Or, more stuff for the easily amused.

"Sinn Fein say that Great Britain was right."

Of course, it was only in regards to the new EU Treaty, but it was still amusing.

I've mentioned in a few conversations now that I found Heroes  misogynist to the point where I couldn't enjoy what had had potential to be a good TV show.  donnaustin  actually noticed it before me (possibly because he is far more widely read than me in comics in general and the superhero genre in particular), and mentioned the "Women in  Refrigerators" ( Read more... )

Um, yeah.  So just watched the bloodbath that is the Eurovision Song Contest semi-finals.  That was painful.  I think half the audience was booing by the time the last country to make it through was named.  They may be revamping the voting procedure for next year, considering that neither the favored acts (e.g. Denmark's "Drama Queen") nor the two ( Read more... )

This just in: the people who run Sky1 are complete morons.  I mean, I'm glad they're airing shows I actually want to watch, such as The Dresden Files, Bones, and Battlestar Galactica, but they just  introduced Battlestar Galactica with "Forget Sci-Fi, this is real drama".  Um, hello?  Some of their most popular shows are Genre fiction.   Sky ( Read more... )

It's a bit breezy outside. I stepped out for a litre of milk and had to walk around tree on the sidewalk  . . .  tree on the road too.  I'm currently watching the street lamps shake in the wind. Apparantly 40,000 homes across the country have no power. Amusingly enough, the midweek movie on Network 2 is TwisterMore amusing is TG4.  They're ( Read more... )

Right. So hopefully this bad habit of turning on the TV when I have my tea will get broken soon. Anyways, there's a new ad on E4 for some TV show called "Beauty and the Geek". I won't actually watch it, but from the ad, I guess it's some reality TV show sticking stereotypical nerdy boys with stereotypical ditzy bleach blonde girls. Because, ( Read more... )

I'm sitting on the sofa with my lunch, watching a 24 year old man with Tourettes trying to learn off some of Bottom's lines from A Midsummer Night's Dream. Meanwhile, a Canadian is trying to learn how to say "I hate my housmates" in Welsh. Ah. Surreality TV.
