Amy Childs Gets The Hump With Her Ex Castmates Slagging Off Her New Show

December 6th, 2011 By Matthew Laidlow

God bless national stereotypes, without them, some comedians wouldn't be able to fill the first twenty minutes of their stand-up gigs. The loveable Irish are regarded as potato munching drunks whilst the Welsh have a fixation with sheep for some reason.

It would be difficult for TV producers to get away with creating shows that mock entire nations. So they did the next best thing: Mock people from particular regions! Step right this way, Geordie Shore, Desperate Scousewives, Made In Chelsea and the originator, The Only Way Is Essex.

Inexplicably, TOWIE is three series old and still going strong. However, one of the stars of the shitgramme won’t be returning. Amy Childs is off to do her own thing ? which actually just means annoying people on another TV channel.

Geordie Shore Coming To Clutter Up Your TV Screen Soon Thanks To MTV

January 25th, 2011 By Matthew Laidlow

Everybody makes mistakes in life, from eating food that has just gone past its sell by date to fancying your mates mum that little bit too much. We are said to learn from the errors of our ways, but if you're MTV UK, it seems that you\’ll constantly fail to come up with original British programming and instead make piss poor copies of shows broadcast in America.

We've seen it all before with ?My Super Sweet 16?, ?Cribs? and ?Pimp My Ride? failing to make the mark. ITV even botched an attempt at cloning ?The Hills? in its dreary version of ?The Only Way Is Essex.?

If you're a fan of high quality programming, you might want to smash your TV in a fit of rage as MTV UK have decided to remake ?Jersey Shore? for the British market. The glamorous location chosen? Newcastle upon Tyne, giving the program the terrible title, ?Geordie Shore.?

TV Review: The Walking Dead

August 5th, 2012 By Si Sharp

Zombies, zombies, fucking zombies. We really should be sick of the sight of them. The most annoying thing about them is that regardless of how many zombie films come along people keep on making more on them.

On the flipside every so often someone comes up with a decent take on them, and most of the awful films don't make it as far as the cinema. They have a much better hit rate than vampires and with good reason.

Zombies may have no emotions or feelings but that's a hell of a lot more appealing than being angst-ridden self-obsessed immortal teenagers.

Danny Dyer Ironically Questions The Talents Of Vinnie Jones

October 18th, 2010 By Matthew Laidlow

?Knees up Mother Brown! Pass the dog and bone whilst I pop up the old apple and pears!? This is how a typical person from London talks and we have no clearer example of this than Grade A bell-end and all round East End geezah, Danny Dyer.

As a proper Cockerney hardnut, Danny is the American equivalent of Steven Seagal who somehow gets away with making terrible films again and again.

We all know him from top quality cinema flicks such as erm? and urm… where he points his finger at some muppets, swears repeatedly and dishes out the pain. Recently, Danny Dyer was most known for his horrific ghost written colums where he advocated violence to women. Apart from that, we thought he disappeared in to the hole he came from and died peacefully.

Sky to Send Danny Dyer To Gaza Strip For Television Event Of The Millennium

September 10th, 2010 By Mof Gimmers

Danny Dyer is brilliant. And by brilliant, we mean astonishing. And by astonishing, we mean crashingly woeful. It’s amazing really. Once he was just a rubbish wide-boy actor and then, mystifyingly, people started to hire him ‘As Himself’.

As such, we were greeted to a series of documentary shows that showed Dyer to be the vapid ‘ave a word wiv yoursewff tagnut that he is. More mind melting was his advice to cut a woman’s face in his dribblings in some dismal lad’s rag.

Sadly, it doesn’t end there as Sky have announced that they’ll be making a show that, quite possibly, defies all expectations of Dyer. Basically, it could be TV so bad that even the most cynical miserablist couldn’t even dream it up. Ladies and gentlemen, Sky 1 will be sending Danny Dyer to the Middle East in a show called ‘A Geezer In Gaza’.

New Channel 4 Comedy, Pete Versus Life, Clips!

August 5th, 2010 By Mof Gimmers

Pete Versus Life is a brand new comedy for Channel 4. Let’s be honest – lately, that hasn’t meant much as BBC Two and Four have been getting all the good stuff lately. Anyway, this new series, written by the writers of Star Stories (again, not a great sign) and made by the producers of Peep Show (that’s better) and the series starts on Friday, 6 Aug at 10pm. And we have clips.

Pete Griffiths, played by some chap called Rafe Spall, is a struggling young sports journo and, although he’s well meaning, he often lacks the emotional maturity required to deal with life?s more intricate problems. Sounds like a typical writer to us.

Pete wishes that life had clearly defined rules, like sport. But life isn't like sport, as Pete is only beginning to realise.
