Brand new series just started...
For those who don't know what it is, think of it as a more mature, funnier, more offensive version of Harry Hills TV Burp...
Someone else's review off IMDB, pretty much sums it up...
| Quote: | | Brooker bitingly analyses TV and (very occasionally) doles out praise. But mainly the fun comes from when he gets on obscure or dire programming and subjects it to his sarcasm. That's where the fun begins. He is the most sarcastic person that I've yet to see on television. |

Nah, been going on for years. Sort of like an adaptation of his Guardian articles.
The reviews of the years are definately well worth a watch. _________________

| He sometimes comes across as a bit of a preacher. It might be the way he speaks - it gets a little annoying. I always thought that tune he uses for the intro was Spiritualized, turns out its Grandaddy. |

I think everyone finds the way he speaks annoying. I'm almost sure that's the way it's supposed to come across... _________________
