The season ended, that's the last episode to date.

Ah, thanks. Yesterday's was a strange one, though. Especially the bones one. *shudders*

My God. Did you see Christine Anu. that was terrible, she looked like a smack addict. Bit dissapointed by Syd NYE overall, but was alright, walking around for 3 hours was alright, even though i didn't end up getting to Blues point, and ended up watching it on TV at a friends. Still Happy New Year All!!! (thought i'd use capitals for that whole sentence)

The remix national anthem was a disgrace. Not in any patriotic way, it just sucked.

[Reply #564 on:]

I had no problem with the fact that they were doing the remix... until I actually heard it. It followed no tune, and just sounded like shit. Whoever approved that song wasn't just unaustralian, they were a fucking moron. 

[Reply #565 on:]

All I can say Is that its the crapiest song I have ever heard.

Perth didnt get sydneys fireworks. We got some shitty reruns of movies. Even country WA got sydney's fireworks.

[Reply #567 on:]

i hate channel 7, they find new ways to dissapoint me all the time. heres how things went.
Scrubs twice a week - Hurray!!!
Scrubs once a week - oh well still good
Scrub nonce a week - i hate you.

bastards.

[Reply #568 on:]

Arrested Development's not on this week either. 

I think they've taken a few things off for sport this week, hopefully they'll come back soon.

Dam Tennis to hell......

I was enjoying watching That 70's Show, but noooo, they had to bring back Home and Away! God dam no talent hacks, I could pull a better show out of my ass.

Ditto.
Still, i still got a laugh from Howard listening to it.

Has anyone seen that New maccas ad about pool safety? Is it just me or does ronald have a problem with lip-sync?

I haven't been keeping up with the TV scene recently, are any of the following on Free-to-air at the moment?
Red dwarf, Futurama, Family Guy.

Also, when's Rove coming back?

[Reply #571 on:]

Don't know, don't care. Probably in February, when EVERY show comes back.

Channel 7 haven't aired Futurama since April/May-ish. They were airing Family Guy in December, but stopped once the season was finished, so they're now up-to-date with Family Guy.

[Reply #572 on:]

bah, im sorta over rove, i dont want to sound really lame, but he's become to popular, i find the show a bit lame now. and DogDoo, i'm looking foward to this show you are talking about. 

[Reply #573 on:]

I dont know how many of you watch star trek, but anyway- Enterprise returns to Nine next Tuesday at Midnight

[Reply #574 on:]

Sweet, something new to watch, and by that I mean Enterprise not my ass show, thats gonna take a while. As its good and tastfull, so its gonna be hard to convice the exsecs to show it, and make it.......(walks of mumbling)

[Reply #575 on:]

I recommend Jeopardy on ABC. (No, not that Jeopardy. It's a Scotish/Australian cross show. Primo entertainment, I saw the first season a few years ago) Great if you like Scots in the outback getting scared and falling unconscious.
On a lighter note, has anybody seen that ad for the Aussie Queer Eye thing? I've never really liked the show, but I recommend everyone watch the ad just for the little girl's face and noise she makes. Hilarious.

SBS is showing 'Battlefield Britain' on Saturday night. I've downloaded a few episodes of it, and it's great. So I'm stoked. AND after it is Iron Chef - Strawberry Battle! STRAWBERRIES!

Now that will be fecking awsome. 

Queer eye, the only people there going to be "making over", are people that have names like "Dazza, wazza, kazza". And yeah I've seen the ad, that girl is probebly the only resson people will watch it. It just looks horribly awfull.     

[Reply #578 on:]

I think it being Australian will hit a little too close to home for the great unwashed, inherently homophobic, suburbanite Aussie commercial TV viewer.

I give it four weeks.

[Reply #579 on:]

Tennis until the 30th. No arrested development! Cock and balls!

[Reply #580 on:]

Wow, the Strawberry battle was as awesome as I thought it would be. A woman challenger! If you are in another time zone other than this one, watch the damn thing!

Though I do have it on tape. When I get my TV capture card, you can all have it!

Battlefield Britain was also great. Very well made. 7 more episodes to go.

[Reply #581 on:]

Iron Chef.
Man, that Strawberry Sorbe Safron soup and the strawberry moose spunge log, looked very dam tasty.

