QUOTE (Spider Dijon @ May 9 2007, 02:00 PM) Does anyone else think this is stupid? Why would I want to hear what other people like watching on television, and it makes a difference they're celebrities how?  But they're geeks. Therefore it's interesting (and rather comforting) to know they like to watch the same shite on telly that I do/did. |

Yeah, Mr Grinch!
 What Ghosty said. Geeks like to share their love of whatever they geeking out over. And it's even better if they're celebrity geeks, like Simon & Nick.  Feel the (geek) love. dolfyn.

I've got great taste but chances are i'm not going to get my own two hour show to talk about it. It is, let's face it, cheap to make telly. Having said that - Pegg and Frost are back on the small screen! This post has been edited by sarkybarker: May 9 2007, 02:21 PM |

Yeah guys, don't get me wrong, Pegg and Frost are great! Being geeks doesn't make a difference though? You should be proud of what television preference you have yourselves, why do you need any confirmation that other people (primarily Simon and Nick) like it too. Thats all I'm saying.

I thought it was more about the TV shows that inspired them growing up or inspire them now, and so have a certain impact on their work/careers that we're fans of. Plus they're showing clips of Simon and Nick's early flashes in TV before Spaced.

Thats all I'm saying. Geeks of a feather, and all that. And I don't care what anyone says, I'll never be 'proud' of the fact that I like Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. It's utter shite, and I knows it. |

I've just realized the Lucas/Walliams episode didn't make it over the pond through my usual channels.
Shit. |

I wasn't really overly struck on the Walliams/Lucas episode to be quite frank - their patter seemed more than a little wishy-washy. I am, however, looking very much forward to the next episode...

Aw. The first few posts got me all excited about a sitcom. I was thinking maybe it was that super secret thing they were talking about in THIS interview.
QUOTE Simon Pegg: We're writing a film together here for the autumn. Question: You two are writing? Simon Pegg: Yeah, and I think Edgar is going to direct, or produce or script supervise. Question: Can you talk about it? Simon Pegg: Not really. Question: Is it a comedy? Simon Pegg: Yeah, but we just don't want to talk about it. But this sounds fun too. I'm sure they'll set it up to be just as funny as everything else they do. This post has been edited by Alienlint: May 9 2007, 07:10 PM |

Although it was good to see some things, like Big Daddy/Giant Haystacks, and the Walliams/Gatiss Who sketch. (Even though their Peter Davison one is far funnier.) The next one will be great, if only to see Dave Ross, creator of the Daleks. |

This show was never going to be ground breaking, as people have said it's essentially a cheap to produce nostalgic trip, much like those 'Top 100' things except with a different host each time (probably only worth watching if you like that weeks hosts). I enjoyed last weeks a bit, but then I sometimes quite enjoy silly nostalgia. |

I thought Lucas was good but Walliams looked like he wanted to be somewhere else. In bed with a young blonde lady perhaps? |

Maybe he did. But he did have something to say on the Flash Gordon/Star Wars debate. Namely that although SW is the better film, FG is better to watch.
