I think I gave up when everyone else did - season 3, I think?
Worth going back, yeah? I was really only watching it for Troy & Abed and the Dean towards the end. The main guy and girl annoyed the hell outta me.

Season 3 of community did go downhill a bit, 4 got worse again.. But the original creator is back now and the first three eps of season 5 have been great. Also, Mike from breaking bad is in it now.

Hah! I'll have to check that now. Can't imagine Mike in a comedy role, really. At least not in a slapsticky type of way.

Also, does anyone know anything about Final Cut Pro in here? I'm teaching myself here as I go and it's not the easiest thing, or else I have it arseways. Essentially, what I need to know is about 'auto multitracking', or something to that end.

Apparently there's this thing where the audio auto syncs and you can just click which cam to go to. I'm pasting and clipping here like an eejit. I've only done the one video so far (see here) but it took an AGE to do it. Would love if anyone knew anything about this her!

Chris O'Dowd's Moone Boy is very enjoyable too, Season 2 should be starting soon hopefully

Hey Deadlie I'm an editor and I work with FCP if you download a piece of software called pluralise that'll sync it and turn it into a multi clip sequence for you. To do it manually I know I'd be better to show you.
I'm Galway based if that's any good to you

Im open to any questions. Remember if your turning them into mp4 Use mpeg stream clip its free and better than compressor that is with FCP. What FCP are you using? 7 or X. I use 7 and have avoided X

Charisteas · 17-01-2014 10:13PM

Not sure if there are any Only Fools and Horses fans around here, but Roger Lloyd Pack, who played Trigger, passed away a couple of days ago.

RIP.

I've got X. Got a deal on it in college - 90% subsidised kinda thing and a load of programs. I've only used Photoshop and InDesign really, but now I've time I'm looking at the others.

I wouldn't be able to help you with FCP X but look up creativecow.com that has good tutorials and tips

For people looking for a new comedy show i'd highly recommend The League which is on Netflix. Based on a group of guys and a lady in a fantasy football league and it is full of foul mouthed trash talking and devious plots to ruin each others teams. Its hilarious!

beakerjoe · 19-01-2014 02:20PM

Anyone watching the Chelsea United game at 4????

Im a United fan myself and I fear the worst.

brianregan09 · 19-01-2014 02:28PM

Yeah i think this is the game that gives united a wake up call i sense a 3 or 4-0 to chelsea hope not though i'd rather a draw

beakerjoe · 19-01-2014 02:32PM

United need a walk up call, if we draw or lose 1-0, the powers that be may not invest in the transfer window.

Deadlie · 19-01-2014 03:31PM

I'm happy enough. Spurs win and Adebayor looks like the striker we've needed for ages. After seeing him today, that AVB sacking just made a lot of sense. Defense was still very patchy at times. Still, best start for a Spurs manager in history (16 pts from 18)

It was 9/1 for Spurs/Chelsea/Everton treble this morning on PP. Was gonna throw a tenner at it, but I've a weird feeling United will pull out the stops for this one.

sky88 · 19-01-2014 03:45PM

United fan as well i also fear the worst maybe sneak a draw

Charisteas · 19-01-2014 04:07PM

As an Arsenal fan, it's only a matter of time before Man City overtake us, but hoping United can take something from Chelsea anyway. Without RVP and Rooney though, a win is some ask.

Adebayor has to be like Tyson Kidd, most underutilised in the last 6 months. What on earth was AVB thinking, a world class striker there and making him train with the reserves?

He was out of form when he was dropped initially, then his brother died and they were very close. Ade said he fell into a slump and felt it difficult to get motivated again. He was asking for chances to play to prove himself and AVB still didn't want to play him.

Not surprising then that he bounced back. He has to prove himself to all the critics and he's constantly living to do his brother proud, he says.

Kankan14 · 19-01-2014 04:37PM

Fairly happy with the start united have made except for Jones marking of Etoo for the goal.

Awesome second half display by Munster too

Lord TSC · 19-01-2014 04:38PM

As a United fan, I'm contemplating finding a corner to curl up in and cry.

At least Januzaj looks good....

Still don't get not starting Fletcher either.

Lord TSC · 19-01-2014 04:43PM

Jones, typically, does a good job man marking the big threats in midfield.

I agree in theory but they r three pronged behind Etoo so let Fletch Carrick and Jones play.

Feck 2-0

Pleased to announce that people weren't lying when they said The Shield is really good. Up to the fifth season now. I've had big spoiler thrown in my direction though by some absolute scumbag. It's one of those situations where it hasn't happened yet, doesn't look like happening for a while, but could be the big finale that everybody says is the best finale ever.

If I tell you how I got spoiled it would probably re-affirm what you were told. So spoiler tag

it was written about the Wrestling Observer

Diabhal Beag · 20-01-2014 05:42PM

I'm going to read that in about 3 weeks.

Lord TSC · 20-01-2014 08:52PM

So the department of education paid my brother for a day he didn't work. €120 quid, minus €40 in tax. So about €80 into his bank.

Now they are on at him to pay it back, which he obviously has no problem with. But on top of paying back €120 (despite not having the tax money), they want him to pay €50 in weird fees as well

They want €170 back. Meaning they're trying to charge him for not working.

Our government, ladies and gentlemen.

jaykhunter · 20-01-2014 09:42PM

Please send that to a newspaper TSC!

Diabhal Beag · 22-01-2014 01:20AM

Thank feck that spoiler was the finale to season 5 of The Shield.
