really? for something that lasts 40 seconds and is only really a little less funny than the rest?


I hate to agree with Mike, but yeah, this.

i actually find it obnoxious - not just simply unfunny - which is why i turned it off and went to another programme instead.

no one on here does any different if they dislike something. :rolleyes: plus i didn't know that it was only short.

People generally last more than 40 seconds if a section they don't like comes up :P

I was hunting around to see what's happening with the next dexter book and I came across this.

Jennifer Carpenter - who plays Dexter's sister Deb - recently confirmed to Digital Spy that the show's eighth season will be its last.

Watched the third GoT episode last night. Most enjoyable one of this series yet I think.

I'd say most people power through it to see where the rest of the episode goes..

Urgh, the Melisandre/Davos scene in Game of Thrones was just as bad as I thought it would be. :ugh: :ugh:

I think it's just the fact it was less than a minute. Like, if something I really despise comes up I'll just skip forward a couple of minutes. Like awkward moments in tv shows.

It's why I skipped through basically all of the office.

It is indeed a crime. Skipping episodes because of short moments of Inspector Spacetime is basically like letting the Blorgons win.

In all seriousness though, I don't like Dr Who. When I saw Abed was basically watching Dr Who I was disappointed because I knew there'd be constant references to something I didn't care for. But for all I care, they could do a whole episode about Inspector Spacetime and I'd still watch it, because I love the show.

But hey, if you want to skip it based on 10% of the episode being about something you don't like, it's your loss :yes:
