New shooting stars tonight.

[Captain Shaw]

I do not know if anyone on here watchers shooting stars but if you do its on BBC 2 at 10PM.

 

[Bob The Skutter]

It's on BBC HD too. I think I'll watch, but I wasn't impressed with the christmas special. And after Vic Reeves saying comedy is stale and unoriginal, then acting like Shooting Stars is still original I am thinking he needs to shut the fuck up.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I liked it in the nineties, but Vic Reeves is a bit of a knob now. Will watch anyway, probably.

 

[HappyDayRiot]

I love Shooting Stars. Original? Dated? Still better than a fair chunk of BBC's other comedy lately. Can't wait.

And Jack Dee is my hero.

 

[Captain Shaw]

Never saw the Original. I did not think much to the Christmas special but will give tonights episode ago.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It was alright, other than the Angelos guy. It's weird seeing Matt Lucas actually being funny again after years of Little Britain.

 

[Pindar]

Christine hmmmmmm.

Resurrecting old shows rarely works.

BSG, Star Trek

 

[Deckerd]

They can be convincingly argued as new shows. I didn't watch it but I'm prepared to bet SS was exactly the same format as the original shows.

 

[HappyDayRiot]

Oh yes it was. And I enjoyed it immensely. Had me laughing like an idiot. Just want I needed.

 

[Bob The Skutter]

I can't say I was impressed, a few laughs but, what Deckerd said, it was exactly the same as it was 10 years ago... talk about "stale and unoriginal". And that has Jim Steele calling me a curmudgeony cunt, but it's unfunny because it grew stale after 5 series on the air 10 years back.

 

[Deckerd]

From Jim that's a compliment.

 

[ITL]

Shooting Stars was never the best thing Vic and Bob did, even at it's funniest.

This was.
