What are you watching at the moment?

@Dov

I've seen the Mr. Bean stuff. I agree that the original tv series' are better than the movies, and yeah, the second Johnny English isn't on par with the first, imo. Needs more Bough.

I hadn't heard of the Youtube stuff, so I'll give it a look.

[The SheoDovah]

I think films in the Holiday format would work but the nature of Mr bean is a bit limited in what one can do outside of the tv show. It may be because I grew up with Mr Bean but the animated series seem a bit odd. I think Rowan really makes Mr Bean in terms of physical comedy whereas, animated bean is a bit meh. Shame that they recycled a lot of stuff for both films but Mr Bean's Holiday is the best Bean film.

Just got done watching all three prequel OVAs for Ancient Magus Bride, not that I haven't already watched the first two.. But every time a new one comes out, I just gotta binge them together. And now with all three? It really does feel complete.. And very much like a film, but also in terms of how it is told and the overall quality. After all, it's not like they didn't spend what feels like half a year on each episode alone

But ya, that lil binge really brought a much needed smile. Plus, that music tho

[The SheoDovah]

Watching Taskmaster at the moment and er.... I did not expect that to occur! It's quite NSFW and really not something i expect to see. Funny as hell though.

[Aarah]

I didn't see all of it. You mean Sally's watercooler moment? It reminded me of back when she did Smack the Pony.

[The SheoDovah]

Yes. That is not something i ever thought i'll see on Dave. Do I even want to know what smack the pony involved?

[Aarah]

It was just a comedy sketch show with all sorts of silly stuff.

[The SheoDovah]

There's silly stuff and then there's "Bloody hell! Where's the remote!? Turn the volume down!" type stuff. I mean, Taskmaster is something i never thought I'll see risque stuff featured on.

Tonight is Red Dwarf Season 12 and Zapped time! I think Rimmer may be an utter smeeeee..... Smeeeeeee heeeeeeeeeeee. A smeeeee.....ggggg......heeeaaaaaaad in this one.

[The SheoDovah]

DOUBLE POST TIME!

Watched Red Dwarf last night. Tis average and really underpreformed with Kryten central. I mean, they had so much to work with and it would have been very interesting to see. Zapped was better thugh twas less predictable. Watched RWBY on RT yesterday. [&@%!]. The.Video.Player. [&@%!] only works for me in Firefox and that is a bit of a pain to get working. Still, great season opening. Not keen on the intro sequences, the song lacks something.

Watching all of the Idubbz's Content Cop, bc 1) I'm bored, 2) bc I can, and 3) Their always great to watch again, bc seriously, it's YouTube gold

I've been watching Peep Show, just finished the second series. And it's great, I love Mitchell & Webb's sketch comedy so I have no idea why it took me this long to start Peep Show.

I've also been watching Louis Theroux documentaries on and off on Netflix. Quality varies, some of them are really good, you might get insight into some really vile hateful people for example. Others though are pretty weak basically entirely as a result of his approach, not just the subject matter. Like he lacks a nuanced understanding of crime in the United States and boy does it show in the questions he asks people. Likewise his documentary on Scientology is basically a film about how hard it is to make a documentary about Scientology. Which okay, it was still kind of entertaining and you meet people who've been excomunicated but it wasn't as informative as it could be.

I'm currently watching Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Walking Dead and Star Trek: Discovery. Decent shows, especially Curb.

Recovery of a MMO Junkie, Episode 8...

:

Aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

It's all too much for one Beta to handle.. Too much..

[BetaB17]

So, like, idk, but I serious am loving this short binge this web mini-series, People Watching, which in some cases, kind of hits home or somewhere in the ballpark, and if not? It's still tackling mature subjects that in some way hold relevance in life somehow. It's, interesting, and something I serious recommend a try

[BetaB17]

Just got done watching The Foreigner, and, like, damn... That's a good movie. Nice aside Taken, bc Jackie Chan can make revenge look even more badass ^_^

[Zenith]

I'm watching Elfen Lied right now. If you haven't heard of it, it's a really strange anime about... well, it's an interesting experience to go in blind, so I won't spoil anything lol. Although it seems to have achieved meme status because of how weird it can get, it's legitimately a good show imo.

[Blackhawk Vegal]

every 2 yrs I rewatch all 17 seasons of Stargate sg1 (10), Atlantis (5) and Universe (2), and its that time again, stated yesterday

[BetaB17]

I am literally dying from lack of sleep and sheer laughter, mostly by lack of sleep, but [&@%!] hell I'm busting a gut. Why do I marathon Arma3 n Battlefield funny-montages ate at night? But like, tonight.. Mostly SovietWombles n his mates.. Busted guts left right and center(and so much sleep lost, so much)

[Unionhack]

I finished Star Trek: The Original Series.

Onto The Next Generation!

[SeaGtGruff]

I kind of wish they hadn't tampered with ST:TOS. I liked the unretouched version better.

[Unionhack]

It was the unretouched version. I think they only messed with a few episodes IIRC.

[SeaGtGruff]

I have the first season of the retouched episodes on HD-DVD. (Yes, I went with HD-DVD when I bought my first HD player, just in time for them to discontinue HD-DVD a few months later!) A lot of the graphical changes were okay-- not obtrusive, so you might not even know they weren't the original graphics-- but I really hated the way they recorded a new performance of the opening music, because the balance between the vocalist and the various instruments just didn't seem right to my ears. They redid all three seasons, but I only bought the first one on HD-DVD, and haven't bought any of them on Blu-Ray yet. After the series was redone for HD, that's what all the TV and cable stations show now. The picture quality is definitely much improved.

[BetaB17]

So umm.. Junji Ito got an anime now..
