Without having actually seen it yet, I recommend DESTROY BUILD DESTROY.

It does sound great. Andrew WK is kid of scary though. I can't imagine trying to maintain that persona for so long.

Wasn't sure where to post this, I had to let you know. This arrived today by post!



Thanks to all FOT for great suggestions...books, movies, tv shows, music. I'd still be watching MASH if it weren't for all of you. I love this forum! (I also like MASH very much)

Damn. I killed an otherwise interesting and informative thread with that dumb Mork and Mindy gag. 

Disagree. You killed an otherwise interesting and informative thread with a good Mork and Mindy gag.

I think between that and the Homicide discussion above, we just need a spinoff thread about missed plot/character opportunities for old TV shows, sort of like that "how the movie should have ended" thread that was also on the board somewhere a few months ago. I would start this, but I'm afraid my FOT flopsweat will show after the Video Analysis thread disaster and the Paul Stanley contest fiasco.

I'd like to see a spinoff show.  The Hills: Audrina's

Whats the one sandwiched between Darkplace and Look Around You Series 2? Based on the rest of the pile, I bet I want to watch it.

It's Snuff Box, a sketch show with Rich Fulcher.  I'd like to see that too.  Rich Fulcher plays the awesome Bob Fossil on the Boosh.

It's Nathan Barley by Charlie Brooker and Chris Morris, a satire of "new media" assholes.

Since Chris L. just mentioned him, he's a recent Brooker clip from his not-actually-that-great new show YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING.

I'd put Nathan Barley, Jam, Brass Eye, and The Day Today about two clicks higher in awesomeness than the rest of the shows here discussed.  They have a welcome undercurrent of evil and hate that is sadly lacking from such efforts as Snuff Box.
