mikeyp102 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 20 hours ago, HanoiVillan said: Agree with this. The roughly 50% of the episode that was in Kazakhstan was excellent - probably the most I've enjoyed anything on Top Gear for years, I actually re-watched it - and the Ferrari bit was fine, if a bit 'meh'. But the studio stuff was awful. I just think they should ditch that part of the show. Have the confidence to have a different format FFS, it doesn't have to come back to three blokes in a hangar with a thousand gurning acolytes. Just watched the new series (I've never bothered with grand tour or that with the ginger gob shite). The Kazakh stuff was good but in the studio it seemed so wooden and forced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) They didn't do Khazakstan justice to be honest , so much more they could have shown , but then again it isn't a travel show and the launch site is in the arse end of nowhere so it's understandable . Rory has clearly decided to take the annoying one role , says it all when your role is to be the poor mans Hammond . Harris comes across as a bit of a cock and not a nice one at that But it wasn't terrible and on the whole I enjoyed it ....not as good as Grand Tour but miles better than the Evans era TG and that's about as good as they could have expected tbh Edited March 6, 2017 by tonyh29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Started watching "1000 ways To Die" last night. Basically its a show that showcases Darwin Awardian, Final Destinationy ways in which people kick the bucket. The re enactments are corny, and heavy on the blood, but I found it quite entertaining, and embarrassing that I was giggling at other people's tragic misfortunes. It is an interesting show, and I would recommend it. I give it two severed thumbs up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddywhack Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I'm late to the party but I've just watched all of Rick and Morty. I love it, I'm tempted to just re-watch them all straight away. I can't even think of anything that it's like, it seems fairly unique unless there's a whole genre of I'm unaware of. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch the pilot. it's on YouTube. My reaction was "Someone has watched this pilot and green lighted a full season!" I mean, I'm really glad they did, because it's brilliant. But seriously, wtf.

Futurama meets family guy. A lot of the Rick and Morty ideas were in Futurama first. I've watched every episode about 100 times. I so hope season 3 isn't crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Gravity Falls and Over the Garden Wall aren't really comparable to Rick and Morty, other than being good American cartoons that I would recommend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the Garden Wall is superb, but you're right in that it's nothing like Rick and Morty. Adventure Time is awesome too. Can't wait for when season three of Rick and Morty is finally given a release date (for real this time, Rick-rolling arseholes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
