Anya ,'Get It Done'
This thread is part of an experiment to determine Buffistas' interest in television discussion. It will close on June 1st, 2007, after which there will be a brief skirmish to sort out what we want to do next. This thread is for discussion of all comedy, regardless of airing station. [NAFDA]
I watched HIMYM tonight: LOVED it.
I've watched a couple of episodes of HIMYM and I just can't get past the laugh track. It just really bothers me now. I'm watching Sports Night dvds right now and I was shocked to hear a laugh track on that too. It sounds so outdated to me.
Do you guys get Peep Show or The Mighty Boosh over there? They're my two current favourites.
Jars!
I'm about 394032903 episodes behind on Peep Show. Is it out on DVD?
Jars, a couple of my friends have been trying to get me to watch Boosh for months.
What little of Peep Show I've seen has been funny. It depends if you can cope with the concept of seeing something entirely from the character's point-of-view (literally) and hearing their thoughts.
Yeah, up to Season two of Peep Show is out on dvd, I think. And I know it's what people say about shows all of the times, but it's funny because it's true. Painfully so.
And P-C, your life would be incalculably enhanced by watching of the Boosh. DO IT!
I have a friend who absolutely adores Boosh. Never encountered it myself, though.
Oh SA, you should definitely give it a try. It takes a few episodes for a lot of people to get into the humour, I think. But it's oh so worth it.
A clip, to get you in the mood, perhaps?
Not so interesting that it needed saying twice.
Jars! Jars!
Sorry, I'm just excited to see somebody I know.
