Paid Members JNLister Posted October 20, 2008 Paid Members Share Posted October 20, 2008 The Lister curse strikes again. Natural Born Sellers has been moved out of prime time. Officially it's because of poor ratings, though I suspect it may be specifically down to a lack of advertisers (last week's episode had one break with only one ad). I guess that makes sense as watching the show hardly leaves in the mood to listen to sales pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott being the cockiest man alive and crashing back to earth with a bang. As well as that dark haired bint (really can't remember her name) seemingly wanting to whore her way to the top.

Famous Mortimer Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I'll cope.I saw episodes 1 and 2 and thought it was decent, I'll be sure to watch the rest (which I've downloaded), and would have done even without boobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamite Duane Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) At last managed to find the thread, surely I should be able to find a topic I started easier than that! Â Anyway since I've bumped it what are you watching on telly? Â For me it's still Last Man Standing (Tuesdays) and Heroes (Wednesdays) plus been watching the Ascent of Money which is on Channel at 8pm on a Monday. There seems to be a lack of comedies at the moment so good thing I bought Mighty Boosh series 3 for the wife's b'day Edited December 9, 2008 by Dynamite Duane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cum Doctor Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Just started watching this series of Spooks on iPlayer. Never seen Spooks before, but I'm really enjoying this. Â Did anyone watch Wallander ? Wondering if it's any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted December 10, 2008 Paid Members Share Posted December 10, 2008 There's a great show on Childrens BBC (actually a lot of the shows they do are really well-made these days) called Election. It's the same format as the Apprentice, but for politics and with children as contestants. What makes it work so well is that it's done exactly as if they were adults, with absolutely no patronisation. Jonathan Dimbleby is judge and watching him tell kids they've fucked up - and kids answering back - is awesome. Â There's only two episodes left on TV, but the whole series is on iPlayer.

SImply great stuff from start to finish. Â Â Just thought id quickly reply to this as i actually used to work for Scott English for 118Trades. I can actually confirm that he is indeed that much of a cocky character but at the same time i felt he made Natural Born Sellers what it was. As soon as he left, my interest in the show quickly went sour. Who actually won in the end? Â Anyway the show I am watching is Kenny Vs Spenny on youtube. It's juvenile and has a very simple concept each episode such as "who can keep a dump in their pants the longest?" and will focus around the two different characters dealing with each situation. Â Like I said it's extremely juvenile and very much in the Jackass/Dirty Sanchez/ Viva La Bam mould. However the difference is that everything is done for a reason as the loser faces some bizare kind of humiliation at the end of each episode. The laughs mostly happen when the "straight man" Spenny, is throwing his toys out of the pram due to Kenny's underhanded tactics. Â Some of Kenny's swerves to win the competition are utterly brilliant too! Â Key Episodes for me are: Â Who is the better pro wrestler? Featuring Tyson Dux and Iron Sheik. Who can hold a dump in their pants the longest? Who can bone more women? Who can piss off the most people? Who can imitate the other guy better? Who can blow the biggest fart? Â If it sounds like your kind of thing, then give it a go and im sure you'll enjoy. On a related note, Im 100% sure their was a UK version of this on late night Sky 1 a few years back but i can find no evidence of it existing. Does anybody else happen to remember at all?

spotlightmagnet1 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 New Big Bang Theory. Nuff said. Â I have been watching an obsene amount of New Tricks recently and i love the programme. I can't explain why but i love the characters, the stories, and even the little twists and turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came in the bottom two every week but survived, either because people liked him and wanted to keep him, or in later weeks because they knew he was less of a threat to win. He then pulled off the win in the final (which was selling shares in a racehorse for charity) by practically begging and wound up selling sponsorship on a terminally ill child's wheelchair.
