It's on channel 4 now (UK). Tis Trigger Happy TV, but in America. Cool.

Heh, he just did the phone thing on top of the empire states building. Nice. Heh. Dead dog sketch. Nice. Hmmm. It isn't all just him, like the old show.

Opening music was not as good annoyingly.

Still, watch it. Bound to be 99% better than most other things on these days.

Heh... Gay and lesbian only parking... heh...

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

Hmmm. Not bad, but not as good as original. Overdose of the animal costumes.

Still waiting for a sketch to better the supermarket one where they told a guy he had one minute to get as much as possible (he was the 1000th customer or something). Then they ran off. Poor guy came zooming out with a cart load of stuff, and no-one there. Hohoho....

As you say, not bad but maybe will get better.

Now to watch more of 'shattered'. Not sure I could last more than couple of days without sleeping, but then again £100,000 is a nice incentive!

Boo!

Yep, that is pretty good for normally rubbish reality TV (Shattered that is). Just waiting for someone to fall over and break a bone or two from tiredness.

I loved the first THTV. The one with the santa oming out of the chimney was the best

One of my favourites...Guy walks into a sex-shop, when he comes out he is greeted by a "babe", and a brass band for being 1 millionth customer.

My favourite one was where a woman was walking a dog, and they drop a load of plates off the back of a lorry. The noise makes her jump, and she almost strangles her dog by lifting the lead up in the air.

US version looks ok. But far too much animals. Hopefully will bring back the spies. And perhaps the artist.

Don't forget the sketch where there is an office party. And a proper band is getting them all going a bit. Where a bloke in the party starts yelling things like "we're going to party all night!!!! we're going to dance for hours!!!". The whole crowd agree and their all jumping around happy etc. Then the band start to play. The crowd all look at each other, look a little dissapointed, then all walk out of the room. All of them. And the band keep playing for a bit. Hohoho.
