What are you watching on TV? Page 1,033

Who, with the possible exception of ITDavid, "researches" sketches? All you do is watch a load of old sketch shows, puts some new hats on the characters, modernise it by mentioning "the internet" and you're basically done.

Don't forget to throw in some swear words if you don't have a decent punchline.

I've never reached the point of caring if they're in a real jungle or not - what does it matter . . . ?

Why do you watch it then? What purpose does it serve? Does not compute. Does not compute.

You do know that Top Gear was on tonight?

Just the basic human interaction - not as if I'm a fan or anything - calm down dear, ya telly snob! I'm going to carry on watching 'The Lives Of Others' after if that makes you feel better?

Top Gear makes me want to hurt people . . .

It's strange how so many people on here have commented on it - I've had it for two years on another forum without a single mention . . .

Flaminglips.com - there are some avatars on there that I'm sure would make your mind explode . . . !

THE NEEEWWWWWWSSSS!

Punchlines are easy. You just come up with about ten and stick'em in randomly at the end of sketches...

- "Oops, I shouldn't have done that"
- "F**k me, your Holiness"
- "What about jam?"
- "And for my next trick..."
- "Oh, sorry, I thought you said you were 'stuck'"
- "Here's your antibiotics, Miss Spears"
- "Well no-one told me he was a transvestite"
- "C**t!"
- "Oh well, I suppose we'll just have to ask Peter Duncan"
- "No, you fool, I meant ear muffs"
- "I happen to be on very good terms with the Furher"
- "Fine. I guess I'll just have a prostitute then"
- "Congratulations, Mrs Brown, it's a Jesuit!"
- "What pencil?"
- "How about a buy-to-rent boy?"
- *BANK MANAGER shakes fist as DIABETIC runs away wanking*
- "Who said anything about my wife?"
- "I think you'll find that's my leg"
- "No, you fool, I said 'pistachio nuts'!" *shakes fist*
- "Oh, go rim yourself, you cantankerous old queen"

Et cetera...

Sounds like a classic in the making . . . !

Well, it's an art as much as a science...

I really enjoy his radio show.

Keep hearing the trailers for it but never remember to listen . . .

Good plan. It's like a Woody Allen film without the laughs...

I think it was cancelled before filming finished.

The second season premiered on September 25, 2009. After four episodes, the show was put on hiatus in the United States during November 2009, but was scheduled to return in December with back-to-back double episodes. Fox officially cancelled the series on November 11, 2009 during production of the 11th episode but will air all thirteen episodes that were ordered
