I hate to push a good thread about bumholes down the page, but I think the conversation may be dead.
What television show do you think they should bring back?

Or what, if anything, are you drinking right now?
(I helped save b3ta! JessAction Give me all your expensive brandy and hubcaps., Sat 11 Jul 2009, 0:59, archived)
I'm drinking Brothers strawberry perry*
And I think they should bring back London's Burning.

*FINALLY, it says so on the bottle!

Strawberry Perry? Fuck's sake

You may as well call it "lemon flavoured drink"
because if it isn't pear flavoured, it can't be perry

Oh shut up
That's what it says on the label, so that's what it's called.

Fair point. It's not you that are wrong, it's them.
I'm not going to say a word against you, as I'm for ever going to have to namecheck you in my answer to the "where were you when you heard that Michael Jackson died?" question.
Damn you and your timely links to TMZ!

PS - Have you ever been in Bitter Suite opposite 53°? Me and the missus were in there on Tuesday and didn't realise that there was such a decent boozer tucked away up there

I'm drinking Marston's Pedigree brown booze
8x500ml bottles for £8 in Tesco so I bought 32
Also, they had an offer on meaning that if you spent over £30, you got a deck of Carlsberg Export 20x 275ml bottles for £5

EDIT - and I want them to bring back Psychoville for a second series. Even though they are only halfway through showing series 1
(I helped save b3ta! mns 2️⃣2️⃣9️⃣0️⃣7️⃣, Sat 11 Jul 2009, 1:03, archived)
Makes me wonder
Psychoville is definintely the darker aspects of LOG carried on. Makes you wonder if LOG was originally as macabre as Psychoville but they would't commission it without more humour in it so it had to go for rewrite...

I thought LOG was a completely laugh-free zone.

LOG was toned down by Gatiss/Dyson's lighter aspects and references to social culture

Vodka & Irn Bru
DRINK OF CHAMPIONS

Also, I've just finished watching the third series of 'Home Movies' for the second time in three days. I love that show and would love to see it come back. It's by the creator of Dethklok though and I think he's rather found a lot more fame doing that show instead.

It is what the League of Gentleman should have naturally evolved into
rather than push out the somewhat weak third series. Gatiss and Dyson pushed for the intertwined thread storylines rather than concentrate on the sharp one-liners.
The less said about the film the better.
Shearsmith and Pemberton are a better creative writing team than Gatiss and Dyson and this is showing with the darker style of humour and references to classic horror and cult programmes.
(I helped save b3ta! mns 2️⃣2️⃣9️⃣0️⃣7️⃣, Sat 11 Jul 2009, 1:17, archived)
That could be it
I'm not a fan of classic horror, in fact I'm just not interested in horror at all. But the episodes I've watched don't seem to be going down the horror route that much, neither do they attempt to be amusing, I'm just rather underwhelmed by it. I liked the idea and I wanted to enjoy it, but I don't, sadly.
