New Mighty Boosh

[KuffDam]

Season 3 announced on BBC website. Doesn't say when it is on though.

I hope it's good. Always 50/50 with a season 3 eh...

[Loz]

surprised it got a third series

usually the BBC don't bother commissioning a 3rd series of any comedy show unless it's got mass market appeal like 2 Pints of Lager or My Family.

[penciLneck]

Shitey crowd got series 3 too, and the Pimp (peep) show is coming back.

[Martin23]

unless it's got mass market appeal like 2 Pints of Lager or My Family.

Mass appeal? Who the fuck watches BBC3 and 2 Pints, surely a paradox?

[love_tempo]

this will be great :)

stupid bbc fucks though only give them a try AFTER they've had massive success on their own with the live comedy show and DVDs.

[kams]

i've never seen one second of the mighty boosh... I feel like i'm behind somewhat

[grobelaar]

I've no idea how the BBC judges the quality and popularity of it's comedy shows. Like they're always introducing Catherine Tate as 'award winning' comedy.

What fucking award is that - BBC fucking employee of the month.

Anyway bring on the Boosh, I hope it's good, been a bit of gap between the last series, so hopefully Barratt, Fielding etc have turned up some good stuff.

[V Knid esq]

Rumour was that one of them was doing so much gak he got writers block hence the gap between series....

[Loz]

no guess which one that would be...

[Tec]

he's always lording it round hackney way...quite a spectacle.

[V Knid esq]

How much cocaine would it take before you'd shag Courtney Love anyway?

[Loz]

don't let Emma hear you diss Courtney Love

Thought it was Steve Coogan who was getting jiggy with Courtney - or does she have a thing for British comedians.

Whose next?

[Yer_Maw]

mr bean

[KuffDam]

Probably a necrotic threesome with Bob Monkhouse and Ronnie Barker.

[joe pinapples]

Whats next for Courtney O'Cobain?


Roy Chubby Brown obvs.

[KuffDam]

Chubby dropping off the kids on her bony smackheeeid chest.

After seeing the embarrassing Mighty Boosh student catchphrasetastic live show last year... I'm hoping they haven't gone shite.

[Yer_Maw]

its a bit crap though really isnt it? good visuals but not much else.

[joe pinapples]

i've watched it once or twice and it seemed like it had some good laugh out loud moments, not enough ideas for a series though.

imagine shagging Sir Bobby Gandalf's daughter though, thats a bit sad.

Aren't Fielding and Russell Brand essentially the same person/persona as well?

[May Kasahara]

Aren't Fielding and Russell Brand essentially the same person/persona as well?

Nah, Fielding's much less hectic than Brand. I can imagine having a pint and a laugh with Fielding without wanting to punch either him or myself in the head.

[Orang Utan]

How much cocaine would it take before you'd shag Courtney Love anyway?


I saw her in a dreadful 80s comedy about pop video production on BBC1 on Monday night - I thought it'd be alright cos it had John Cusack and Tim Robbins in it - she played a whore sitting on a rich man's back and slapping him. It was a bit of a double take moment but I rewinded and paused and it was definitely her. Weirdly Jello Biafa turns up at the end as an FBI Agent and has the last line of the movie - 'Look what happened to Jello Biafra'. It also had Fishbone in a bar covering Rawhide. No, I wasn't drinking

[May Kasahara]

Was that Tapeheads? I wish I'd watched it now.

[Orang Utan]

Yep!

[love_tempo]

its a bit crap though really isnt it? good visuals but not much else.

aye maybe it is crap now that I think about it :) this is what I like about no future, a lot of the threads go like this:

look at this, it's good
some peoples agree
someone says it's crap
t'other peoples agree
some peoples disagree with t'other peoples
change the subject to something random.

Isn't Undo the best thing ever invented?

[Loz]

I enjoyed it. Not sure if it was as good as the first and second series, but still good. The piss bit was hilarious.

Also the line "I'll literally come at you like a breeze block of pain"

[Tec]

Didn't rate that episode much, hope it gets better.

[V Knid esq]

Oh I didn't bother to watch it. I thought the trailer was a bit depressingly fomulaic, like "I'm coduruoy bloke" "Yeah I'm glitter bloke", and the Daft Punk pastiche was a bit half-assed.

[Orang Utan]

The new series is shit isn't it?
The Beeb have given them too much money and they've started believing in their own hype.

