"Come Get Some": A Spaced Thread.

[Reply #600 on:]

I watched it, it was okay, on current evidence it is no where near as good as Red Dwarf though, hopefully it will be better when the characters get established.

[Reply #601 on:]

I missed it, but considering the office-talk on it today, it was pretty good.  I'll be watching next week.

Anyone catch Nick Frost's new comedy Hyperdrive last night?

Well I was going to watch it last night but Lost final episodes was on the other night. I am going to have to download the episode. I don’t know why anybody has mentioned Man Stroke Woman yet because it is a brilliant sketch show.

[Reply #603 on:]

BUMP for those who has missed the first episode BBC2 is going to show the episode again tonight at 10pm

[Reply #604 on:]

Awesome, watching now.  Lovin' it so far.

EDIT:

Standouts obviously were Frost and Kevin Eldon, who was barking mad.  Comparisons against Red Dwarf might be unjust, hopefully it'll get better too, but I thought that wasn't a bad first episode at all!

[Reply #605 on:]

The one with the aliens licking their hands and head was disturbing

[Reply #606 on:]

Eldon's character, York, was pretty damn good, played like a total lunatic (something which he's insanely brilliant at).

This was the bit which made me laugh out loud the most:

Alien: This is meeting room 2?
Captain: Er, yup.
Alien: It smells!  That sign says "Urine Processing Plant".
Captain: This is also the room where we keep the signs for other rooms.

Also, the gag about the ship reverting to system defaults after a reboot was pretty funny.

Next week looks cool

The site

[Reply #608 on:]

I won't be watching tonight as I'm working, so I'll be catching the repeat on Sunday.

[Reply #609 on:]

Same with me because I am watching Desperate Housewives on the other side

[Reply #610 on:]

I'm glad I decided to give it a second go, I found the second episode to be much more amusing that the first.

[Reply #611 on:]

Meanwhile:

Check out Jess's new movie.

With Jimmy Carr, Martin Freeman, Olivia Colman, and more.... no less.   Looks very cool!

[Reply #612 on:]

Another week, another new Hyperdrive (I missed Sundays because of the sodding snooker overrunning, they never showed it!)

Tonight's was brilliant.  More Eldon greatness, and Nick Frost/Miranda Hart love story thing worked out fantastically!

Laugh out loud moment was the word "bumhole" floating around the sex-room.

[Reply #613 on:]

I have to download this episode. I have downloaded the the last week's episode because On Wednesday I did not watch it and on Sunday was waiting for it but Snooker was on.

[Reply #614 on:]

Melll, if you missed the second episode I suggest you download it from a certain site, I think it was the best of the three so far... episode three was pretty good though 

[Reply #615 on:]

Better still I shall put the episode on DVD and hand it to you on Sunday

[Reply #616 on:]

Or even better, wait until the 6 episode run is over, and download em all! 

[Reply #617 on:]

That episode was good and I too like the love/will they won't they story between Henderson and Teal. I am hoping that they will get together in the future. I do like Nick Frost in the Gentleman suit   

[Reply #618 on:]

Bump

The last two final episodes was really good. The one where Henderson tries the rescue the crazy woman was good but the very last one where York took over the ship was the best.

[Reply #619 on:]

Bump!
Simon Pegg plans a one hour special to finish off Spaced.

Just thought I would link you guys to some Hot Fuzz news in the form of the first web blog.

Now how's that for a slice of Fried Gold?

[Reply #621 on:]

thumbs up for you Jamesbondcja  thanks

[Reply #622 on:]

Two pieces of encouraging news, the vid blog for Hot Fuzz is great.  Here's to them starting filming finally.

In other news, I watched Nick in ManStrokeWoman tonight, it wasn't bad.

[Reply #623 on:]

Cool pic of Simon in MI:III.

