Campus

Did anyone watch Campus yesterday on C4 - Green Wing has found it's successor!

Weird twisted comedy set at university. Not Unseen University, although it odes feature lecturers who can't be bothered to teach.

Got it recorded. Take it it's worth watching then?

I loved it, the humour is very specific, though,, so random.

Just what I like. 8)

 

[Dotsie]

Didn't like it. Ah well!

It seemed like it was trying to be a satire on British universities, but then it would go way over the top. Then a few surreal scenes would be thrown in. It just ended up irritating me, and I got bored.

Saw the first 10 minutes, then noticed it was a 50 minute show while I only had time for a 25 minute show

I'll probably finish watching it since it had some chuckles.

 

[DaveC]

No worries. I can't wait for the next one!

Okay senior moment there! It wasn't poking them in the mouth it was squishing their head, can't find which show it was originally in in the 1990's but this advert basically ripped it off http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxaoWrO7nl0

That was genius, never seen that before.

The 'squishing your head' stuff was in Kids in the Hall but might also have been done in other shows.

I loved Kids in the Hall. I daren't watch it now in case it crushes another childhood memory


edit: just clicked the link and saw that there are loads of Kids in the Hall suggestions afterwards
