I find it very hard to laugh at Iannucci's stuff sometimes. It's just seems to be weird for weird's sake. No real point to make. Doesn't mean i don't like it though.
I can't remember if it was Time Trumpet or not, but where is that sketch where a fairly innocuous summary of Nicky Campbell's life is read out in an evil voice, accompanied by some rather demonic images? I can't find it anywhere and I'm pretty sure it was Iannucci. Any help?
I cannot thank you enough sir; I'm not sure why I thought it was Iannucci, though it is sort of his style. Thank you again for taking the time to provide a link :)
Time Trumpet is for the sort of guys whose humour is more intelligent than the likes who think Family Guy is the funniest thing on tv at the moment. I admit - it's funny a lot of the time, but it's not outstanding.
More money spent on comnedies Tine Trumpet and less money spent on utter shite like 'Muslim Driving School' or 'Britain's Best Young Butcher'.
Anyone remember Alan Partrididge's proposals for new tv shows? Monkey Tennis anyone?
This isnt a conspiracy theory, it's just the natural course sadly.
Rich will get themselves out of shit, shave off hangers on if resources get low, and generally, theyll be the ones left after every disaster.
A few clever or lucky poor sods will be around though.
War's one way of culling the poor masses.
Funny how were in a war right now, and apparently, at a time of rising unemployment and poverty, we're loosing more soldiers than ever before.. weird that.
@benofclifton what i want to know is why do cunts like me CONTINUE to read the comments below youtube videos even though i know that some of them will annoy me? (not yours, yours made me laugh!)
sorry, think i must have put the comment in the wrong box....on the wrong page too...that was supposed to be for someone on a ufo page...too many tabs open, too many beers drunk...
I thought the the Clare Short bit was the most hilarious thing in ages. "If he didn't have a hat on, you'd want to buy him one and shit in it." Total comedy overload.
its a satire on reminiscent, pop culture programs which put z-list celebrities on a pedestal, when what they are actually saying is often void of any kind of real significance. Brass eye was a satire on topical news sensationalism, which incidentally was arguably a follow on from The Day Today, which, like time trumpet had Iannucci heavily involved in the production. So basically...what the other guy said...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I see we've all identified Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps as bad comedy; why you sagacious shrews.I'm not normally derisive on Youtube, but did it ever occur to those mocking the 'feckless idiots' who watch said shows, that their words may be slightly hypocritical. Time Trumpet to me is incomparable to Armando Iannucci's other works. Sure there's vestigial signs of potential, but I wouldn't extol this so highly when there are better shows to watch on Youtube; The Day Today an example.
well done for making yourself feel clever by a profligate display of eloquence. there really is no need to be like this on youtube is there? youre not octave mirbeau, youre not brian sewell, so just stop it. are you wanting to make yourself feel bigger than the normal youtube "proles" eh? pertaining to some sort of feeling of superiority? your ability to wank lyrical im sure has impressed everyone here, but please, leave it out, time trumpet is epic, just like day today, thick of it and brasseye
haha why thankya, not sure if i actually coined it or whether i saw it somewhere else and then subconsciously made the decision to try and take credit. itll be alright on the night.
its a mystery to us all. probably because its meets the requirements of bbc threes remit, i.e cheap, unfunny and fucking patronising to the 16-30 age bracket!
@nbbristol Because, as unbelievable a it might be to you and me and as sad an indication of the nations current sense of humour... that Packet of Crisps and some drinks or whatever is actually very popular.
Can you believe that?! People actually enjoy watching that show!! They actually look forward to it! Discuss it with their mates! Repeat the catch phrases and maybe even record it!!
@nbbristol yo im a yank and agree with you 100% can you reply and tell me some more great uk shows please thanks and sorry 4 the whole revolutionary war the colonies say what up i know about peepshow the it crowd mitchell and webb anything matt berry does but i need more what about wire inthe blood good huh please reply thanks MATE
@nbbristol Two Pints of Lager and Packet of Crisps is actually making people less intelligent. If it gets another series, within 3 months people will revert to living like chimpanzees and sucking bananas out of each other's arseholes. Shame on the BBC for allowing shit like that, and my new favourite comedy for morons 'Comin of Age' to exist on any level. For every minute Coming of Age is shown, a dildo covered in chilli sauce should be inserted one centimetre into the commissioner's urethra.
