Monday at 10 on BBC2.

Josh, not official, but Hola and iPlayer should do the trick.

Jesus QI is 12 years old already.

Hm. I may finally give Hola a shot. Any chance you can view older episodes that way too?

[Benji]

Unfortunately not, they tend to stay on iPlayer for a week or two before being deleted. Some older series can be viewed on Netflix UK via Hola too though.

The Demon Headmaster just appeared on an episode of Goodnight Sweetheart. Rush of nostalgia

[Benjamin]

This is undoubtedly B99's best part ever. Don't click if you don't want the season 2 premiere spoiled.

Also, warning: Don't be having anything in your mouth when you watch it, unless you want to be cleaning spaghetti off your screen like um, someone I know.

Oh, Goodnight Sweetheart the greatest sit com about time travel and bigamy.

Also Buzzcocks still exists!?

I like how The Master in The Strain is pretty much the same Master from Buffy

[Benjamin]

Anyone watching The Chair? It's super interesting and I really, really like the concept. The way it's shot and everything is really good, too.

[Benji]

I can't figure out if The Strain is cheesey good or cheesey bad.

[Benjamin]

Last Week's Tonight "How is This Still a Thing?" piece on Ayn Rand is the greatest thing ever.

[Maxx]

I can't figure out if The Strain is cheesey good or cheesey bad.

It is a pendulum swinging in between

[Benjamin]

Stephen Graham was fucking marvellous on Boardwalk this week. Super sad there was no sign of Chalky, though, but still my favourite episode of the season so far.

[GoGo Yubari]

Drunk, snarky Margaret is the BEST Margaret.

[Benjamin]

Yes! I loved all the date scenes, it was such fun, and I fucking loved it. The flashback scenes were great, too, but still, the entire Chicago part was still my favourite. I'm still pining for Al Capone to get his own spin-off, I hope to God he doesn't get killed.

Spoilers for this week's episode:

Seriously, though, Sally

And I don't know if this constitutes as spoilers or not, but one for the entire series:

Just wiki'd Capone's date of death. Joy!

[Benji]

I really wish Buzzcocks could be all identity parade.

[Benji]

The Simpsons/Family Guy crossover was waaaaay too much Family Guy. Still somewhat amusing, but very one sided. The court scene was the highlight, in particular...

... FRED FLINTSTONE CAMEO!

Seriously, I marked the fuck out for that.

The near 10 minute fight was fucking ridiculous and stupid though.

[Ant]

It was a Family Guy episode though to be fair

[Jimmy]

Would recommend people check out Marvellous, the BBC one-off about Neil Baldwin, a guy born with learning difficulties who, amongst other things, was Stoke City's kit man. Toby Jones is absolutely incredible, and it's a really well made bit of TV.

Best use of a high quality Rayon sunhat ever.

They made 3 sunhat jokes!
