    • Goddamn! Thanks for the heads up!srhadden
    • What what!?monospaced
    • yeahyeah!%/sted
    • Am I the only person that wished he'd stuck with Wipe series? BM was good for a few, but honestly I can't be arsed. I prefer the man behind the desk.garbage
    • (this could be the words of a man who sent an on spec script that was rejected, yet there was an eerily similar story in S2)garbage
    • I don’t even know the Wipe series.monospaced
    • its on streamberrysted
    • @mono that's the Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe.sted
    • @garbage What?? You did?!Continuity
    • Loved them, but man, every episode is so depressing!formed
    • Yeah this show is such a bummerscarabin
    • Great stuff thoughscarabin
    • @cont Yeah. I was a huge fan of his work when BM first came out, and I thought maybe I wouldn't write copy for the rest of my life.garbage
    • The details are boring and I will keep them vague, but I deserve a writing credit because one of the ideas that I had fairly fleshed out was plagiarized.garbage
    • Not blaming Brooker at all. Likely a handler that took my idea and passed it along. It's my dumbest humble brag.garbage
    • It was over a decade ago; I've moved on. The entertainment industry is a sea of cutthroats. I'll probably have to wade back in after AI takes over copy.garbage
    • +1 garbage I loved all the Wipes. Cunk was better there too. And Nathan Barley was a another earlier high point with Sir Christopher of Morris.MrT
    • Agreed on Barley and Morris. I was deemed severely uncool and very beatupable in high school because nobody got my Blue Jam or Brass Eye references.garbage
    • Can't blame them, they were inbred hicks.garbage
    • Watching first ep now!prophetone
    • Great first epprophetone
    • yeah liked it as well_niko
    • I'd say really good. I got really engaged when it got more complex.jagara
    • Fuck. Raw deal, garbage. I guess that's what agents are for. :\Continuity
    • Big fan of Brass Eye!skinny_puppy
    • Ep01: Netflix + AI bad
      Ep02: Netflix bad
      Don't know if I can be arsed with this...
      Jrdntnnr
    • @cont, yeah, but is what it is. Small world though. I first knew of Limmy from his Wipe segments. Little did I know that back in the day I was..garbage
    • ..talking shit to actual Limmy on QBN. A hilarious small world.garbage
    • That's the same Limmy?! God, have I not been paying attention?Continuity
    • @continuity, you really are clueless!palimpsest
    • Here's Limmy!

    • lolsted
    • Ah, yup. I own that cluelessness.Continuity
    • Man, I remember Linmy’s flash piano thing that played “ You. Are. A. Fucking. Cunt”_niko
    • Ha yeah, he was one of us. Made a spicy piano.garbage
    • Ok watched it. Found it pretty meh. Miss the futurism and don't find the dive into the supernatural very refreshingsrhadden
    • Just watched 1st episode of season 6. Started out great, progressed nicely, and then it completely fell apart and went to shit last 20 min. Bummer.Krassy
    • Heh, I felt the reverse, got more engaged in the last 20 mins :)jagara
    • I felt the opposite, I mean :)jagara
