Hi all

So, for various reasons i no longer have a TV, DVD's or any consoles, also, due to the lack of social life im staying in tonight. Given this rather sad state of affairs what would you recommend i watch? I only have the internet, so i suppose its going to be something from the 'demand' type services from the 'normal' TV channels.

My choices would be...

For the comedy:

IT Crowd - http://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-it-crowd/4o...
The Inbetweeners - http://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-inbetweener...
QI XL -http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00wclrb/QI_XL_Series_8_Horrible/#recommendSource=tv_episode_page
(and my secret love at the moment) Big Bang Theory - http://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-big-bang-th...

For the factual:

Life - http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00p1n00/Life...
The beauty of diagrams - http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00vl3h1/The_...

And if you only want one thing that is ultimately so PH that you have to watch..

Love the beast - http://www.channel4.com/programmes/love-the-beast

You could start from one but I think most episodes do work on there own.

S1 E5 always makes me laugh.

Strange how the brain works. Never seen it or watched it for years but the first thing that came into my head was "Hong Kong Phooey, number one super guy."

Community, I think it trumps all of the above. Professor Professorson lol. I think I'm the only person that doesn't find inbetweeners funny.

Spent last night and most of today watching Black Books series 1, 2 and half of 3.

Meh, has some funny bits but lots of not so funny bits. Quite like real life and docs etc.

Downloaded 'Love the Beast' last night though, looking forward to that smile
