mine goes something like this:
I used ta watch
Roseanne
Malcolm in the Middle
Modern Family

now I'm onto - The Middle

outstanding Amerikan sitcoms :D
available here - http://watch-series.com/

and a musical trip down memory lane:
went back to my old school's area this week (many memories stirred) and all those tunes I grew up with came back, so Spotifyâ„¢ sorted me out with -
Carole King ~ Tapestry
Mott the Hoople ~ Brain Capers
Strawbs ~ just really early stuff and lots of it

12 posts then bin? :urff:

I'm watching almost nothing but Scrubs at the moment. A LOT of Scrubs.

Listening to a lot of "new dark rock" bands. Very interested in emerging artists around the UK making dark and alternative music that sounds fresh and exciting.

Scrubs is quite funny.


I just plowed through all three seasons of Deadwood. I cannot recommend it highly enough (provided you've got a strong tolerance for profanity). The entire show is about political philosophy.

Struggling to find anything NEW to get into at the moment....nothing decent on the TV and all the music that's coming out, sounds like it's been done before...

70's Glam Rock has been making in roads into my current listening pleasures...Suzi Quatro, Gary Glitter, Mud, Osmonds, Sweet, Bowie, Alice Cooper...even some Slade FFS!! :roll:

I guess I'll eventually catch up with the rest of the world, by the time I'm dead :?

High hopes, yet to be fullfilled.

My US sitcom joy started with Taxi and has only been surpassed by Two and a Half Men. :notworthy: x infinity.

Samantha Who's creeping up though...

God bless Comedy Central. :lol:

Oh, maybe Happy Days came before Taxi? And Different Strokes?

Tom & Jerry?

American comedy just doesn't cut it for me. Sorry.

IT Crowd does.
Charlie Brooker does.

Don't know if you're laughing with her or at her... but personally, I think she's pretty ace.

i don't recall ever coming across a bidisha piece that contained what resembles a nugget of humour, so laughing with her is out of the question.



let's agree to disagree on that one shall we? :)

Aye, I think so... don't worry, I'm well aware feminism is no longer fashionable. But then, neither's crimping your hair to buggery or listening to the Sisters, but that's never stopped me either :lol: :P

I watched a very blurry VHS copy of the feature-length pilot. Very clumsy but quite intriguing. Recommended?

Not that I'm one to put the cat amongst the pigeons, but isn't feminism a bit 'overkill' these days? It's not as though you have to rail against men prejudicing against you for your gender...is it?

Seems to me we're all more than busy just trying to get on with it.
