2024 + 2025 TV and Movies Thread

I would rather have my teeth pulled one by one followed by a circumcision and a castration than have to endure watching an episode of big brother.

anyone who can endure watching it has my admiration for being so tolerant and able to do so.

however you will also have my opinion of your stance as a professional and worthy member of society reduced by a huge amount.
I will still talk to you but consider you a Pratt!!!

Remember the scene in A Clockwork Orange when Alex is forced to watch the film. Nothing less than that would make me watch BB, Love Island, Made in Chelsea or a few other programs in that genre.

So not your jam, then, guys?


I have been watching Agatha All Along on Disney, and it seems to fit into the “we’re Marvel, people will watch it, I don’t care how good it is” section.

Also rewatching Star Trek: Strange New Worlds in preparation for the season 3

I get the impression that BB makes up the rules of a game as they go along?

That Red/blue thing didn’t really go anywhere except who’s up for first eviction. (Spoiler: most of them)

I’ve never seen so many teeth veneers in one go

Of course BB just does it's think.
When this series first came on they say something like "Who wins.... you decide..." to which I said "No we don't" my daughter looked at me like I was thick and replied "yes we do, we vote". I had to point out that, the way BB edits what is happening influences who people vote for. I've seen it happen with Nikki Grahame in series 6.

I thought they had all had the Turkey Teeth job done..

So no change for me then..

No. Because if anyone says “you’re fired” I get flashbacks.


TV.

Dancing on ice is still on.
If you don’t know, me and my middle daughter volunteer teaching ice skating to kids on Sundays in the winter.
When “DOI” starts on tv there’s a major influx of new members.

Britains Got Talent started last Saturday, so that’s a new crop of mediocre singers, crappy dog acts and kid magicians…. Oh, and not forgetting the silent horror shock acts… usually sword swallowers or people inserting other sharp objects into various orifices.


Movies.

Watched the latest Marvel film, “Captain America Brave New World” and it’s actually one of the better recent offerings.