[Tec]

The 3rd episode was pretty funny i thought.

"Future Sailors..."

It ripped the arse right outta the Shoreditch shit band scene.

[Orang Utan]

I thought that was the worst so far to be honest - the thing about those things is they don't need parodying - they're ridiculous enough as it is

[grobelaar]

I thought that was the worst so far to be honest - the thing about those things is they don't need parodying - they're ridiculous enough as it is

They're ridiculous to us - what about all the pretentious fuckwits running around thinking they're some new wave of talent - nah I think Shoreditch is still ripe for ripping the shit out of - it needs it!

[Tec]

definitely.

[Orang Utan]

I guess so, it just seems so easy - all you have to is point and laugh - we don't need The Boosh to do it for us - are they doing it for the provincials then?

[Orang Utan]

Still, it failed to raise more than a few chuckles in our household and it is supposed to be a comedy

[WON'T DO IT]

i really enjoyed the boosh last night... that were some quality crimping n all

[Paddy]

i liked the crimping bit. i still don't find the boosh particularly hilarious though.

[Dask]

I thought that episode was hilarious.

Liked Simon Farnaby playing Howard Boom

[Orang Utan]

The crimping was the very thing which made me want to switch off - it's a just a rerun of their soup thing

[Dask]

The crimping was the very thing which made me want to switch off - it's a just a rerun of their soup thing

It's a recurring theme, it's been in it since the radio show.

I like it.

[Tec]

yeah me too..good to have something concurrent running through their material.

[KuffDam]

I thought the second episode was 'ok', I wouldn't really care if I don't catch any of the others though.. their time has definitely passed...

[Spandex]

3rd episode made us piss. Much better than the 1 and 2 i thought.

[Dask]

I think all 3 episodes so far are better than the ones I don't like from series 1 & 2.

[gen-eral]

The Beeb have given them too much money and they've started believing in their own hype.

i saw julian barratt in islington t'other day. He was wearing aviator sunglasses on one of the dullest rainy days of the year, and was walking with a right twatty swagger.

[thembuzz]

i like the mighty boosh, but i can never quite bring myself to love it because i want to stove noel fielding's grotesquely elongated face in

if i read one more boosh interview with the words "my mate johnny borrell" in it...

[Orang Utan]

Who the fuck is Johnny Borrell? I keep seeing his name everywhere

[love_tempo]

Who the fuck is Johnny Bovrill? I keep seeing his name everywhere

this cow her'

[thembuzz]

he's the lead singer from razorshite

do you see what i did there?

[Laszlo]

The bbc have given them progressively less money for each series.
I think what makes it still good to me, is that I've never really relied on it as a comedy, more a silly story that spills up some nice design and childlike fantasy.... realised the other day that they don't rely on sex, drugs, nastyness or swearing (that much) to support it...which is quite rare for anyone on tele.

Fair play to em.

[love_tempo]

can't imagine that the new series is all bad really considering the last two. I'm going to watch the first 2 episodes tonight.

btw, watched the first episode of John from Cincinatti last night. wtf? Is it worth continuing watching or is it just wilfully odd?

[thembuzz]

you have to give them credit for trying, at least. tv comedy is sadly lacking in imagination at the moment. it's all comedie vérité these days

do you see what i did there?

Oooh get you with your fancy provincial 'live and let live' ways.
Where's your London hate-drive gone you hippy?

I don't reckon, bit of a stupid show really.

[KuffDam]

okok. I saw episode 3 last night and it was good.. better than episode 2, which was better than episode 1...

[Yer_Maw]

why are you all giving it a chance. If this was anything else it would be denounced as shite. Are they getting an easy ride becasue they are so cool?

[KuffDam]

You're young Yer_Maw, you're free. Don't let us hold you back.

[Yer_Maw]

Emperors new clothes, 'oh look at me im in a band', shite.

[KuffDam]

Come on, feel the love tonight.

[ONKEN SOUND]

i`m feelin ther lurrv tonight. yeh


future sailers.... wooh yeh

[KuffDam]

Future Sailors was a pisstake of Drexciya surely.

[spoon]

i think i'm coming around to them, really enjoyed that episode.

[Tec]

Episode 4..

LOLCOPTER

"a peanut that can make me see into the future..."

[love_tempo]

I don't reckon, bit of a stupid show really.

ah ok, thought so, saves an hour of my time then. What about meadowlands then? Someone mentioned that but I haven't watched the first episode yet.

