Television.

As someone whose living is TV, I thought I'd add the programmes I'll be checking out this weekend to the blog.

Thursday

Scrubs 9pm E4
This new series hasn't quite been up to the high standard of previous seasons, but still good.

Without A Trace 9pm More4
Consistently good missing persons drama.

Time Trumpet 10pm BBC2
A few laughs in this new satire last week so will check it out again this week.

Charlie Brooker's Time Trumpet 10.30pm BBC4
Funniest programme on TV right now, despite the fact that it's depressing and cynical - the Guardian columnist talks about how shit TV is basically.

Friday

Law of the Playground 9.30pm Channel 4
Essentially a talking heads show about schooldays but funny.

WWE Smackdown 10pm Sky Sports 3
Sad maybe, but I like it. Check out Ulsterman Fit Finlay and Blackpoolian William Regal beating the shit out of some Yank posers.

Saturday

Stoke v Birmingham 12.30pm Sky Sports 2
Might check this out for the Arsenal youngsters to watch them save the Brummies.

Mr and Mrs Smith 8pm Sky Movies 2
Never seen it so may give it a watch.

The Story of Light Entertainment 9.25pm BBC2
The first 2 episodes are still sitting on my digibox waiting to be watched but looks interesting.

Midnight Run12.15am ITV1
Classic buddy movie with Robert De Niro.

Sunday

Palace v Leeds 12pm Sky Sports 1
Maybe if I can be bothered.

Chelsea v Liverpool 3pm Sky Sports 1
Community Shield, worth a look.

ECW 10pm Sky Sports 3
Kurt Angle vs Sabu.

Dawn French's Girls Who Do Comedy 10.15pm BBC1
See if she can find any funny ones.

Monday

Some Thoughts By Karl Pilkington 7.55pm Channel 4
Gervais' genius radio producer gets 5 minutes a day after the Channel 4 news.

WWE Raw Live 2am Sky Sports 3
Hulk Hogan is on! Maybe with his kind of attractive daughter!


I'll never watch all that. It'll just sit on the box forever.
