday Night Armistice when Armando Iannucci got his autograph, then unfurled it to reveal the full text of "I did it, signed, OJ SImpson" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Bifkin Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I knocked out the whole series of Stranger Things on Netflix this weekend. It's like a mash up of almost everything good Stephen King and Spielberg did in the 80's, with lashings of John Carpenter and a smidge of Wes Craven. Best TV show of the year so far and fun for all the family. Winona Ryder is brilliant and still attractive playing a batshit mental old dear. The little girl will break your heart. Just a shame it's only 8 episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted July 18, 2016 Awards Moderator Share Posted July 18, 2016 Thanks for the recommendation, I saw a trailer for it earlier and thought 'that looks just like a Spielberg film!' Good to know that persists in the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PowerButchi Posted July 18, 2016 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2016 I forgot just how long GBH is. It's fucking marvellous though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted July 19, 2016 Moderators Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) Just finished episode 5, two to go. Fucking hell this is powerful stuff. Alan Bleasdale is god, isn't he? Robert Lindsay is absolutely treemendous in it, and fuck me Palin can act. Â Surely in the argument for finest British drama of all time.

benbobjr Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 GBH is a great show, I rented it from Blckbuster in teh late 90s to show my girlfriend at University at the time. She wasn't impressed and we didn't last much longer. I really should watch it again, probably haven't done so in a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted July 19, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2016 Stranger Things... it's magic. I can't believe how much I'm enjoying this show, there are some clearly ropey bits but on the whole it captures the mood of a Steven Spielberg adaptation of a recently-discovered Stephen King novel from about 1983. Just lovely, mythical stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