[Reply #624 on:]

Back to Spaced, for fans everywhere, here's the two shoot-outs from Series 2, Episode 5:

Shoot-out 1

Shoot-out 2

[Reply #625 on:]

Big Train night is on right no on UKTV G2 and I would love to watch it becuase mark Heap  and Simon Pegg but I got work to do. I don't have a video tape to tape it

[Reply #626 on:]

BUMP

The second Series of Man Stroke Woman has just started last week on BBC3 and it was really funny. Have you guys seen it?  I have uploaded some Nick Frost clips:

Well Hello Emergency Services
Uncle and Nephew

This one is not mine
Bad Hangover

And on this links there lots of Hot Fuzz video log

[Reply #627 on:]

Nicholas Burns is still in ManStrokeWoman?  That guy cracks me up.  He's the guy who was born to play Nathan Barley.

Hot Fuzz is out in a couple of weeks over here.  Can't bloody wait.

In other news, Spaced is on BBC America in the US.  Tune in, dammit!

[Reply #628 on:]

Yes he is still on it and here is one of his best sketch so far:

Here's a fan review from Spaced-Out (which I recently returned to):

 

Went to the Hot Fuzz screening and Q&A session in Bristol last night...

(review posted in the Movie Review Thread)

***

Round up from the Q & A

   

• There will be NO Spaced 3 (Simon gave the guy a packet of Jaffa Cakes for asking the question that had every hardcore slapping his own forehead in pompous disbelief). Although Simon wavered a bit and said "I always say never say never..." he said that the time has passed, it won't be particularly interesting to see those characters now, and it's logistically very difficult.

      Not even "for a one off special like This Life +10". I guess there was an upside to This Life +10 after all!
   

• La Triviatta (the pub quiz sitcom Nick and Simon were writing) is no more. It was written, green lit and casting, but got held up due to Nick and Simon having reservations over some of the choices Channel 4 wanted. By the time everyone could agree, Shaun of the Dead was hitting big and the time for La Triviatta had passed. Nick said it was a shame, as they wrote some great jokes together, but they would be "harvested, like organs," and used in their next project.
• Speaking of which, the next projects from the Holy Trinity (Wright/Pegg/Frost, as I'm now going to refer to them) will be a project written by Simon and Nick, with Edgar involved, but not as director, and then a Simon/Edgar scripted project which Nick will appear in.[/small]

So, confirmed.  No more Spaced.  I guess it was too much to ask.

We'll hope that the movie projects will continue for a long time to come.

[Reply #630 on:]

Shame about Spaced. I was very disappointed with Man Stroke Woman this week because of a certain dog scene. I find it offensive.

Other then that I went to meet Simon, Nick and Edgar and saw Hot Fuzz with friends in Birmingham

Damn Juli! Well done, were they in a pub or something?

[Reply #632 on:]

The Cinema had a bar

[Reply #633 on:]

Wow - major congrats there Juli! Looks fantastic! 

And to think I was going to say my claim to fame is that I've walked around Wells...
Which, while beautiful, is a bloody strange place, if you consider that it really is just a small rural town with narrow streets and all the buildings being at least 150 years old and suddenly you see a small signpost saying "City centre, this way..." 

Pity about Spaced but I also say long-life to the partnership and the films!

[Reply #634 on:]

That is awesome Juliet 

The new film sounds pretty cool, I hope it is as good as Shaun of the Dead.

[Reply #635 on:]

Hmm, I think I reckognise that other girl too.

Nick has his beard back, which means that he's back playing Commander Henderson, and a quick check on BBC's Website says that Hyperdrive is shooting Series 2.  Wee!

[Reply #636 on:]

Brilliant! Do you know when the first series is coming on DVD?

[Reply #637 on:]

Maybe coincide with when the 2nd series is aired?  I dunno.  I have series one authored to DVD anyways.

As a regular Radio Five-Live listener, here's Mark Kermode's weekly podcast, featuring a review of Hot Fuzz, and also Simon and Edgar are in the studio:
