This week we’re both feeling impossibly British as we dive into the 1981 adaptation of the Evelyn Waugh novel Brideshead Revisited.
We also discuss Peter’s continued obsession with the very funny Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, the ideal voice of Don Quixote’s Sancho Panza, how this measures up against Andrew Davies’ adaptation of Bleak House and the themes of religion and fall of the noble classes within both the book and the TV series (in-depth analysis alert!).
Happy Halloween everybody! This week we are watching the 1990 adaptation of Steven King’s mammoth novel It.
We also discuss the uncanny valley, why Peter can’t play BioShock, Michael C Hall and the upcoming 2017 version adaptation.
Time to get out the Pinot Noir as we settle ourselves in to talk about the Netflix original series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
We also discuss the new SNL cast choices, the hotness of Jon Hamm, our favourite gay contruction worker and the many malapropisms of Kimmy Schmidt
