That Takes Balls, Man

Well, it’s been a while since an update, but fuck you. I’ve been busy with more important shit.
Like the previous post I wrote, this one is about Media Watch. However, this time it’s on a more serious note since they didn’t take up my fantastic idea of recording the show in front of [...]

I’m Looking Forward To The Barra-Lotto

Recently I’ve been taking some sleeping tablets to help me sleep, and I’m convinced that the fucking things are why I’ve been having some really fucked-up dreams. Last night, for example, I had a quite vivid dream where Media Watch was a live comedy show that featured a studio audience. It’s timeslot was [...]

Best Get A Cup Of Tea Into Ya, Yeah?

Anyone who knows me well will know that I watch about 8/10ths of fuckall television. The only shows I make time for are Family Guy and The Bill.

Straight to the point.

If There Was One Thing Dad Loved More Than “Hey Hey It’s Saturday”

Alright, so I’ve decided to weigh into the Hey Hey It’s Saturday blackfella debate, because if you think about it my opinion is highly regarded and all discussion can pretty much end after I’ve spoken.
Hey Hey It’s Saturday was on air for just shy of 30 fucking years. In television, that’s a fucking long [...]
