I think the most absurd character is The Carpeted Man, who the other 'superheroes' think is ridiculous.

It used to be on BBC2 .... after they stopped showing Ren & Stimpy they had a void that needed filling. Cue Tick

Those were the golden days of TV. It was when Eurotrash was the only window into the world of the weird, Father Ted was brand-new, The Simpsons had yet to hit its stride, Beavis & Butt-head made music fun, and Have I Got News For You and Rory Bremner were the only shows with political satire.

I read the synopsis and even though I love Kristen Bell I wasn’t convinced. Give us your opinions if you give it a try though.

Watched the pilot and enjoyed it but think it will take a few more episodes to make up my mind, it's quite surreal in places but had to see how they can got more than one season out of the idea

Stag.
Bloody brilliant. Um have you heard of it?
I hadn't. Three part BBC series currently on Netflix.
I'll write a better review tomorrow, when I'm sober. And it's not 2.40 in the morning.

So I was just having a little browse on Netflix last night not necessarily looking to watch anything but just see of anything new was of interest. I came across this

A rain soaked Ian arrives at a pub in the Scottish Highlands for his future brother in laws stag do. The brother in law and his mates are an odd assortment of man-children with more money than sense and Geography teacher Ian is clearly out of his depth. Following a night of boozing after which the group leave Ian to foot the bill the local gamekeeper drives the gang out into the remote wilds for a weekend of hunting.
Unable to cross a heavily flooded road and pissed off with the group's drunken antics the gamekeeper ditches them in the arse end of nowhere. Still somewhat innebriated they decide to make their way into woods and set up camp for the night only to soon find its they that are being hunted when one of their number is taken out by a harpoon. From the get go Stag is brilliantly written and acted although it has to be said it does feel its taken its cue from Christopher Smith's superb Severance. Fortunately it throws in enough of its own originality with a decent twisting plot. Some amusing characters and character development and a quirky line in surreal British humour. Highly recommended.

Starting season 7 of American Horror Story.

Episode 3 of The Orville, the show has gotten better with each episode and really is more of a homage to TNG and TOS than a spoof as this episode proves as it's a very "Trek" type story which involves one the crew men who had a child last episode wanting to have a sex change preformed on the child as the planet they come from everyone is male and it's all done in a very Trek way

From watching the latest trailer of Discovery I can see it being good sci-fi but maybe not good star trek , if you are looking form that I would give Orville a try.
