Did anyone just see Eastenders, and the human-beatbox extravaganza. Mr Biffo wrote it.
All love for Mr Biffo has been partially restored (in part).

Just me then? I'll be at the bar...

I can't believe it. I was so looking forward to it. I thought it was on the 29th.

*sobs*

shish - October 28, 2003 11:42 AM (GMT)
Noooo!!!! I missed it! And I don't have BBC3!!!

Does anyone know when his "my parents are aliens" stories are being shown? I heard "november", but no dates...

shrinkwrapped - October 28, 2003 01:00 PM (GMT)
I don't know, but the series has started already.

Is there still an Eastenders Omnibus on Sundays?

superdan - October 29, 2003 11:04 PM (GMT)
Relax. They do still show the omnibus on Sundays.
As for the My Parents Are Aliens episodes, I heard that they're being "aired" in November and December, so I'll be straining my eyes at the squashed-up credits in search of the name 'Mr Biffo'.

It's probably the wrong "area" to talk about this, but has anyone noticed that this new series of My Parents Are Aliens seems a lot less funny than the others. Hopefully Biffo will see to that.

I "Heart" My Parents Are Aliens!!!

Has it ever been very funny? The laughter track doesn't help matters.

Mind you, I enjoyed all the drugs references the other week.

It used to be cracking. Especially with the old mum, with the blonde hair.

(That sentence must sound weird, especially to someone who doesn't know that the forum is dedicated to "various nocturnal activities".)

MPAA is miles better than the rest of the crud on Children's TV. Except The Cramp Twins. That is most excellent!

Is she the actress that used to appear on Knowing Me, Knowing You and various Chris Morris-related projects?

Possibly God - October 30, 2003 05:43 PM (GMT)
Den said "CUNTstable". It's stuff t'dreams are made of.

She certainly is. She worked at the motel in Knowing Me, Knowing You.

Chris Morris is funnee.

Does anyone remember the name of that Chris Morris program about the rock group? Just out of interest?
Y'know, the song went "Let me tell 'ya' 'bout funk and justice, funk and justice for all".
Nobody remembers it, do they? I must have just imagined it.


I liked the CUNTstable bit as well. Hee, hee.

Ah yes, no the 'travel tavern' was in I'm Alan Partrige, not KMKY...

Funk and justice for all? Are you sure that wasn't a segment on another program (like The Day Today) or something?

Man, I feel like such a stereotypical student geek.

I don't know, man. I JUST DON'T KNOW!

I wasn't even drunk.

I remember it "being" on weekly, though, when I was at primary school. And it was only me and this funny-looking girl who liked to be called Beryl, even though that wasn't her real name, who watched it.

It was definately Morris-related.

I know that primary school kids shouldn't be watching Chris Morris shows, but my parents were too lenient, and drunk, to be bothered to stop me.

It was late-night (not kiddie humor), and they used to go around saving people.

It was on around the same time as Quantum Leap.

Hmmmm...

skank_boy - November 2, 2003 09:43 PM (GMT)
no.

even stevens is the best "kids" tv programme. ever.

superdan - November 2, 2003 11:06 PM (GMT)
What's "even stevens"?

It sounds rubbish.


I'm sorry... :(

And it can't be worse than 'Maid Marion And Her Merry Men'. That sucked beyond compare.

superdan - November 2, 2003 11:10 PM (GMT)
Wow! I like that face I just did. I never knew that I had such power.

Watch whilst I experiment:

There is no correlation between cuss-cumber production, and the amount of Phosporous lost.

Even Stevens is okay, but the actors annoy me a lot.

Have you capital squires never seen an episode of 'The Adventures of Pete and Pete'?

It is truly The Aces.

giant_frying_pan - November 3, 2003 06:48 PM (GMT)
I think we were discussing kids TV shows that are being made today. Pete & Pete was indeed the goodness.

What?! Maid Marrion was one of the best kid's programmes ever.

Cutting political satire disguised as a children's show. Mad Margaret the Thatcher - beat that, Private Eye.

superdan - November 3, 2003 08:17 PM (GMT)
Kids, and stupid people, don't understand stuff about Mrs Thatcher.

All they/we 'get' is the stupid songs about the dentist, and that.

Now a good kids program is Wilmot.
T'is truly a classic sitcom. The episode where Wilmot builds a roller-coaster in his back garden is pure class.
And you've got to love Silent Edith, and Terry. They so funneee.

This sounds like The Glam Metal Detectives, though that was by Peter Richardson (of The Comic Strip Presents... fame) rather than Chris Morris. Though it did have Doon Mackichan in, who's appeared in several Morris shows.

Sildrohar - November 5, 2003 11:09 AM (GMT)
Dead Computer Magazines (not ambiguous) and Ancient TV Kid Shows (ambiguous).
This is rapidly becoming The Weekly's COLLOQUIUM - First Series.
And we all know what happened to it, don't we?

([I"COLLOQUIM"? What's that?" - Everyone.[/I])

Exactly.

Sildrohar - November 5, 2003 11:12 AM (GMT)
Damn SCIENCE.
Damn it to hell.

superdan - November 5, 2003 08:56 PM (GMT)
But what does that mean?

Also, The Glam Metal Detectives rocks/rocked. Danke schon.
