This week's TV highlights |
|
|
Let's face it, most of you spend your
every waking moment slumped,
almost comatose, in front of the
radiation box. Social interaction is
a lost art, all that matters to you is
the flickering bright colours and
the vacant, slack jawed fucks you
call celebrities.
So here's the best of a bad lot for you
to slowly waste away in front of:
You'll Hate 1976 - Twenty-four part series of one-hour documentaries that examine every depressing aspect of the year 1976. A critic has said of it: "It is absolutely captivating from beginning to end. I often found at the end of an episode that I had soiled myself through wilful neglect, such was the engrossment factor." (ITV) There's Something About Bernie - Six unsuspecting suitors, each looking for the love of one beautiful corpse. (Sky One) The Newly Conceived - Reality TV show following the growth of Jessica Simpson's foetus! It's the unborn child with a style that's wild! (MTV) The Osmonds - Reality show that is Middle America's response to the death of culture and lack of morality in Life. (BBC 2) The Ormonds - Reality show that is the Midland's response to the death of culture and lack of morality in Laois. (RTE 2) FILMS Song for a Reggae Boy - Aidan Quinn stars as a lay teacher in a Jamaican school run by priests. He stands up for the kids against an abusive priest mon who won't let them listen to da dub reggae. Dead Poets Society meets Cool Runnings. Weekend at Bourney's - Matt Damon returns as Jason Bourne, international assassin. When his two college buddies accidentally kill him during a drinking game, a hilarious masquerade ensues as the two bungling fools pretend Bourney is still alive and carrying out hits. |
