Yeah, true. I wonder if he realizes how cornball he is. During last night's rendition (awful) of Brown Sugar, he gets up and puts his ugly mug in the camera lens and does his Jagger imitation. Gag me with a spoon!

I prefer jam(that is probably my favourite thing on tv,like,ever)myself but couldnt get a decently sized picture.

edit-that was referred to wax

fishmonkey 07.26.2006 12:24 PM

I was more of a neighbours man myself. Purely for Sky though (damn she's fine). I managed to ween myself off it eventually. Which is teh path for you, fishmonkey, should take.

I've tried to watch Bad Girls, East Enders & Footballer's Wive$, but can't get into any of them.

My biggest trash tv gulity pleasure is watching the train wreck of Regis & Kelly whenever time permits in the mornings. I usually only catch a few minutes of it.

The Real World and all the gay themed crap on Bravo.

thewall91 07.26.2006 08:39 PM

i've been watching supernova in hopes that nikki sixx does a guest spot at some point (and to watch the retarded things that come out of tommy lee's mouth - please believe me that there was a point in his life where he was cool.)

but for the past 20 years now, i've been watching this:

I can't stand the Real World, but sometimes I'll be flipping channels and see some kind of show about rich kids on MTV and stop for a second to snicker.

LifeDistortion 07.26.2006 09:01 PM

I saw a little bit of "Supernova" must be fun for a woman trying out for the band, Tommy Lee basically chooses them based on how much he wants to sleep with them.

Court TV, cause on my days off there's nothing else on. Except Maury ^. And I used to occassionally realize I was watching Elimidate. Completely on accident, mind you. On accident...

wax 07.27.2006 12:08 AM

even though tv in the uk is mostly disgusting shite, comparing it to every other country ive watched tv in......we are blessed.
we have the best comedy. terrestrial tv doesnt torture us with the same amount of ad breaks when a decent show is on...as say, america.
god bless channel 4.
being in nyc and watching goodfellas wthout them saying fuck even one time kinda ruined it for me. and it was about 3am. there were naked trannys dancing around on the other channel, but no, a gangstar couldnt say "fuck"
how fucking stupid is that?

Postman Pat, Postman Pat
Postman Pat and his black and white Cat

I almost completely forgot about that show.

Iain 07.27.2006 11:20 AM

I knew someone once who looked pretty much exactly like Postman Pat.

Anyway, we are indeed blessed with a load of good comedy in the UK but apart from that TV is pretty bad. My guilty pleasures are Hollyoaks and the occaisional bit of The OC. I watched the first series of Lost but haven't bothered with the second. I just got someone to tell me what happened.

Now dig it: I am not a God freak. Not even remotely. Not a believer. But I really, really enjoyed this show. It was the improbable demands "God" placed on Joan that made it compelling, coupled with themes of typical teenage angst. It was low-key about the religious aspect--more subtly humanistically spiritual than religious, really--right vs. wrong, ethical debates, etc. I think the actress who plays Joan, Amber Tamblyn, is superb. Unfortunately, like anything of quality on TV these days, it was pulled after the first couple of seasons.

Here's a description from the official site:

JOAN OF ARCADIA is a drama that follows a typical family facing atypical situations, not the least of which is their teenage daughter's conversations with God. A tough but soft-hearted police detective in Arcadia, Will Girardi (Joe Mantegna) dreams of providing a safe haven for his family and community. An outbreak of serious crime in his idyllic new town has challenged Girardi's desire for order, as have the ups and downs he faces with his family. Daughter Joan (Amber Tamblyn), an average teenager, has been acting a little strange. Most don't know that it has to do with the unusual way various people keep popping up, introducing themselves as God and then giving her specific directions to do things, such as get a job, join the debate team or volunteer with children. The appearances are hard for her to believe, even more so as she never knows who's going to turn up next. One minute it's a cute boy her own age, the next it's the lunch lady or a little girl. She'd been keeping it a secret from everyone, though she has finally revealed it to her artistic and generally sensitive boyfriend, Adam (Christopher Marquette), who believes she's been experiencing hallucinations.

HairwayToSteven 07.27.2006 02:08 PM

I probably watch way too much television than I should, here is some of the shows I regularly watch: Mythbusters, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (very funny), Last Comic Standing, Futurama, Supergroup, Reno 911, Chappelle Show, etc.

Tokolosh 07.27.2006 02:19 PM

Is TopGear considered trash?

Old episodes of On the Buses. Modern trash just doesn't compare.
