OH MY FUCKING GOD I LOVE GARTH MARENGHI!! DARKPLACE DARKPLACE!Apes of Wrath is the best episode. There's only a few episodes right? It has such a great style and the actors fit so well. The sexist jokes were hilarious and the black guy was my favorite character.

😃 Yeah, alas only six episodes.

Has anybody ever heard of the show Police Squad?

I've watched 2 episodes online so far, and holy shit is it funny as hell.

Why does the BBC have such interesting sounding documentary mini-series?

Yeah that's where The Naked Gun movies spawned from.

I am not that old. It is a little before my time, but I still love it.

The reason the show was cancelled was one of the stupidest reasons ever. Some guy at ABC said that it's a show an average TV watcher wouldn't get. You actually have to watch and pay attention to get the jokes. So um, what the hell are you doing when watching tv? Not paying attention?

I love the one episode where the girl (i think) gets kidnapped and the kidnappers throw the mime attached to a rock through the window. Then they all play sharades with the mime trying to figure out where they have to meet to give the kidnappers the money.

"Your sleeping. At a hotel? No, a motel?!" "Your aunts house!" :lol:

I'm over halfway through X-Files season 1. It's entertaining but every episode is like hit or miss. Can anyone tell me if the show gets better in the next season or if it's any different from the first?

I'm exactly where you are and thinking the exact same thing, but from what I hear in season 2 the show starts to get much better as we get multi-episode plotlines and more attention to the main plot.

In other news, Lost season 5 starts tommorow, and Flight of the Conchords returned on Sunday with a very funny episode.

Three episodes into the 2nd season myself, the first one's awesome then it's pretty much the same as season 1, some great moments, some less great moments, although I never really found any of s1 to be 'miss'.

I'm not sure I think there are any bad episodes either... but some of them have a less interesting "story" than the rest in my opinion. But look forward to see it all. Nine seasons, right? That's a lot of hours in front of the TV! :wacko:

My little brother has them all, I'm catching up slowly. Don't like it enough to watch non-stop, but it's awesome in moderation.

Aren't there a couple of movies that came out in-between seasons? If anyone know they must tell me so that I can see the whole "X-Files" shit chronologically... 🙂

It's on Wikipedia, but you don't have to worry until season 4, I think.

If that episode where Mulder has to hunt down the cavewoman living in New Jersey isn't a miss, I don't know what is.

Is that the episode named "The Jersey Devil"? If it is, I too thought that was a bit sub-par.

Stop talking about X-Files and watch Police Squad.

Come on, that was creepy as fuck. I totally jumped when it jumped out at him.
