original Skins cast leaves

Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago on 14 April 2008 05:23 (A review of Skins)

Series 1 was great Series 2 was pretty good i am annoyed that all the cast from these to Series 2 of Skins are leaving and been replaced for a new cast in Series 3.

The last one on Series 2 really gave a good scene which was true Tony and Sid style when they steal a coffin which was there friend. That scene was funny and great.

It is a shame to see the cast go because most of them were great and i for one am not looking forward to seeing a new cast to me Skins should end because i don't think you will find a better cast then the original.

I have to say though with the end of the cast Sid was my favorite his character was entertaining and is the most realistic of them all. 2nd favorite would be Tony he was so funny in Series 1 but never showed much in Series 2 only in the final episode

TNA = Boring

Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago on 13 April 2008 11:16 (A review of "TNA Impact! Wrestling")

TNA for me is the worst wrestling show i have seen no story line build ups. This really comes up as a big rip off of WCW the only thing is it is no where as good. TNA hire most WWE wrestlers which have failed or left due to reasons. I can't really say a good thing about TNA because the whole thing just gets boring along with a bunch of wrestlers which are pathetic and i don't mean Kurt Angle he is the only one on the show with real class.

Great from the start worse at the end

Posted : 1 year, 8 months ago on 29 March 2008 07:26 (A review of "Bad Girls")

Bad Girls was a prison drama the show was great during it's first run with people like Shall Dockley played by Debra Stevenson who gave excitement to the show. Yvonne Akins played by Linda Henry as these left the show it started turning out as a comedy. There was no realism in the show as near the end you had ghosts appearing which was silly. With people on the show like Amanda Barrie and the other girl with her you know your going to get a crap show and yes we did.

The first lot of the series would get a 9/10 because it was real and not over the top. Adding with classic acting from Debra Stevenson who was the one who made you watch this show.

The end of the series would get from me 2/10 for it's complete loss of ideas and with bad storylines.

Great Show

Posted : 1 year, 8 months ago on 17 March 2008 11:10 (A review of Spaced)

Spaced is a great show starting Simon Pegg as Tim and Jessica Stevenson now Jessica Hynes who plays daisy these two both write the show. Well Tim and Daisy both meet in cafe Daisy looking for a flat mate every day their friendship is getting better. Daisy then finds a flat but the advert says it's for couples so Daisy and Tim pretend to be a couple so they can get the flat. Thats the the beginning of the series.

We meet other people Marsha Klein who is played by Julia Deakin she is the landlady of the house and she always seems drunk. Brian Topp who is played by Mark Heap lives on the bottom floor a bit of a weird guy who makes art and has something going on with Marsha. Mike Watt played by Nick Frost is Tim's best friend and is an Army guy who is a funny character. Then there is Twist Morgan played by Katy Carmichae who is daisy's best friend.
Not forgetting Colin who is Daisy's pet dog the dog's real name is Ada but also seen on Spaced as Aida.
The show is directed from the man who brought you Hot Fuzz and Shaun of The Dead Edgar Write

This show is great which any someone who has Virgin Media TV can watch it for free anytime Spaced series 1 and 2 on the Virgin on demand part of 4OD.

The Royle Family this is a classic tv show which is just like what happens at home. This is based in the front room where you will see the whole Royle family and David. You will see other people in the show such as friends this is one to be watched which is highly enjoyable. I like this show that much i even bought the DVD

Miss It not worth watching

Posted : 1 year, 9 months ago on 2 March 2008 06:51 (A review of Gavin & Stacey)

This is one of the worst programs that i have seen it was boring and unfunny. The cast look like they try so hard to even make it funny. I think its terrible how you pay for a TV license from a terrible show from the BBC it sucks. I find it just as bad as The Office. The show is to over hyped and most of the people who find it funny i am guessing they don't even know humor AVOID this and watch a real show Skins.

Good for adults not for children

Posted : 1 year, 9 months ago on 20 February 2008 06:10 (A review of "Happy Tree Friends")

Happy Tree Friends is a pretty good show just never let children watch it as the amount of cartoon violence that happens of the different ways these little animals die is funny from time to time.

Great show

Posted : 1 year, 10 months ago on 2 February 2008 01:58 (A review of Skins)

Skins is a great show very funny and entertaining i cannot wait for series 2 Sid is just the best in it. I just cannot wait to watch series 2 to see what happens to Tony. Skins shows how great UK television is and if you ask me Channel 4 produce better shows then Five, BBC and ITV
