Gervais has a new series with Merchant in the pipelines called "Lifes' short" which revolves around the couple and a midget, they say filmed in the same vogue as Curb your Enthusiasm. This has me bloody excited!!

There is going to be a new series of Curb for those that may be interested, Gervais is going to be in it. How great is Curb quietly? Know its a yank series, but one of the funniest out there! Larry David is unbelievable!

One more show to hit the airs in UK- An idiot abroad.

For those of you who are familiar with Gervais and Merchant, you have surely heard about Karl Pilkington aswell. Well they decided to send this bafoon/unintentinal comedic GOD to visit all the wonders of the world, and his observations and experiences are tear jerkingly funny.

I chase those laughs that make you think your going to die- as in struggle to breath and think your hearts going to give way- they are the best laughs. An Idiot abroad... first stop China- we all know what Pilkington thinks of the Chinese!

I've noticed a few mentions of Peep Show. Mitchell & Webb play the main characters in the show but are also very funny in their own right.

Ha, nice one. I only know him from Parks & Recreation (great show BTW).

It always surprises me to see some actors doing other things. Donald Glover from Community (another good show) is another in a similar situation.

Disappointing game today. I can't help but think we need someone to really give the players a rev up. Uncompromising, draw a line in the sand kinda guy.

Vote 1 for Leon.

A friend of mine was in labor for thirty-six hours. She told me it was a terrible experience for her, so I said "Maybe politics isn't for you."

I went to the pub last night and there was this generously sized girl dancing on a table. I walked passed and said "wow, amazing legs". The girl giggled and said with a smile "Do you really think so". I said "Definitely, most tables would have collapsed by now"!!

Here's a few clips from my favourite comedy movie Hercules Returns. It's Aussie, it's a classic and it's a pissah!

I've just finished watching Man On The Moon, about Andy Kaufman. I thought I'd seen it before, but apparently not. Funny man.
