Episode 20: Inbetween Fade Street and the Fringe
A somewhat lowkey cast this time around. It had been a trying week for both of us but at least television was there to light the way!
Onwards and upwards!
00m24s You can join us on our Facebook Page
01m29s The hyperlocal news is that I got a new TV
02m50s We also got a HD box so we have one HD channel. Yes it’s BBC
02m52s Neither myself nor Rosemary understand the obsession with 3D TV. As she says we see people in 3D all day every day
03m03s Turns out I’m not imagining that 3D isn’t great. It’s a side-effect of astigmatism.
04m04s While our TV was broke we watched stuff on RTÉ Player and on 4OD
04m21s We discuss a report on Hulu report. Hulu is an online platform for watching TV content, generated a record 1.1 billion US unique ad views in October 2010, to comScore Video Metrix data.
05m45s Both of us wish that they would mix up the ads on 4OD
06m34s We discuss the results of our poll
08m41s Recession? What recession? We also got a new fridge so I hope it’s not upsetting our listeners.
09m14s Rosemary announces that we will be running a poll every week. I wonder if that’s a job I can delegate to her…
10m28s Rosemary has been watching and loving Big Love as has one of our Facebook fans Lizzy McGlynn
12m02s Rosemary talks a little about the actors Jeanne Tripplehorn and Chloe Sevigny who star in Big Love.
12m50s Reminds her a little of when she watched Amish: The World’s Squarest Teenagers
15m21s I mention this National Geographic Article about polygamists.
18m 18s Rosemary loves her box set of Big Love especially Chloe Sevigny
18m37s It was kind of inevitable but we had to discuss Fade Street. Brace yourselves
18m55s I mention Bernice Harrison’s review of Fade Street which panned not only Fade Street but all of RTÉ2. However you should read this article also from the Irish Times to get a different perspective.
26m21s Our final verdict on Fade Street
26m32s What is awesome is this according to Rosemary. I tend not to agree to be honest.
27m14s We move on to a programme about young people that is actually entertaining
27m49s We have both been catching up on The Inbetweeners
30m 27s Our verdict on The InBetweeners? Watch it. Now. No excuses. Here’s a link. It is brill
31m10s I have also been watching The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret
33m08s A conversation ensues about the pronunciation of niche
34m24s The answer is homonym
34m59s I have also watched 6 episodes of The Event which is not filling the Lost void in my life
35m26s One of the other series that we love on The Rosie View is Fringe but the sad new is that it looks like it will not be renewed in 2011
36m20s Fade Street gets another mention. We discuss how nicely produced it is, how we’re happy to see Irish TV trying different formats and how great Dublin looks in it
37m49s We plan to discuss boxsets on the next podcast so let us know which you want for Christmas
