Cortese's Corner - The Off-Topic Chat Thread

I did some target shooting when I was over in America. Mainly shooting plastic cans full of water. I was terrible, but it was fun, so that would be my main intention for owning a gun.

 

Not me. Mine are being rationed as I have so few left.

 

@antonydjames: PS4 owners - Sony have messed up. Buy this add-on pack for 85p and you get the full game of Killzone Shadow Fall: https://t.co/pkMWCTjUMP

 

Not convinced it's worth 85p.

 

It cant be worth it. It's for a Killzone game.

 

What's wrong with Killzone?

Nah, they clearly have made the decision for a reason, and it was not a good channel. I can watch Family Guy/American dad on FX if I ever fancy taking a one-in-five chance that it'll be a funny episode, and if I want to watch Russell Howard's Good News I can just cut out the middle man and sort YouTube by all time most viewed.

People think they can petition anything nowadays.

 

Despite what Joe says, I believe it is a wrong decision, and just as a similar petition to save Radio 6 Music a few years ago worked, so will this one. On your side PL.

 

Then you also get the benefit of not having that annoying man cracking **** jokes.

**** BBC3.

I wanted to reply to this sooner but I have to check my facebook/ twitter/ emails/ update my blog every 30 seconds.

If the BBC have to make cuts, which is what they say, then what would you propose they cut first? My vote would definitely be for BBC3.

Matt Lucas and Jack Whitehall say it's going to be detrimental for new comedy, but I'm pretty sure those two don't know what comedy is. This is what happens when British comedies are so consistently ****. They get binned.

 

I agree with Joe that most stuff on BBC 3 is ****e. It's also not as though BBC 3 is being totally shut down either. It won't be a TV channel any more but it will still be online, and its target audience is the most likely demographic to access programmes via the internet.

 

You don't need a whole channel for terrible comedies and Dr Who repeats.

 

BBC4 is not needed either.

 

Watch Dogs out 24th May.

 

Uncle is pretty funny. Wasn't Inbetweeners a BBC3 show? That's two good shows.

Also, what Puck said makes a lot of sense.

 

They should move Family Guy etc to BBC2, cut some of the crap on that as well.

 

Hardly watch BBC3, apart from Russell Howard and Bad Education. Family Guy has been **** for a few seasons.

Inbetweeners was E4.

Time to close this thread and start a new Corner.

Cheers.
