"Threw" is the past-tense of throwing something. Like "I threw a ball and it broke a window". But you watched the whole way through the programme.

I dunno, maybe you threw your TV out of the window though?

I *want* to like the Boosh. Really, I tried to watch a few episodes...visited a few forums to try and see the draw, watched a few more. Just can't freaking stand that show. Flame away or convince me of its' brilliance? The usual thing people tell me is that it is a British humour that is not translating overseas. That does not prevent me from regularly LOVING 99.9% of what I can get my hands on.

*huh*

I think the problem is that America doesn't really do surreal sitcoms. You lot like to stick to the basic set up, of a family, or a group of friends, living together, in a house or an apartment, with the audience cheering, as various characters come through the front door etc. The Boosh is a world away from all that.

Well, I love the Boosh, but yeah, surreal comedies don't always go over that well here in the States. Take GET A LIFE (80's show with Chris Elliot) for example. FANTASTIC show, but it's hard to convince some people that stupid can be funny.

Series 3 of the Boosh had fewer memorable moments for me, though... may have just been my view of it, though.

oh-when? because I will probably be back at school for it then! there is always iPlayer for Love Soup, like I said.


Oh but the special part is on on Monday on it's own-so could watch Love Soup today then Mighty Boosh special bit on Monday at nine?
