that looks fucking terrible. pity it's got the cute girl from Whiplash in it, I like her.

That girlie has a Sunny Lane/ Jenna Fisher vibe. I like that. (Sunny Lane NSFW fyi)

She's tasty, but that looks wretched. Also she was definitely just going to let that plane crash if her friend hadn't been on it right?

Supergirl needs to be a prostitute in the 21st Century, wrecking guys with her Kryptonian vagina

Why is Jimmy Olson so old?

supergirl, morelike super lame. ha ha ha

Wayward Pines - Pretty sure it's...I don't know...Some things happened, but..../10

laughably bad?

Hannibal - Season 2.

Mads Mikkelsen is brilliant in it.

I really love the 'mushroom' episode from the first season though!

looks like more of a rip off of The Prisoner than Twin Peaks. wasn't great, but not awful.

pretty much.

twin peaks cast in the prisoner scenario but for twilight zone fans (and juliette lewis forehead fans)

Watched the pilot episode of Grayson Perry's Dream House on sunday then read through some of cwynbrancity's April posts.

that could never end well

Last Man on Earth - Season finale. Interesting turn of events. What the hell's up with Phil's astronaut bro in the space station? How is that gonna play?

is it Jason Sudeikis?

 

a bearded Sudeikis, yes.

 

I just finished season 1. great ending, was hoping the black guy would turn out to be gay.

Phone Shop! The soundtrack's pretty bitchin'

is anybody else feeling like Veep is almost better this season?

yep. it's still not great, especially for an Iannucci show (everything else he's done in genius), but it's definitely got more gags this season. the previous seasons had plenty of episodes where I laughed one or two times.

feels like a better fit this season,

script, jokes, characters and actors have bedded in fully, pacing doesnt feel forced and making JLD Prez has upped the sycophancy of the team around her to brilliant levels

due to physical rehab i was forced to watch several episodes of whatever that wank is with Drew Pritchard, the bloke who goes round stately piles & warehouses trying to underpay everyone for their junk antiques horded crap

there are several problems with this program:

1) the narrator chap, the northern sounding cunt who was Brent's mate Finchy in The Office (imdb confirms Ralph Ineson), needs to stop sounding like something out of a George Orwell sat-nav nightmare. Like Drew Pritchard isnt grating enough w/out interludes from this length. This more than anything else boils my piss.

2) the subtle reinforcement of class structures through a steady flow of gibbering toffs, spiv wheeler dealers and the poor beast of burden, T (is it? it could be summat different,,,,). Granted, you dont get the crass in your face money-money-money aspect of certain US equivalents, but the only folks out of this spectrum are the odd autistic toy car museum curator and Drew's scouse slightly alcoholic-looking wife.

3) the interior working of T's mind are never revealed. His frustrations and patience when driving, lifting, listening to inane dribble & DP haggling over £25 differences are all disturbingly absent. A Marxist critique would miss the journey of the soul of this man. And he always has a joke to crack at the right moments.....bless.

4) DP's wife's reactions to yet another removal van full of tat and crap unloading are some of the more unintentionally funny sequences of the whole thing. Micro-winces & sighs masked behind dry scouse wit. Hence, this is actually the show's single saving grace
