Happy Face 29 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Parks and recreation is lighter in tone but also excellent. Shame it's been canceled from next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44814 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 This season has been awful imo. I've got a good few episodes to watch and really don't feel like it. Used to be great though. Too many of the cast getting famous and doing other stuff. Aziz Ansari is barely in it anymore at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Aye Aziz and John Ralphio need to be in it more. Hasn't been as good since Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones left tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 33146 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 The Quite Remarkable David Coleman is back on iPlayer. I'm sure it's been recommended in here before, but it's well worth a watch, particularly for people of a certain age who were brought up on his commentary at Olympics etc. This article is worth a read too, and absolutely spot on about the standard of commentary and sports broadcasting these days. All that technology in the hands of idiot ex-sportsmen with nothing of note to say (although I genuinely think Steve Cram is turning into a quality commentator, some of his stuff at London 2012 was really good). The point about MOTD commentators is right too - all stats and no gravitas, although I always thought that about Motson too who most seem to regard as a legend. Coleman and Barry Davies stand apart because of their turn of phrase, Motson just bored me in comparison. http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/may/23/david-coleman-commentaries-still-make-hair-stand-up Agree with most of that, watched half yesterday and the rest this morning.

Howmanheyman 33146 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Non Stop Shite. Christmas Tree is an alcoholic man from Boldon, South Tyneside who has lost his job and has a ball on the internet and could be posting non stop shite right now for all they know. (they make reference to all of that...stereotypes hooooooo) Think I might've read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Lego Movie was excellent , Batman and Liam Neeson Watched this last night in all funnily enough. Thought it was class, the hand holding rather than kissing or owt , a really cleverly done film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 33146 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hard lines on Barton getting on a serious political show at last then finding out one of the panel is Piers Morgan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30569 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Barton's going to look well out of his depth, unfortunately the questions posed are going to require answers more than 140 characters long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13862 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 It's great when Barton slips up and exposes himself as a secret Tory so really looking forward to it tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADP 0 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Painful already. Five minutes in I thought 'aye, he's doing alright here'. Then I realised he hadn't spoken, and his first point was likening a vote for UKIP to choosing the ugliest of 4 ugly lasses Idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Newcastle was one of the first establishments to honour him. She also mentioned seeing Al Jolson live in Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
