Whenever I need TV comfort, and I mean 'coming home after a hard day of getting chewed out by irate clients' comfort, I go to M.A.S.H, The Vicar of Dibley, The IT Crowd or Arrested Development. The Twilight Zone is my final refuge.

now, if only they can work things out with Jim Mallon and give MST3K a kinda multiversal-reboot
They're doing it online, says on the wikipedia that they'll get a new host and have cameos from the alumni, and here they talk about new bots; very, very cool!!
Found this when, on a whim, I watched a rough cut of It Lives By Night on YouTube ("blowing mud") and this led to youtube videos of the Turkey Day marathon DVDs they've been releasing with the new intros and segments with Joel, and Trace and Josh doing Crow and Servo. After some time, I eventually searched on Google "mst3k reboot" and, viola!
So, truly, a multiversal-reboot; the Eternal Champion reincarnate!sigpic

Just watched the SKY TV miniseries, Terry Pratchett's Hogfather, again. Based on his Discworld novel of the same name. A very neat piece of storytelling, both the novel & the series. Great characters with some spot on casting, however eccentric the performance. Also with a profound moral, very Pratchett.
Now going to watch some Father Ted, for some more satirically quasi-religious comfort foodLast edited by Pietro_Mercurios; 12-26-2020, 03:38 AM. Reason: Corrected the series title from, 'Hogswatch.'

Just watched an episode of one of my favourite TV comfort series, Lovejoy. From season 2, Montezuma's Revenge. It's got everything. Cursed golden pre-Columbian artefacts, greasers on motorbikes, crooked managers of death metal bands & exotic femme fatales. Picaresque whimsy of the first order.
