kinda cutesy but with a horrifying background of the main character. I don't think this one is going to be able to keep up with the rest of new/old cop shows...Baliame wrote:The Mentalist

I'm not going to go harsh on it until the season's over though, I've seen a few shows which started out like "just another" and became "a really good alternative".

Bill Bailey - Tinselworm
Bill Bailey's newest Tour/DVD, similar to previous ones in that it's insanity and music.
Pleased me.

Saw this on Amazon while I was looking for Ross Noble's latest DVD which should be out before xmas.Posted: November 11th, 2008, 10:16
I ordered the DVD the other day, but not got it yet... i think the postman has trouble getting into the building here.
I downloaded it last night anyway, and watched 80% of it before falling asleep. Seems similar format, great graphics etc but not as good as part troll. The jokes dont seem to flow into one another at all. They are mostly still funny in themselves though.

Tripping the Rift
Animated semi-humourous sci-fi-esque thing about a purple thing with a big arse called Chode, and his spaceship crew including a sex android, some golden robot (3cpo?), some green lizardish shit, and an ugly cow with three boobs. I kinda like it, it's worth a shot, but I can't guarantee you'll like it.

I thought Tinselworm was a bit weak. He seemed to concentrate too much on flashy stuff and not enough on comedy and new music.

Farscape
Not sure if it has been mentioned before, since search is currently disabled and I'm basically a lazy fuck. Awesome sci-fi eaten by the owner channel, but pretty much every channel is the same, right, they either fail to come up with a good show or cancel any good shows to make space for bad ones and turn into type 1 channels. Anyway, Farscape is, Doctor Who and Eureka aside, a truely awesome sci-fi, while a bit to serious it never fails to be comical.

I've been watching new stuff;
<B><a href="http://www.tvrage.com/Boston_Legal">Boston legal</a></B>:
Legal drama with comedy.
Contains the shat, that's all you really need to know.
Not super funny, but consistently pleasingly amusing, a bit like Arrested Development in that respect.
<B><a href="http://www.tvrage.com/shows/id-20649">Chris Ryan's Elite Police</a></B>:
Chris Ryan playing with various 1337 police units, Handy education.
<B><a href="http://www.tvrage.com/The_Unit">The Unit</a></B>:
Somehow, I forgot to review this, I think (fuck you disabled search)
Super secret merkin special horses team lead by president palmer, mostly action, but contains their families too, fortunately, there's only a few episodes where the families bit is overpowering and pisses me off. Generally good
By far one of my favourite TV serieses of the last few years.

The bits with the soldiers' wives is by far the worst parts of The Unit.

I don't really enjoy those bits, but I do think it works nicely, adds some padding and potential for more involved stories.If it was just the actiony/military side of it, the show wouldn't have kept going so long, they're a necessary evil IMO, but that doesn't stop me skipping the really painfully bad bits

You're probably right, I just can't be bothered to keep up with the show.
Wallander
Posted: December 14th, 2008, 23:54
Wallander
The fantastic luvvie Kenneth Branagh plays the eponymous Swedish detective. A relatively run-of-mill TV detective show but Branagh puts in a cracking performance. It has a wonderfully low-key feeling and the plots are almost secondary to the personal aspect as Wallander almost seems too bumble through the investigations. Available on the aye-playa (be aware, they are also showing the Swedish versions, which ain't too bad either).
If nothing else, it has prompted me to add the original novels to my "should read" list.
Kingdom
Righto, first off, this is basically Heartbeat with Stephen Fry, but it is Heartbeat with Stephen Fry. Lord Fry plays a small-town Norfolk solicitor. He's hardly acting; the character is pretty much Stephen Fry as he appears in most other stuff but it is charming, light-hearted and Fry is perfect. Worth a look if you have a spare hour or two.

Nitro Circus.
Jackass meets freestyle MX
If you like jackass type things, or any sports where hurting yourself is part of the fun. watch this.
Tis also where that bigwheel backflip on the disco board a while ago came from.

Has Ashes to Ashes started over there and if it has is it any good? I enjoyed Life on Mars a lot.

Second series of Ashes to Ashes, no, not yet, soooonish apparently.
