Hunga Tonga

Well, it looks like we dodged a bullet with that one. It might The Big One of our times, but as big ones go it was pretty small. The ash levels are pretty low, most of the land mass lost was just tuff and tephra, and most of all the amount of sulphur rich gasses are tiny. Less even than a lot of much smaller volcanoes. The eruption didn't even last all that long. For all the noise, this was a pretty damp squib.

I hope they change both hosts in the next season, I'm so tired of their unfunny jokes. The whole absurd surrealist humour might work for Noel's TV show, whatever it was called, but when he prances around the tent asking participants to kiss a wooden spoon or whatever, he really gets on my nerves. And Matt is just plain not funny, does he even have any other jokes except: "Look at me, I'm bald, gay and fat!" It's literally the worst when he tries to imitate some foreign accent, cringe.

I do despise Matt Lucas. He normalised some pretty darn ableist jokes and ways of thinking which went onto inform the horrific anti-disabled policies of the current government. I suppose at least he has shown a degree of contrition, unlike his partner in crime in that one, but I still can't watch any show he is in without thinking of all the lives ruined by the ideas he popularised.

Also, all those cakes tend to look far too over-iced. Gives you diabetes just looking at half of them.

He is undeniably, for better and for worse, a fucking weird dude.

(Anonymous) 2022-01-16 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I see he hasn't put his past as a yellowface and brownface comedian behind him then.

(Anonymous) 2022-01-16 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't love the vibe at the moment. It feels like Noel is sort of tired of doing it, and Paul + Matt + Noel is a lot more sort of abrasive spiky-ness than the show needs.

I can't imagine Mel would be willing to come back but there has to be someone in the UK who's able to do a better job and it feels like a lot of the decisions being made are more about getting Big Names than about actually considering the dynamics of the show and what's actually necessary for the role. But unfortunately, it's really obvious that the overall quality of production has declined massively, so it seems unlikely that they'll start making better decisions about casting either.

NAYRT

I don't think "imitating foreign accents" is intrinsically the same as "yellowface and brownface".

While I agree Little Britain was an awful show, I think this may be assigning it a little more influence than is really justified.

(Anonymous) 2022-01-16 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Same principle, making fun of funny foreigners. Someone who is the subject of mockery due to the accent and heritage might not feel as charitable as you. I say that as someone who, when I lived in England, was subject to that daily mockery.

(Anonymous) 2022-01-16 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel like you are assigning it too little. I have trans friends who still get that show's catchphrase hurled at them. One of them was assaulted by drunken bastards chanting it at her.

What are your top 10 animated movies and top 10 animated tv shows?

(Anonymous) 2022-01-16 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree that it was awful. My question is more about how much influence it really had on government policy. Apart from anything else, the Tories seem highly capable of being shits without any influence from a comedy sketch show.
