I hate diverting my attention from the Nazi's, but what RU watching that is funny?

[Eliot Rosewater]

TV or whatever.

Netflix, Hulu, etc.

I fall asleep to shows like "Count Arthur Strong" (BBC) or "Doc Martin (BBC) or "The Big Bang Theory" or "Atlanta" or

Pamela Adlon


I am looking forward to Season 5 "Arrested Development" next week.

While not a fan of the original, a shout out to the redo on Netflix of "One Day At A Time" very timely stuff

[Floyd R. Turbo]

1. Just watched Fawlty Towers for the umpteenth time.

Just queued up “Whites” on Prime!

[Eliot Rosewater]

2. You will like "Whites" and for some stupid reason it only got one "series" as they call it.

The tall guy (Darren Boyd) in "Whites" also did "Spy"


https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2086606/

I know it is available somewhere, Prime or BritBox maybe.

Ever watch "Doc Martin?"

Fawlty, OF COURSE great taste

[Floyd R. Turbo]

10. Prime.

Watched all of the Doc M. episodes I could find.

[Eliot Rosewater]

11. Seasons 7 and 8 are on ACORN which you can purchase for $5 a month on Amazon

and you only need it for one month.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

12. Cool!

[csziggy]

18. Acorn TV also has the Doc Martin "prequel" movies

Which are not really Doc Martin but have the same actor as a (different) doctor visiting the real village where the Doc Martin series is set.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

19. Thanks!

[csziggy]

20. Oh - they are also scheduled to have Season 9 when it comes out later this year!

[Va Lefty]

3. Last night I watched some old SCTV DVDs

Johnny LaRue, Guy Caballero, Count Floyd. 35+ years later still laugh out loud funny!

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. Way back machine eh! LOL

[awesomerwb1]

5. I don't watch TV at all

unless it's the odd baseball/soccer/football game etc that I'd rather watch on the TV instead of the computer.

(At night I'll watch MSNBC but my mood has been darkening lately seeing how this farce in dark times is being more and more completely and utterly dominated by Dump, and the other side -ahem- just doesn't push back enough imo).

Arrested Development Season 5??? That is awesome. You've made my day with that news.

I'm finishing the last season of The Black List online....

On Netflix I have been watching Santa Clarita Diet - the dialogue I find hilarious.

[Eliot Rosewater]

6. Santa Clarita Diet, my fave character and actor is the young boy, the neighbor.

He is a good actor.

Very good.

[awesomerwb1]

7. Yes! He's very good,

My fave is the dad, Joel Hammond "Relator"

[Eliot Rosewater]

8. Aww, you see I think this guy would have been WAY better

https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0876138/?ref_=nv_sr_1 (Alan Tudyk)

he has a show on prime called "Con Man" and is of course K-2SO or whatever that name is on Star Wars.

Very very funny guy. Most know him from "Firefly"

[Fla Dem]

9. Also recommend Santa Clarita Diet.

Over the top, but thoroughly enjoyable cast and story line. 2 seasons now on Netflix.

[OriginalGeek]

13. If you aren't watching Life In Pieces

you're wasting your TV.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4384086/


And yes to Pamela Adlon. There is nothing not terrific about her.

[Eliot Rosewater]

14. Yeah, I know it and have it on my DVR, but something about

a few of the actors/characters that is not doing it for me.

But I will watch again.

[Aristus]

15. I nearly died laughing.

I saw a .gif recently that showed a brief clip of a news reporter on the street, commenting on some recent anti-LGBT legislation.

Two guys behind the reporter started making out like bandits for the camera. Just no holds-barred, passionate, violent snogging. They moved toward the camera, and one of them lifted up his tee shirt and his partner started sucking his nipples. At that point I was laughing silently, holding my sides, and praying I wouldn't lose consciousness from lack of air from laughing so hard.

[Eliot Rosewater]

16. OMG I Want that video!

[Aristus]

17. If anyone is able to find it somewhere and post it here,

just be warned: I wasn't kidding. I was laughing so hard I was a little dizzy and lightheaded. I really did think I was going to pass out from laughter. So view it at your own risk.

21. I've been watching "3rd Rock from the Sun" on the Roku Channel

And "Classic Doctor Who" on Britbox - almost finished with the first season.

Also been falling asleep to "Tales of Nature" on CuriosityStream Channel. That is a series of shows about the countryside (and some in cities) in France - a part of the world I have never seen nature shows about before.

[Eliot Rosewater]

23. BritBox has some good BBC sitcoms.

REV

and

The Job Lot

are must sees.

[DFW]

22. If at all, whatever is on ARD or ZDF tonight.

By the way "Nazi" is just an abbreviation of the German word for "national," which is spelled the same, but pronounced "Nah-tsee-oh-nahl." The party was the National Socialist German Workers Party. The "Nationalsozialisten (Nah-tsee-oh-nahl-zo-tsee-ah-list-en)," or "National Socialists," were shortened to NAH-tsee in German (sort of the "Na-shi" part of "National" in English). The plural is, therefore, "Nazis" in German and English, although using an apostrophe is correct when writing in Republicanese--not your intention, I presume?
