Trailers, Quotes and Stuff
‘The Man In The High Castle’ trailer
America was defeated and divided between the Japanese and Germans. This is dark, dingy and looks good, hellish, oppressive and soul-draining. Rotten inside people are living in a mad nightmare.
Best Lines:
“The Axis powers of America.”
“One nation under rule.”
“Liberty and justice for none.”

Teen trash.

On ‘Neighbours’: Naomi has no vixen fierceness. Paige has sharp elbows. Susan inexplicably supports the inept Brad and slut Lauren. Paige offends Brennan, again. Ramsey Street was once a quiet and quaint place and is now sketchy. There is more family intrigue as Josh shags Naomi. Testosterone cypionate dealer Josh thinks it is no big deal he banged Naomi. Paul finds out and FLIPS. The broke down Val Kilmer on psilocybin looking Josh better sleep with one eye open. Cue psychotic drama.

On ‘Hollyoaks’: This show has become a repetitive farce. Harry tells Tony he was doing drugs not Ste. Holly does something stupid. The writers are not realists. Will Tegan and Scott just die? Tegan provokes and colludes. Trevor blames Leela. Where is Curtis? Why does Ziggy have no shirt on? Ziggy wants out of the cage of marriage and then changes his mind. Ste is snide. He isn’t part of the Lomax clan. Where are Lola and Grace? Scott is a painfully uncomfortable character. Tony makes Harry go to an NA meeting. Doesn’t Jason have a job? Trevor does a conscious process of intimidation.
Where is Frankie? Where is Esther? There are ethical lapses all round. There are creatively-crushing unjustified storylines, arbitrary pointless characters and the less scrupulous get away with everything. There is no real prospect of clean up and when will Freddie pay for murdering Fraser Black? Ste boasts that he hasn’t listened to a CD since 2005. Everyone acts like Ste isn’t married to John-Paul. Ziggy has a harsh response to vile bully Tegan. Leela/Ziggy have a numbing effect. Rose has forgotten Tegan. Leela and Ziggy go on holiday. Tegan still wants Ziggy. John-Paul rants at Ste who snots. Holly does drugs. Is John-Paul comforting Ste over Sinead leaving? Where is Matthew? Dirk rants. Cameron is still is the opening credits. Robbie menaces Kyle. Tegan roars. Ste stalks Harry at his school like some creepy sex offender. Cindy finds the GHK’s lair.
