Spotless

Posted by: loyster on: September 27, 2009

Don’t mind the title, it just came into my head and I’m too lazy and tired to think of anything amusing so that will just have to do
Been doing a lot of random reading (I’m between 3 books at the moment – Stephen King, Harper Lee And Charles Dickens – but Harper Lee [...]

Skins

Posted by: loyster on: September 27, 2009

I nearly gave Skins a miss cause I was thrown off by the first episode where the characters main mission was to get one of their friend’s de-flowered. And in that 43-odd minutes episode, there was some nudity, drugs, heavy partying and an almost overdose. I kid you not.

Then the film goes back to the tale of 5 young Americans who are on their way [...]

Chuck

Move over, 007 – there’s another super spy in town. Meet Agent Charles Carmichael

Seriously, Chuck has to be one of the funniest, most creative tv shows to be created in recent years. Season 2 is long gone and they haven’t even started shooting Season 3 yet but it’s something that I’m eagerly anticipating.
