Read a little review of this in FHM last night. Looks the dogs bollocks.

Boardwalk Empire. From what i can gather, it's an 11 parter by Scorsese.

I actually don't watch that much telly tbh. I try and always have a good series on the go though. Before Christmas managed to finish The Wire. Then The Sopranos, and then my Auntie (+plus a positive review from Charlie Brooker) turned me onto Mad Men. Managed to finish the first three series of that just before series four started on the tellybox.

And after finishing that i got a friend to lend me Curb. Tend to rely on other people to turn me on to good stuff.

Quite looking forward to "An idiot Abroad" tonight with Karl Pilkington being sent to see the world's great wonders and apply his own pretty parochial philosophy to them. For instance, on seeing the Great Wall of China, visible for miles, winding its way over hills and through valleys, he says "Yeah, not bad, but the M6 does that, doesn't it?"

I thought "This is England '86" was rather good this week.

I thought the first episode was a bit slow but I think it is a grower. Second episode was really good.

I have been listening to the second series of the Ricky Gervais show on my iPhone in bed the last couple of nights. I was actually in pain last night laughing at it. The man is a genius. Favourite bit so far being when he was asked, if he could spend some time with hid doppelganger, who had the same thoughts and everything, as he does, what would he do?

Karl replied - "how would i know which one is me?". I nearly pissed myself.

Other favourites of his i have seen are from the extras for the Gervais stand up DVD "Politics". Karl states that you'll never see an old man eating a twix, and you'll never see a middle aged Chinese person. And watching Gervais explain to him how if you give an infinite amount of monkeys an infinite amount of typewriters for eternity, they would eventually type the complete works of Shakespeare is superb.

So i am too looking forward to this, and did not realise itw as tonight.

Gotta love a man who criticises Noah for being too efficient:
"If anythin', like I said, he didn't do us a favour, he saved too much. You can't move out there for stuff" (Referring to Noah saving every animal)
