family guy sucks big dog's bollocks.

south park is always worth watching, although the same episodes get repeated far too much.

 

[Onket]

Is that the cartoon with a character with one eye?

Possibly.

South Park is shit, by the way.

Newsnight
University Challenge
A shit load of stuff on the Discovery channels

 

[Upchuck]

sounds pretty good. what channel is that on?

It's on The Discovery Channel if you can get that. Last night they had a man bitten on the hand by a rattlesnake and you could see right through his hand because of the acidic effect of the venom. There was also a lad from Florida who had his left arm wrenched off by an alligator in Florida during a late night swim. they showed the alligator after it was caught and when they cut it open the guy's arm was there, the whole arm in full from just below the shoulder

I have a Virgin L TV package. Currently they are giving a 30 day free trial of XL telly (just adding that for info)

In fact, I'm putting forward Time Team as a recommendation for this thread.

Cartoons are for children.

mock the week is awful btw

If you expected satire on the weeks events then yes you would be dissapointed ..

But it is just a program that gives an excuse to a load of comics to make jokes about things ...

I like it a lot ..

 

[Onket]

Yep, it's certainly worth watching. Some very good bits in it.

[Part 2]

Don't watch much telly meself, Psychoville is the best thing I've seen recently and series 3 of The Street (not as good as the first 2 series but worth an hour).


Gave up on the Charlie Brooker quiz after week 1. Anyone still watching it? Has it got any better?
