    I really hope the Gameswipe rumours are true :)
    and if he does screenwipe again the first thing he'll do is rip the piss outta his own show


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    I'd much prefer some more Screenwipe tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,779 ✭✭✭dmcg90


    It is true, its being made as I type.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Dunno if Gameswipe will work as well as Screenwipe, really hope I'm wrong.

    Has anyone a full list of the shows Charlie Brooker has done?
    I can't remember exactly what I've watched - some Screenwipes from 2007/2008 I think, but I was laughing my head off at "snaggletoothed coelacanth" the other night.

    Charlie brooker - Newswipe, screenwipe, gameswipe, arsewipe, the wire: tapped and you have been watching.

    All I can think of, and a "How to watch TV" thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 123 ✭✭deereidy


    Apparently he's supposed to be doing some radio show on Radio 4 called "So Wrong, It's Right" but I can't find it anywhere...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,397 ✭✭✭✭FreudianSlippers


    Love... LOVE this show! So hilarious and 99% of the stuff they say about the shows is spot on


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    The RTE Guide describe it as the uk version of 'the republic of telly'. Now I know 'you have been watching' has had it's low points but it doesn't deserve that.

    SERIES 2 EPISODE 1
    You Have Been Watching
    David Baddiel, Liza Tarbuck and Kevin Bridges join Charlie to shout and shake their fists at the world of television in all its diverse glory.

    MORE
    Next Episode: Thu 15 Apr, 10pm on Channel 4

    Enjoyed the last season, but this doesn't seem too promising


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,602 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Kevin Bridges is pretty funny to be honest!

    Baddiel and Tarbuck are not!

    Just seen on imdb that hid a tvgohome tv show, which was a precursor to screenburn.

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0300863/

    One of the funniest pages on the world wide web.

    This book is a collection of his columns in The Guardian.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dawn-Dumb-Dispatches-Idiotic-Frontline/dp/0571238416/ref=pd_bxgy_b_img_b

    Really funny, and only 4 quid in HMV.

    Ya I picked that book up last year. A right hoot in parts, definitely worth 4 quid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    This atrocity got another series? Oh Christ!


    The format doesn't suit Brooker at all. And what's with them trying to call it a "Quiz"?

    They shoehorn random questions in for no reason...

    It makes no sense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,522 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Liz Tarbuck is just. not. funny.


    I liked the Doctor WHo discussion, but the format is just....blah.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,514 ✭✭✭raindog.promo


    Stopped watching at the break.

    Bring back the wipes!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,522 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Oh god. This is so ****. Which is a shame, cos I really like Charlie Brooker. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,522 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Obvious canned laughter is obvious.
