I don't watch the telly.
It's always on in the background but I only pay attention to Question Time, the news, the occasional Poirot and the occasional Quantum Leap.
Sometimes my mum or my bf make me watch Judge Judy. Or my mum and nana make me watch Extreme Home Makeover with dead people and disabled kids and it makes me cry and then she thinks that because I'm crying it means I agree that it's not shit but it IS shit.

Telly has been shit since the early 90s, eh lar?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 30 Aug 2011, 21:54, Reply)

Telly has been shit since forever.
Doesn't stop us watching it, though.

Innit.
I occasionally see the popular programmes that are hep with the young, like Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men. I like the former, but not the latter.
I'd be happy with Moonlighting, John Sullivan's entire works and Joking Apart on a loop.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 30 Aug 2011, 21:57, Reply)

TAAHM is awful.
Big Bang is hilarious. I watch it on repeat.

I like two and a half men.
It's a one trick pony, but I like the pony in question, so I can watch it all day.

Great series.

You know what used to be REALLY good?
Drop the Dead Donkey. That was a fantastic show. Well, for the first few years, anyway. The last two series were a bit silly.

I like watching Deal or No Deal with my mum and brother.
They still think I believe it's a game of skill not luck. I reckon the time we've spent arguing over it accumulates to days.

mr b3th is convinced they can change the numbers inside the box before the contestants open them.

Who is in your team and what are their specialist subjects?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 30 Aug 2011, 22:06, Reply)

Hmmmm
I think it's Darth, me, AA, Amberl & berk. As far as I can remember. There was a sizth person too, because you're supposed to have a reserve.
I don't think we've talked about what our specialist subjects are.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 30 Aug 2011, 22:09, Reply)

Darth: Dancing and gayness and failing to get promoted to the premier league
You: Beakering, the elderly and piers
AA: Lunch, majoring in the munchy box.
Amberl: All manner of clever stuff.
Berk: All manner of clever stuff and science.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 30 Aug 2011, 22:12, Reply)

Off Topic, your subject is Gayness.
Who's going to take this round, and who would you like to play from the Eggheads?

Hmm.. I can see where this might fall down without proper planning.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 30 Aug 2011, 22:15, Reply)

There's going to be a massive queue for punching CJ repeatedly in the nuts.

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 30 Aug 2011, 22:21, Reply)

It might be safer to just punch Darth in the mouth.
It'll have much the same effect!

I hope Darth fucks CJ, AA and Amberl emo out over the free food and flake out and Berk tries to fuck any cameraman that has a decent backhand then you have to face the Eggheads alone...

No it's me that says it's a game of skill.
My argument is that the players have to use their skill to know which boxes to pick. My brother will reply "that's luck you twat" and I'll go "no, it's a skill". We go round for hours, him and my mum still think I'm serious.
