Flash Tizzle Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I watched an episode of Summer Heights High on HBO On Demand yesterday and found it hysterical. It was Episode Five, the most recent. After this I had high expectations of the show but upon backtracking and watching the other four I was unimpressed. But really, if you have HBO on Demand check out atleast the one episode. It doesn't really require you to start from the beginning to understand everything.

I don't have HBO, but I have taken in a show on the Hussein regime on either History Channel or Discovery, either way it was just incredible. The things that were done were just mind-blowing.

That's what makes the British version so much better. Most of the episodes now include implausible scenarios. No longer a can't miss show for me.

I'm really gonna miss it.... This last one was very good. I admit that the first 2 or 3 were sorta week, but you can only do so much in an hour show to set up the season. And they keep it clean with only 2 story lines, and even they intersect, so it wasn't a rambling mess like Heroes has become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 rambling mess like Heroes has become. Heroes story line has been brilliant. It may be complicated but its a treat for those who stay up with it and see how its developing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juddling Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 At least Heroes has gotten around to killing off some characters. They were getting too big castwise to devote enough time to all the characters and storylines. On another note....here's another Lost clip......for me the new season can't come soon enough.

Finale sucked, mostly because they NEVER can give me answers and must make me wait until after the Super Bowl. f*** yourself Heroes. I do like that Peter got his powers back. Not sure what that power is that Ando is sporting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never knew what he did to his best friend before watching and found it very disturbing, especially the reaction of everyone afterwards. What became difficult (and I can't imagine it'll improve in the following installments) was keeping up with the names, and on occassion, having to backtrack in the episode to hear the dialogue because their accents made it difficult to understand.
