    I think the joke I referenced was left in when I saw the episode recently but maybe they were riding it out as "Granddad is senile."

    But yeah you're right that I think a lot of iffy stuff got pulled.

    I wonder if the scene where Del is terrified a gay man is going to bum him has been left in, you'd be cutting the episode by about 10 minutes if not.

    "Are they a couple of ravers?"

    "No, they're a couple of geezers"

    I'm surprised they still air it.

    It's all very small time. If the movement had anything about it they'd be dragging Boris out of No 10.

    The key to good tv comedy is being PC. Surely that’s obvious.

    At least gossip girl is safe.

    Picked up Ray Donovan season 6 after a year or three break from when I finished 5. Surprisingly good.

    I'm 6 episodes into The Man in the High Castle and after a reasonably good start it's veered off into absolute shite over the last 2/3 episodes.

    Newest series of Goliath is fucking weird. Sticking with it in the hope of a payoff.

    I think that's around the time I lost interest. I still want to pick it back up at some point, but it's been years now, so I'd probably need to start again.

    I can't remember what happens when so no idea where you are, but there are definitely points when it veers into the absurd and then points when it picks up again. Overall I certainly enjoyed the four series.

    It is a lot better with answers than Lost is.

    Is the 4k Netflix then worth the extra or is it one of those setups where there’s only about 3 things on it in the resolution?

    Finished season 1 of Castle Man and it's now gone a bit Fringe.

    It's not bad Giggles, most if not all of their stuff is in 4k, but I say that not having checked what the difference in cost between the packages is since I signed up for it.

    Just finished season 4 and honestly, it wasn't as bad as I remembered it.

    There were a couple of shitters (German War one, Puppets and the "Whale" episode) but there were still some good episodes in there.

    Aside from Herstory of Dance and the Freaky Friday episode, season 4 can go die in a fire.

    I saw on TV that they'd made My Family available on iplayer. Had completely forgot about it but I used to enjoy it as a kid. Watched episode 1 and it's solid, I may try stick with it for a nice innocent walk down memory lane. 11 series though? I recall the older son leaving and me losing interest so hopefully that occurs soon.

    Not sure why I've never watched them before but 30 for 30 is brilliant. Watching the holyfield Tyson one now after the USC Trojans one. Great stories.

    Netflix have removed the first Dungeons & Dragons episode (season 2) of Community for Ken Jeong's blackface/Dark Elf.

    Had a feeling that would happen when episodes of other shows started getting pulled which is what sparked my re-watch.

    Ridiculous.

    Do they let viewers know there’s an episode missing?

    No. They just changed the numbers of the following episodes so everything looks "normal".

    I don't want to sound all #WhiteLivesMatter- but how does this censorship work for sketches like Key & Peele - who spend a lot of time imitating Mexican and Indians, for example.

    That can't be true, since racism is a crime and crime is for blacks.

    I think you'll want to be avoiding the new series of Brooklyn Nine Nine, by the way. They've apparently completely binned the four episodes they'd managed to complete prior to lockdown and will be starting afresh, presumably because they want to address the BLM stuff. They did a good job with the episode where Terry got stopped for being black so they get the benefit of the doubt from me.

    I’d be of the same thinking about that episode too but 4+ episodes of it will be a bit of a chore.

    It's to do with BLM but from what I read they're redoing it because whatever they filmed doesn't feel right anymore.

    I read about that scene in The Office because I didn't remember it and it seems like it was removed even though the point of it was that black face isn't okay.

    I posted before about a lad I know who only goes out with dark-skinned black women, which is clearly a fetish; but he's the nerdiest Star Trek glasses cunt ever, and his black wife cheated on him with an even bigger soy boy, so seemingly black people have similar fetishes for white people as colossal nerds.
