I watched the first three episodes of Game of Thrones. I couldn't get into it but I also hate stuff like the Lord of the Rings....

 

Does it get better later on? Also, the music kinda got to me...

 

Me too.....just don't like this type of pish

Breaking Bad - just keeps getting better and better.

Ya...no need to buy a 747 to get the free bag of peanuts..

just watched the premiere of fargo the tv series. pretty good so far. billy bob thornton does a good job.

I'm not partial to all that fantasy faffing about either.

I <3 Greg Davies.

I even made we are klang must see TV despite the fact that in my heart i knew it was a few funny ideas stretched wafer thin over a series.

His Standup though kills! go on youtube and watch it.

 

But thats not why im here. Why im here is because i just watched the first episode of man down (his new channel 4 sitcom) and loved it.

 

It even features the now infamous "SPACE MISSION!!!" (which youll know from his standup).

He was always funniest when he was talking about his time as a teacher, and hooray! the series is built around it. Well loosely.

 

Worth a watch. Had one of the only times where a sitcom has had me laugh out loud. Im more of a smirker or inward laugher by nature.

 

What does it remind me of? Well, er, pretty much most classic UK channel 4 sitcoms to be honest. Its not groundbreaking the format here. Its straight up man in job he hates, gets drunk with his mates, his mates are a bunch of characters, has scrapes. The end! Basically classic 2.4 children style sitcom for the e4 generation.

 

ETA: Speaking of, tried watching episodes (another series). Hate and loath it. Which is sad because, you know.... green wing is genius. :(

Because it looks like a sideways heart :) Just like that's a sideways smile.

 

Anyways... gogglebox.

 

Amazingly disarming TV. You watch the first part and you might think "bunch of people playing up to the camera". Watch a few more episodes and you suddenly see that they have these relationships that are straight out of the fast show. I mean the soft kind heart of the fast show we all remember. Just watching that old posh guy making his rubbish innuendo and his wife laughing like a horse at it, and you get this whole warm cuddly feeling. Attraction and love is the weirdest thing.
