Hiya
For those that are interested the Golden Globe Awards are being shown this coming Monday at 1 am on SKY PREMIER.
I know that only helps those that have sky and have the movie package but thought it would be worth posting.
I've just added it to record on my sky + .. lolol

I'm torn on the Gervais issue....

I like rude comedy, but I have noticed, especially with these celebrity roasts, that things seem to be drifting into mean spiritedness. "Taking the piss", "busting b*lls"....these things have been around for a long time, but it is a fine line....one where context should be considered.

I don't think he went too far much, but I do take issue with the Scientollogy/gay prod at Cruise and Travolta. It's a dig at gays for one thing...which is sh*tty
I just hope that more people will ignore the fatalism of the argument that we are beyond repair. We are not beyond repair. We are never beyond repair. - AOC

Nope.  Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain on broadcast television.  Or basic cable.  :)

In regards to the Ricky Gervis thing. I thought it was funny but I only watched the small clip not the entire show. Isn't he known as being a bit of an insult comedian? I mean they knew his sense of humor when they hired him to host the show. I just don't see the big deal....I guess it takes more then what he said to offend me. Beside I think Tim Allen and Tom Hanks had a good go at him.
