why don't you pay yours?
I don't know what makes me angrier: the fact that I am paying for that rubbish to be made, etc., or that you are not.

It was, indeed, bad.
It makes me think about how out-there young people are, in terms of sexuality, and so on. I mean -- the things that they dare to say, in public, or, to each other. !

Out of the All-Star Comedy Show I enjoyed the Vic and Bob bits very much, but man cannot live on ten minutes alone.
I also BOUGHT Spaced, which is a load of old cock if ever I saw it.
I see Patsy Kensit is in Emmerdale Farm.
― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 16:42 (twenty years ago) link
Wow, this is a depressing turn of events. I usually think of Spaced (or perhaps Black Books) as my banker for those estranged from Brit comedy since Fletch left HM Slade Prison.

I Am Not an Animal
Creature discomforts: in hostile territory, Philip the Horse enters into a power struggle with Mark the Bird.

I'm not too keen on the bounty-hunter element that's been introduced. It could well limit the plot - I don't want every episode to be a rehash of last night's.
― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 08:01 (twenty years ago) link
The VCR was groaning unpleasantly last night - possibly under the weight of my expectations - so I expect a flickery, distorted mess on playback. Like jaaaaam then.

I thought it was very funny. Especially Phillip's 'trouble' at the end. And the monkey's photo obsession.

As for Coogan only having one voice well, y'know, that's funny cos the guy got his break in the first place as an impressionist. See 1988 Royal Variety Show (or somesuch), his double act with John Thomson, Spitting Image, Spartacus Mills, The Pool, etc.
I could do without the rodent and the monkey. But, y'know, every show needs a Twist.

I don't dislike Twist; I was going to say 'Mike from The Young Ones' but it wasn't as smart-arsed.
― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Friday, 21 May 2004 07:57 (twenty years ago) link
I popped over to Cook'd and Bomb'd to see if the comedy netgeeks were as chuffed as me with the new Baynham product and discovered that it was 'unfunny, badly-animated garbage' with the usual wistful moan about 'remember how good he was in 199x'. If the same script was on R4 they'd be in excelsis.

Surreal comedy doesn't seem to have much to do with surrealism, not that I'd know, so what I'm wondering is, what would be a better label for surreal comedy?

I am about to watch the American THE OFFICE - I'll report back in 40 minutes.
-- Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, May 11, 2004 8:34 PM (3 years ago) Bookmark Link Note #1 - it uses ELO's "Mr Blue Sky" as its theme tune.
-- Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, May 11, 2004 8:36 PM (3 years ago) Bookmark Link
Interesting that the Office (US) pilot episode had been around for almost a full year before it finally aired (March 24, 2005).
I never realized how much The Office theme song sounds like "Mr. Blue Sky" but, hell it sure does.
