Big 3 Posted Sat Dec 30 01:18:56 GMT 2000 by Suiii

OK, the forum's a bit dead, so this is a topic with a simple premise. OK, 3 questions:

1) Which famous person is guaranteed to make you watch absolutely any programme they appear on, no matter how shite.

2) Which programme that you have taped do you spend the most time watching?

3) Which programme do you wish you had discovered sooner?

Oh, better put my answers, get the ball rolling.

1) Probably Billy Connolly, he's just very funny.

2)The Simpsons, without a shadow of a doubt.

3) The League of Gentlemen. OK, so I only originally missed the first 2 episodes of the first series, and I caught up eventually, but I wish I'd seen it from the beginning!

1) Currently, Kevin Eldon. Or Chris Langham. Or Janeane Garofalo (but then, that's for aesthetic reasons as well...)
2) Radio: On The Hour or People Like Us. TV: Fist Of Fun or Brass Eye.
3) Seinfeld (only discovered it in the third season, and only started taping it religiously in the fifth season).

Chris Morris, although he's yet to appear in anything shite. Liza Tarbuck, for completely different reasons, who has yet to appear in anything good.

>2) Which programme that you have taped do you spend the most time watching?

Fist Of Fun.

>3) Which programme do you wish you had discovered sooner?

Does such a programme exist?

2)The Big Booth, possibly Futurama.
3)ISIHAC definitely, Monday evenings will never be the same, until it finishes of course...

Vic Reeves/Bob Mortimer. And they've been on quite a bit of shite between them, but there's always the chance that one of them will come out with something brilliant. Not happened for a while, though.

>2) Which programme that you have taped do you spend the most time watching?

The Simpsons, definitely. Though as far as prerecorded tapes go, it's The Day Today.

>3) Which programme do you wish you had discovered sooner?

Radio: Any Lee And Herring stuff, On The Hour (though I was too young to hear it at the time). TV: People Like Us

1: Adam & Joe - not really sure if this counts since I only tune in for about 5 minutes to laugh in their prepubescent faces. etc.
2: Fist / Simpsons
3: Truthfully honestly? The Divine Comedy.

err, the Simposns, Futurama and any of the Star Trek series (except TOS).
*ducks sudden hail of geek abuse*

Red Dwarf - only started watching it properly in series 4 or 5. I remember seeing it on while my dad and brother watched it but I wasn't interested till I'd seen a few by chance.
