TV Preview: Misfits, E4
A new E4 series called Misfits you say? About a group of young delinquents doing community service? We've not been this put off a new TV series since the Bad Girls pilot. In fact, the likelihood of a good series coming from E4 is akin to that of finding a hen's tooth, or
Tess Daly's soul.
Imagine the disquiet and shock which consumed us when we saw the first episode of this teen-insert genre here and discovered it's actually quite good. Maybe Tess Daly has a soul after all.*
Skins Film Announced, A New Low Reached In Cinema
Omg! Lolz!!1!!1! If you’re a 12-year-old with a deluded view on what teenage life is like, that will probably be your reaction. However if, like us, you live in the real world, you’ll no doubt be banging your head against the nearest blunt object.
Skins can only be described as the Daily Mail’s worst nightmare, since the show takes us into the supposed world of a teenager’s life. It wouldn’t make for good viewing if the characters all had study groups, helped the elderly and grew their own organic vegetables. Instead, it’s filled with boozing, shagging, crying and drug taking. Usually confined to E4, it might now bother you on the big screen.
MySpace Trawl – Fat Segal
This week, we’re going to recommend someone whose music you may hear each week, but will have been blissfully unaware of who it is. If you’re a Skins fan, then get ready to literally jump around the house like you’ve just had six tins of Red Bull. We’ve managed to pester the show's musical composer
Fat Segal and ask him some random questions which probably just wasted his day.
TV Preview: Skins Series 3
OMG! Skins is back! E4’s modern-day take on one side of 'yoof culture' returns to make everyone feel like they have crap parties, old and extremely unfashionable. After establishing itself as one of E4's more successful shows which isn't Friends or Big Brother, the programme has taken a strange and swift change of direction. Instead of building on the foundations of the second series, the producers have instead decided to tell the original cast to bugger off as they've hired some fresh meat.
Danny Dyer Says Orlando Bloom Can’t Act, Is A Hypocrite
Dire Danny Dyer has told the ever wonderful Zoo magazine that Orlando Bloom is a “cunt†who “can’t act†. The famous idiom pot calling the kettle black springs to mind here. Although it’s more a case of the pot calling the kettle a cunt for being a pot.
It’s like
Boris Johnson telling
David Cameron he has a silly voice and stupid hair and feeling that his party's views are "a little bit too conservative" for his liking.
Everyone From Skins Gets The Sack
Folks, we’ve got some good news, some bad news and some horrible news. Which do you want first? Let’s start with the good news, shall we: The entire cast of dire TV twaddle Skins are to be made redundant! Yeah! No more undeveloped twatty stereotypes with better hair than you!
That would be so sweet if it weren't for the bad news.
The twatty stereotypical undeveloped characters are to be replaced by twattier further stereotyped undeveloped characters with even better hair. Fuck. The good news isn’t quite so good anymore, is it? Pretend you haven’t read this bit. Delete it from your brains. It hasn’t happened.
