TV shows!!!

I'm now dipping into a bit of British comedy, now obsessing [of course] over the shows A Bit of Fry and Laurie, and QI (AKA, Quite Interesting). I've shifted a bit over from Hugh Laurie to Stephen Fry.

Who might be the ONLY *literary* genius that I'll actually acknowledge as a *genius*. Seriously.



I want him as my lawyer. Amazing way with words.

Anyway, that was a bit of a tangent. A Bit of Fry and Laurie is your typical pointless and plotless random British comedy, and QI is a sort of... quiz show, you might call it, with nearly impossible questions, unfair scoring, and every contestant is a comedian. Brilliant show.

Thanks to these, and in particular, Stephen Fry, I'm catching a bit of an English accent on top of all this.

Brian Regan (Comedian) rocks!

Yeah, I especially liked his most recent act that we listened to. It was hilarious!

Also that other comedian, what was his name? I think it started with Jerry. He's certainly not better then Brian Regan though.

Jerry Sienfeld, I think. He was funny also

Doesn't he have his own TV show (Or had, I'm not sure)?

Used to, yes.

Speaking of hilarious, brilliant comedians, Craig Ferguson. The Late Late Show is awesomely hilarious.

I think that Stephen Colbert is magnificent. The thing I like most about his show is that you can really tell that he believes in what he says, and is sincere in all his convictions.

I just started cracking up at this.

During the wave of my obsession with Stephen Fry I was getting obsessed to A Bit of Fry and Laurie, getting a bit into Blackadder, very much into Kingdom, burned through the entire series of Jeeves and Wooster in a matter of two weeks, became massively obsessed to QI and, as a result, David Mitchell. Not that those obsessions have completely gone, but I've already been now hooked on to Whose Line Is It Anyway [US version].

Well that was quick.

I'm now obsessed with Psych. And that's pretty much it. (This post detailing my TV show obsession fails compared to Insanity's. Oh well. )

Psych is great. Monk is better, but Psych is still good. Season six comes back in the fall.

I've only seen like one episode of Monk, but I plan on catching up with Netflix, 'cause I've heard great things about it. I can't wait for season 6

It's just that I have a lot of obsessions. XD

I have (almost) as many obsessions as you...whether that is a good thing or not i don't know but I have become addicted to a show called criminal minds it is like CSI only they are profiling serial killers and there is like no out side drama so it is pure crime solving also I am watching CSI (sometimes) and cold case files which is about unsolved murders that are reopened up due to new evidence which is pretty cool but not as cool as CRIMINAL MINDS

I move quicker in obtaining new obsessions than you.
