Gemmill 48462 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 He had a TV show called The Jeselnik Offensive (which was the one he did Shark Party on ) and it suddenly got cancelled. It was class and I think it must have been that Boston tweet that got it shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 44246 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Aye, I don't really get the thinking there. Employ a "shock" comedian, sack him when he shocks people. 'Murica! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4489 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Well I finally finished Dextter today. I agree the last four seasons didn't match the first four but I think they were still worth watching - I liked Lumen and Ray Stevenson's characters especially but I have to say the sixth one with Colin Hanks was poor. As I said previously I think they pushed how long he could continue to get away with things too much - questions which should have been asked just weren't far too conveniently. I also don't get what eveyone's problem with the ending was - there were 4 possible endings for me - he gets caught, he gets killed, he lives happily ever after or he's forced to disappear.I don't think there was anything wrong with the choice - they sold the idea of him wanting to become human which he just about did and it turned out he couldnt cope with it - fair enough - though abandoning his son was a push. Next for me is watching the conclusion to Continuum then I'll resume Breaking Bad which I watched the first four episodes of when I was on holiday.

ChezGiven 0 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Watched a bit of Jeselnik last night, whilst the material is quite funny I found his delivery a bit boring. Even the most unempathetic comedy characters have either a charm or an energy that draws you in. Maybe it was because it was late or maybe expectations were raised too high. I will watch again but I doubt I will get past the act looking a little contrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1322 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 After the talk of stand up comedy I watched one of Jim Jeffries shows last night when I was bored to death of the wall pushers game. Never seen any of his stuff before but I thought it was excellent. Finished off with a story about taking his disabled mate to a brothel which was brilliant. No doubt I'll watch some more soon.

The Fish 11267 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 fucking hell that was on E4 or something the other night when i couldn't sleep, stuck it for about 2minutes until i'm assuming "Mindy" spoke... how the fuck can you listen to that for any length of time. I thought it was some shtick for that particular episode, like maybe her flaps were caught in her knickers or something... but no, 2nd episode, there she is, chittering away like a Dolphin on Ritalin. My lass likes it, but she also like Made in Chelsea and me... so we can assume her taste is shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 48462 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I was very specific about who would like this special. I understand that some of you wanted to see if you were on my wavelength and that it's come as a disappointment to you that you aren't. Don't feel bad. That's just life, some of us get it, some don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
