Television, drug of the nation

This weeks The walking dead... I can almost see the script writers meeting.

"Guys, we're getting shit canned on the internet, we need to come up with something new, fast!"

An awkward silence hangs in the air while the writers all sit cross eyed with their tongues poking out the side of their mouth as they wrack their brains.

"I've got it" says one of them wiping a bit of dribble from his chin. "Let's put another annoying whiny kid front and centre, the audience will love it, I mean who doesn't like kids, in fact let's use two of them!"

FFS

I don't get why you were watching that and not First Dates? Odd.

Well, they can't pull that one again.

My gf had that on before she went to bed, that fake interaction bullshit is a twats hair away from the hammed up 'acting' of those cunts on the only way is essex.

All 'Reality' tv can >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It's the televisual equivalent of reading the drivel they put in the fucking metro

Well, they can't pull that one again.

Hah no they can't, hadn't got to that bit yet.

Whoops, I watched it about an hour before you, best one for a while.

That one on BBC2
Wiv 'er off Tomb Raider
Jolly good it was
and I don't care if all the fucking papers agree with me.

There should be a second TV thread. Television Thread - Warning This Thread Is Full of Spoilers.

Two rules -

All posts must start with the title of the show in full.
No spoilers until 9am UK time the second day after the show first appears on TV (ie people have a full 24 hours and a bit more to watch anything)

or if you know people are discussing said show don't read till you've seen it....

Started watching S2 of Hannibal, still good and visually amazing

iPlayer, Y U no worky?

^^And occasionally minging.

Nobody watching the Sports Relief at lea Valley velo?

Alas no. But I'm pissed off that it's on instead of Eastenders.

Freddie Flintoff was pretty fast round the velodrome though. Glad he beat Olly Murs.

This is very funny. Watch out for Alan Yentob and Salman Rushdie arm wrestling in a conference room, and titanium brompton one-upmanship.

^ This. For all its failings, it's good to see the BBC can still take the piss out of itself. Bet this was fun to make.

^ just watched w1a, ruddy fantastic

Dare i say it, this weeks the walking dead was pretty good!

How dare you!

it was the second to last episode they had to start including some plot else they might not have enough cliffhanger to hook themselves another season.

if every episode had that much going on it would be an enjoyable show.

after last week's snooze fest it was great

The last episode of True Detetive...
much wow. very suspense.

Terminus looks a bit daunting,bit too good to be true - like Lance Armstrong really.

Yeah, put all the good bits at the end of the season so you forget the beginning and look forward to the next lot. Can't wait for next week.
