Black Mirror comes out Friday

by RealGunner Tue Oct 18, 2016 10:47 pm

Might do one episode per week.

by M99 Tue Oct 18, 2016 11:24 pm

Do one episode per day ffs

Yeah so I'm told James, I know enough about Seinfeld to get the references, but as a show it just didn't hold my attention. As for Friends...was never my cup of tea. Just like Big Bang Theory and HIMYM aren't either.

You should try to watch Arrested Development Mc. The epitome of intelligent comedy.

Curb Your Enthusiasm >

by McAgger Wed Oct 19, 2016 1:15 am

Curb your Enthusiasm happened because of Seinfeld.

If you love that then watch Seinfeld you will be beyond loving it.

Thoroughly enjoyed that show. Had the biggest crush on Maeby.

I think I got through the 1st season of Curb Your Enthusiasm, but didn't really continue on with it. That was years and years ago though so I might give that another go.

One of the few shows that left me on the floor and had to pause so i can finish laughing. So so good man.

The Office UK is up there. Absolutely lost it at this.

by RealGunner Wed Oct 19, 2016 2:54 am

LMAOOOO

I'll watch that as my next sitcom

Never heard of it until this post.

Has good ratings. I'll check it out. If I love it, I'll give you full credit for this recommendation my friend.

Whats your verdict? Episode 4 comes out today!

wtf

that recent Netflix series The Get Down cost 16 million per episode - GoT cost 10m per episode this most recent season - a series high.

The Get Down looked meh as f. Netlix ffs

by Tomwin Lannister Thu Oct 20, 2016 5:17 pm

Yeah it got hyped because it's Netflix most expensive production ever. Looked shit to me.

only the UK lads will really appreciate it but I've been watching a lot of The Inbetweeners reruns lately, unreal show - can't believe it only ran for a couple of years ffs. Liked the first movie, second was fairly meh. So maybe that was a good time for it to end, but it was so accurate and authentic feeling. Classic show. Also can't believe it has been 6 years since it ended.

Loved the show. Liked the second movie more than the first though.

It's in my top 5 of all time easily. Seen it 6-7 times now and it's without a doubt the best comedy i have ever seen. It's a lot more than a sitcom. It so accurately shows British school culture. Everything about it is authentic. All the characters and their chemistry.

They did the right thing to end it then tbh. Remember reading that they all thought the jokes were getting a bit repeatable and they wanted to avoid that and end it on a high. Also that they all didn't look high schoolers.

by M99 Fri Oct 21, 2016 2:01 am

Loved Inbetweeners. It really was a brilliant show. I'm with Firenze, I loved the first movie but didn't really like the second one.

This scene will always remain a classic.

Yet to see the 2nd film.

by Glory Fri Oct 21, 2016 9:09 am

Hows Black Mirror guys ? I thought about watching Utopia then someone told me Black Mirror is even better.

BTW I started watching Stranger things. 2 episodes done. Looks promising and cool. Thumbs up

by El Gunner Fri Oct 21, 2016 10:45 am

Inbetweeners was sooooo good. I'm not British, and even I could relate to some of it.

by McLewis Fri Oct 21, 2016 4:58 pm

I think I stopped watching it after the 1st season. British American Pie.

It is funny though. I just have to watch that in doses. It's not bingeable for me.

Still haven't gotten around to watching the rest of the series or the movie though.

Both Black mirror and utopia are amazing. Stranger things too. Watch all 3 of them.

Inbetweeners was amazing. Seen all the seasons and the movies. So funny. It's just teenagers being portrayed like actual teenagers for once, not like other movies where they are all some deep philosophical thinkers with the dialogue they are given Laughing

by RealGunner Fri Oct 21, 2016 11:35 pm

They actually improvised quite a lot and wrote some of the scenes themselves. They had creative freedom which was nice.
