I love it so.
Is it about ladies' naked feet and white people who can't stop using the N Slur, Quents?
IYKYK, but if you don't know, all details are in the alt
THE GREATEST
Guess how many times I have seen DVDs of or adverts for The Smashing Machine and said it to myself in That Voice
not even lauding, just maaayyybe complaining in advance that none of the cast are famous is incredibly counterproductive when we already find it so hard to make anything new without A Name Attached which is how we ended up with 100 Famous Man Goes On Holiday (possibly with parent) shows, Bluesky
You will probably like ghost of tsushima and the new tomb raider games if you liked rdr2!
Which ones?
Right?? Same!
Hahaha oh god
Exactly!
It might be, we don't know! But I saw a slow of people complaining they didn't recognise anyone in the cast which was dispiriting! It's not strictly!
Oh ho ho, my laughter is in 'still bitter that The Nightly Show just BROKE ITV comedy comissions for YEARS'
I LOVED script editing newsjack but they were long days that would NOT make interesting bts content
My experience of it = a lot of meetings, frowning at laptops, getting sad katsu curries at 8pm before the wasabi shut bc it was the only hot food nearby, getting kicked out of meeting rooms by execs in nbh/new tvc bc the booking system was shocking
I'm going to be honest as someone who used to make a lot of topical comedy shows with 3-4 day turnarounds... it's more boring to the outside eye than you might think
Wayy!
power washing powerwashingggg
wait there's a cat based mystery
and a governmental conspiracy
and a long dead ancient race
and a TIME LOOP???
19 is also INCREDIBLE but yes, seconded on 5
I wasn't expecting it to be so narrative!
It's very very good at having a couple of You Know, Him Off Thing people as a draw and also including multiple much less famous people so everyone can see how great they are.
She's brill. Loads of them are, and my old pal Grainne's a main writer and she is honestly so good
POWERWASH YESSSSSSS
Can't believe Britsky is making me pre-emptively defend a show that wouldn't give me a job after I spent a day applying for it because you're frightened of seeing a sketch show with people who aren't already famous in it.
Comments off bc I know what you fuckers are like.
Me in my bathroom looking manic. Wearing yellow and red, the same colours as my book with the same logo on the tshirt. The book is blurred and upside down. I am dishevelled.
Bugger! World book day! Sugar sugar bollocking bugger balls!!! Marketing.... Ok. All my author friends are doing it. Get with it Sacha!!! Dress as my book? Yes. Hold book? Yes. Look approachable? ...
#worldbookday
Weeping with fear at seeing a comedy show that doesn't have Romesh in it so we don't know what it is
Britsky: Everything's so samey these days, where's all the new art?
Also Britsky: This one sketch show doesn't have a cast that's all people who've been Mock the Week Level famous for at least 15 years, put it back
Guys you can watch the same 12 comedians who've been on every show for the past 20 years on literally any of the few remaining other comedy shows
definitely!
ooooooooh
