Question for Spaced fans....

**bassman** · 02-Nov-2006

I'm with you, MZ. It's not a favorite, but it's not that bad, either. The hot women don't hurt it very much.

I'm still waiting to see "Spaced"

i've had to sit through many diplomatic viewings of friends due to girlfriend, and i'm also ashamed to admit it's alright, despite it's middle of the roadness and the fact that you would kill the smug git characters if you knew them(also, how the hell does that bunch of bums afford that HUGE manhattan apartment?!).

but then, dudes who were beaten and raped every day in japanese POW camps began to miss the beatings when they were released, so it's amazing what the body & brain can get used to...

frasier wins the 90s US sitcom war for me.

Have any of you guys seen "black books"? it's sort of a sister show to spaced with bill bailey, tamsin grieg and dylan moran. it's very good, has a lot of the same production team as spaced and was written by the dudes who did father ted (i think).

Wow.. Just.... wow...

You dont follow Coronation Street do you?

Actually My nice warm blanet is pretty much any of the Michael Palin travelogues. I can pretty much watch them whenever, its like a bowl of chicken soup, or a super hot curry when you have a head cold.

Spaced is really quite good, the two (Simon and Nick) are just great together, they really are a good team. DANGER 50000 zombies! being one of the funnier things I have ever seen. The only comparable humor twosome in a britcom I can think of is Craig Charles and Chris Barrie.

hey don't diss the corrie, it's the most camp, lurid, OTT soap there is, i love it! (i'll get me cloak).

know what you mean about the frost/pegg combo, but i always liked rick mayall and ade edmondson from the young ones/bottom as well.

My DVD shelves hold a wide variety of films. You can skip from Saw to Singin' in the Rain to Sin City to Silk Stockings

. I have many tastes, dear chum.

lol ... guess what's literally just started - FRIENDS DOUBLE BILL ON E4!!!

Nice, Monica and Chandler sneaking around behind Joey's back...

To whoever said about Palin (too lazy to backtrack through the posts, lol), I've got a similar thing - Long Way Round - I absolutely love it, got it on special edition 3 disc DVD as well. It's just so heart-warming and interesting and you learn quite a lot about other cultures. It's a great series, if anybody hasn't seen it - DAMNIT, GO WATCH IT!

Sorry MZ, you have went a couple notches down on my 'cool mofo' list for liking friends. "Oh my God!!!!" AAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!! I could admit I have genital herpes and still come off better than you right now.

Anyway, came here because I'm watching Spaced, thanks to Andreno for bringing it up and making me d/l it.

I remember it when it was first shown on tv, but I only caught a few episodes and was too busy getting wasted or something to bother with it.

I was going to post when I watched both series. but I have to post now as I'm half way through series 2 episode 6 Dissolution. I think I collapsed a lung when the Prisoner cell block H theme tune came on.

Right, thats out the way, back to wtching Spaced.

P.S: MZ, Ghey!

one of my favorite lines in the entire series is: "You've got paint on you."
I swear to you.... I have never laughed so hard while watching a TV series (Trailer Park Boys not included - Barfed a lung over those freaks!)....Spaced, tho.....Pure Comedic Genius!!!!
If American comedy hit the head like that,..........

**Danny** · 05-Nov-2006

yeah if spaced s the best comedy of the last few years trailer park boys runs a close second

**MinionZombie** · 05-Nov-2006

pfft, like I care.

Like I said, I'm a guy of many tastes and opinions, besides, everytime I watch Friends and Jennifer Aniston is on screen I'm more than distracted from the show over all.

Everybody's got a guilty pleasure, what's yours?
