Jusoda Kid 1 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I know it's an old cliche but it really has been a disgrace. It's the same scedule as last year if my memory serves me correctly, crocodile dundee 1 & 2 FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I has been pretty shite. The only thing I've really watched was the Two Ronnies christmas thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 47001 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 It just seems to me as if whoever's in charge of scheduling has just completely given up any attempt to try and come up with something decent. Anywhere where there's a gap (and given the total lack of original quality programmes that have been on that's a lot) they've just plugged it with a crap film. Not even premieres or anything either.

DanTheMan 0 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Its because most of the TV staff have gone on holiday, so they can't do any live programing, so need to use films and shitty documentaries to fill in the holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I'm so bored I'm eating just for the sake of it. I'm not hungry, I've had too much, I know I'm out of shape but I keep shovelling it in. Ah, Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 There hasn't been anything that really stood out to watch imo. I managed to find The Great Escape on one channel the other day and I watched the Titanic thing last night, which was quite good, but that's about all I have watched tbh. Oh, watched the Comic Strip about the wife-swappers which wasn't particlularly funny. The funniest thing was when mrs hips proclaimed that we had pampas grass in the back (the point being that in the prog the grass growing in the garden was the sign of the occupants life-style ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means they have to do more films and pre-recorded programming. you spaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can pre-record it if they like as long as it's decent. What you said sounded like they got to the week before Xmas, checked the fucking TV presenter rota, and realised all their staff were off so just put films on to plug the holes.

Sicklee Sausage Roll 0 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) The 'Comic Strip presents' thing was total shoite. Didn't raise a single smile, let alone a laugh. Rik Mayall playing the same character he's only ever played. Edited December 30, 2005 by Sicklee Sausage Roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizza 105 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) Scrooged just started on Sky 2, great film. Frank Cross: I want to see her nipples. Censor Lady: But this is a CHRISTMAS show. Frank Cross: Well, I'm sure Charles Dickens would have wanted to see her nipples. The Ghost of Christmas Present: Oh, what is this Frank? Oh, oh, look Frank. It's a toaster. *hits him in the head with the toaster* Edited December 30, 2005 by Bizza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 536 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Got some decent dvds for Xmas so have been hammering through them instead of watching most of the drivel: Dodgeball Clerks X Ferris Buellers Day Off Scrubs Season 1 Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 1 Max and Paddy: Road to Nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_NUFC 0 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I've not watched much. I watched Doctor Who on Xmas day, I watched the Quiz of 2005 on Channel 4 the other night (which was good despite Jimmy Carr - 8 out of 10 Cats was the same), a bit of football oh aye and the Soccer Saturday Universally Challenged quiz on Xmas Eve, which was canny. That's about it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
