Big post of random things
- 'Show Me The Funny' - not what I expected. For a start, I thought we'd get to see more of each competitors' set. The tasks they were given seemed sort of pointless. Still quite good, though. I like Kate Copstick - she seems pretty strict but fair. That guy that got kicked out was dire. Looking forward to next week.
- Did anyone watch that 'Mock The Week' special episode? 'Twas brilliant. I really like Mickey Flanagan.
- Speaking of Mickey Flanagan, I loved the latest uncut version of '8 Out Of 10 Cats'. Sean Lock! Jon Richardson! Jedward! Mickey Flanagan! Charlie Brooker! All in one room! Charlie didn't say much, but it was worth him being there just to look at his hair. Jedward were hilariously stupid, although I suspect there's a lot more going on in their identical heads than they let on. And the teasing that went on felt quite good-natured and they weren't overpoweringly annoying, not like that episode of Buzzcocks, which made me cringe a bit.
- And speaking of Jon Richardson, I see he's taking over the hosting of the next series of 'Stand Up For The Week', probably because Kevin Bridges is getting his own BBC show. Maybe I'll be able to sit through a whole episode this time.
- Watched the repeat of BBC's 'Sherlock' last night. I missed it last year when it was first on and I never got round to catching up online, so it was my first time watching it. I enjoyed it, but did they really have to put in so many questions about Sherlock's sexuality? It just felt kind of strange that people kept asking if Watson was his boyfriend.
- Also: 'The Hour'. Did anyone watch it? I missed it, but definitely going to catch up on this one, if only because the ad for it was so nice.