[bracket]

first episode of the new series that i thought was any good...

[gen-eral]

Emperors new clothes, 'oh look at me im in a band', shite.

ahh weescht you, i bet you weren't saying that when you were getting your asymmetric haircut. ;)

[Loz]

I'm with Jerome (think he said it) I never watched the Boosh because it was especially funny (although parts of it definitely are) but more because it has fantastic stories and weird bits and such.

I've enjoyed this series so far, it's getting better as the series goes on. People who complain about the self-parody are sort of missing the point, as they've been doing that since it started. And people complaining about Shoreditch not needing people to take the piss out of it were all saying that about Nathan Barley, too. But that was brilliant, and now most people have come around to agree with me.

[Orang Utan]

I liked Nathan Barley

[grobelaar]

Do you think people outside London/New Media know what the fuck they're talking about when they say Shoreditch/Hoxton.

Fielding seems to say it in the Boosh and also in interviews and on Buzzcocks. Has Shoreditch become a national mecca for the nu rave/wave scenesters? Bit like Camden was/is for goths/industrial types?

[penciLneck]

deffo. the combo of animation, weird bits and music does it for me.

[garew]

I fuckin' love the boosh. Great show. What is there not to like? Its random. Its psychedelic. Its funny. Its mostly at night time and that guy has a wicked nose. They have found a way to be funny without making fun of the current politically incorrect hot topic of the day. Which is a huge step.

[joe pinapples]

did any1 see them on Jonathan Ross' show last week? the one from nathan barley doesn't like to be on tv in that way and apparently had a freak out the other time he went on. it wasnt very interesting tho - it was better when Ross made fun of Brucey for being old and Brucey couldnt take it - that was funny-ish. Poor ol Bruce I think he was close to saying "my wifes 34 you know".

[emef]

Do you think people outside London/New Media know what the fuck they're talking about when they say Shoreditch/Hoxton.



i dont live in london and not in the new media but i know of Shoreditch/Hoxton and its mockery value


i think boosh is ace, never lived up to series 1 but still ace

[garew]

It seems to be a very British attribute to burn the famous in effigy.

[joe pinapples]

its just another shade of moaning. which is the only thing the British are world beaters at nowadays -



"0 i used to like them but now they are rubbish" - about anything/anyone.

Shoreditch is over now. Loads of bars have been closing down. I'm not cool enough to know where the new now place is though.

[Yer_Maw]

i was up that way and the pub i was in shut at 11 pm on a saturday night. how cool is THAT.

lol..

I had a very familiar conversation at work today... (the bits in brackets were not spoken out loud)

X: Do you like Hip Hop?
Me: Yes
X: Oh then you'll love ARTIST A
Me: No I don't really like that.
X: Oh then you'll love ARTIST B
Me: No I don't really like that.
X: Oh then you'll love ARTIST C
Me: No I don't really like that.
X: I thought you said you liked Hip Hop? (you're a cunt)
Me: I do (I ONLY LIKE GOOD HIP HOP)



I hate it when people tell you OH YOU'LL LOVE THIS.

can we guess the artists? Were they really obvious like P. Diddy and the gang?

[KuffDam]

Today it was Buck 65, RJD2 and I can't even remember the last one.
The format is always the same though :)

[spoon]

[KuffDam]

That's not true of the Hip Hop I like at all though, most of it is massively more popular than all that lame Buck65 or Ninja Tune type bollocks.

[spoon]

deffo. the new usher record is FUCKED btw...

[edit]

everything about it fuckin rocks as far as i'm concerned - though ep 2 was a tad dodgy. 3 was back to their old selves, lovely stuff - Gary Newman in a cupboard, whilst a trumpeting hare accompany's "it's what's inside that counts... it's not the jacket it's the tater..." - top wonk

[Tec]

You will fuckin love episode 4 Paul.

Big up the crack fox.

[Dask]

I like the Crack Fox, he is my favourite character from this series. lol

Can't really work out who it is that plays him, definitely not from that lo res real player stream anyway.

[bracket]

Shoreditch is over now. Loads of bars have been closing down. I'm not cool enough to know where the new now place is though.

It's Dalston

Handy, as it's only down the road. ;)

Right, I'm grabbing this now. If it's rubbish you're all going to get minus repped.



















not really, but I hope you're right :)
