TV Series


Sorry to any Americans here, but I always thought the central idea of the game show Jeopardy was stupid, and the constant repetition of “what is…”, “who is….” always got on my tits. I couldn’t understand how it was such an institution in the US, and was always pleased it was never really a Uk thing.

Until I just saw it on ITV with Stephen Fry, and it’s boring as F.

I can be wrong but I always assumed it was inspired by the Carnac the Magnificent shtick on the Johnny Carson show.
 


Only a 4 part mini drama, but I watched Mr. Bates v The post office last night…. All 4 in one go. Truly disgusting how the post office ruined the lives of so many people and failed to accept any responsibility…. An added bonus was the Snowdonia scenery, I was out walking yesterday in many of the places it was filmed.
Caught a bit of that, that the lie was 'there's only you with these losses' is criminal conspiracy to me. On a corporate level. The largest miscarriage of justice in british history apparently. Now look at who sold the post office and the proviso's. It's the same bunch of very bad eggs that've cut the thalidomide compensation scheme, and suggested to the blood scandal victims that the country has no money. All the sleaze and criminality traces back to the same scum time after time.

It`s outstanding and you find yourself getting angrier and angrier as your watching it.

From what I`ve read, I think are investigating the way it was handled, with a view to criminal charges.
 
Good article this:



I've thought for a while there's a lot of dismal, bland dare I say 'conservative' telly at the moment with spikes of weird originality. Been rewatching Space 1999 recently, seriously trippy tv.