This Saterday is, Noodle battle.

[Reply #582 on:]

Noodle battle? Sweet. Haven't seen it before.

But yes, those desserts did look tasty... *drools*

DogDoo, you can be my Iron Chef buddy! Horay!

[Reply #583 on:]

YES, someone other then my mum to talk to about Iron Chef.

[Reply #584 on:]

Arrested development and scrubs appear to be off next week. I'll just buy the first season on DVD.

[Reply #585 on:]

I was watching TV and I saw the Battlestar galatica mini series, and the song there playing was "Space man" by Babylon Zoo. Man I haven't heard that song in so long.

Anyway, looks good, I can't wait until its on.

[Reply #586 on:]

Channel 10 are fucking idiots... they moved The Simpsons to 7:00pm, which is great, since that means they can hopefully show the PG episodes in regular rotation now. Or so you'd think... I was watching it last night, and they're STILL censoring it down to a G rating!!! They cut the last joke out of the Hellfish episode where the German guy things Grampa and Bart are gay. WHY bother showing it at 7:00pm if you're going to censor it anyway? Even worse is they do those crappy intros they did for The All-Time Greatest Simpsons. ARAGRARGHHHHH!!!

Who's in charge of Channel 10? I want to fly to his house and personally bash in his skull in with a golf club. Same with Channel 7 too for never being able to keep an American show in the same timeslot for more than a few weeks...

[Reply #587 on:]

I wouldn't have put it past them to have actually lost the original, uncut versions...

The only hope we have to ever see the originals again are the DVDs, it seems.

[Reply #588 on:]

They did show the New York episode a few weeks back (end of last year I think) which I thought I'd never see again....I'm glad they did though, I love that ep....

"Why did I drink all that crab juice....?" 

[Reply #589 on:]

So, did anyone catch the premier of "LOST"?
Well I did, and i have to say, I like it.

2 things sprang to mind when I saw it.

No.1 Did they land on the Island where Peter Jackson is filming KING KONG!
No.2 Did they land on the Island where the 3 surviving charicters from "Deep Riseing" landed at the end of the movie!

But, it looks like I will quite enjoy this show. I always love movies or shows when people get stranded on islands and there's some kind of monster on it aswell.

And STARGATES back aswell, yaaaay.

[Reply #590 on:]

Wait.... that was on yesterday, wasn't it?

...

Damn.

[Reply #591 on:]

Hey, not to worry, if you feel like staying up you can watch it at 11:30 tonight, or tape it, its after The King And I.

[Reply #592 on:]

it also has an encore on Saturday night.

i loved the way the engine was still spinning, just the sound and the images, it was awsome. and i thought it funny that the spend about 6 seconds on the guy getting sucked into the engine and the subsequent explosions, yet they spent 2 minutes on them climbing up the the cockpit o the plane.

also

Show spoiler

Aparently the fact that Jack started out separated from everyone else is a key point, or is important later

Well thats what i heard.

also

Show spoiler

Not so much a spoiler, but i think the "things" could be some sorta machine, it sounds sort of like an engine making those sounds, dinosaurs would be a bit lame

and finally. What the fuck is with that Fucking labrodore???

[Reply #593 on:]

Hmm... intriging concept... they've crash landed on robot Jurassic Park...

Cool.

This could be a fun show...

[Reply #594 on:]

How many pages back did I orgasm over 'The Untouchables'? It's on again tonight.

[Reply #596 on:]

Ok, I was watching ABC and I noticed something very bad indeed, they have now gone the way of 7, 9 and 10, they have a "Watermark".
  Luckely there was some good news on the channel, "The Glass House" will be returning, at the all new time of 9:30 Wednesday, thats right Tommorow.

Well i am off to watch my stories.....

[Reply #597 on:]

I watched Family Guy during the school holidays.
The only shows I watch are StarGate, MASH and The GlassHouse

[Reply #598 on:]

M*A*S*H? Legend!

Lost on again right now. The guy's a druggie!

[Reply #599 on:]

I'm kind of watching Lost at the moment. That fat Hector guy from Becker's on it. And some weirdo blew up the plane when he flushed his panadol down the toilet.
