The General Discussion Thread

You'd be shocked at the amount of movies I've not seen

Oh so you guys get Toys but not Bebe's Kids. Not cool, you guys got screwed over.

Almost done with Peaky Blinders season 4. Why do you guys call each season a series, silly gooses.

I leave in 2 hours for a turkey dinner.

Because it’s a series of episodes

You guys are like aliens.

Also because our TV doesn't work in the same seasonal manner as the US, so we never had any cause or reason to refer to one series of a TV show as a season.

Both make as much sense as each other though, in their national contexts:

America: TV series, season, episode. UK: TV show, series, episode.

They both follow the same format, we just have no reason to call a series of episodes a season. The only 'season' we have in UK TV is the Christmas season, and the only thing that's different about that is them showing a bunch of crap sequels to decent films, and apparently for some reason this year Ridley Scott's Robin Hood about five times.

Have you even seen that film? What ****ed version of Robin Hood culminates with him fighting the French on the British beaches? Lord above. Still, at least it has Max von Sydow, Oscar Isaac, Mark Strong and Cate Blanchett in it. Good cast, duff film.

What were we talking about again?

I usually refer to American shows' series as seasons though, just to be culturally specific

I saw Robin Hood Men In Tights.

That's still a more accurate Robin Hood film than this one

I believe I saw the Kevin Costner Robin Hood too. But then that dude was everywhere in the early 90s.

My one niece painted on her dog according to her parents, but she tells me no I just painted a piece of paper and the dog rolled on it. I can't f*cking disprove that shit.

I hate when I remember past things with people that are no longer in my life

Find the paper

They painted on paper and other things too. They keep getting more intelligent.

I am watching Scrooged

Brexit was shaping up to be proper shit until I heard about the blue passports, now I'm wishing I voted Leave in the first place

Ikr. Who doesn’t love a blue passport!

Finally everything has all been worth it

Sure we lose the right to work in and easily travel to 26 different countries but it's blue
