30 minutes I'll never get back... I can only blame myself, after all I allowed it to happen. Although I do feel that the BBC3 executives should take a large portion of responsibility, and 'youth' culture can be burdened with the rest.
I sat through an entire programme of Scallywagga'. What was I thinking! Most sketch shows tire after three or four viewings because of the repeating themes, but in this case the repeating theme was evident immidiately... and that theme was "cr*p". Twice I smerked at a joke, and not only did I feel guilt and sorrow, also a tiny part of my mind wasted away and died.

So, I suppose what I'm trying to say is that I didn't much like it...

What comedy crime has wasted part of your valuable lifespan?

Hehe - not sure it would be wise to say as there are many. Try not to think of it as waste but as insight into what needs changing, and then go write it

I sat and watched that travesty. My only thought was that I wish I was 19 and ethnic, then maybe I might get my sketches looked at.

I saw the trailers for it... And left it at that... Nod

On the subject of sketch shows, though - I can honestly say the best material I've seen over the past few months has been online and NOT on TV... I'm really not sure what's going wrong... Channels like BBC3 are of huge value, though, they're one of very few that'll take a chance on new people... Thumbs Up

'New People' As long as you fit into a very niche demographic.

I know BBC3 is a 'yoof' channel but it doesn't ALL have to be written by Yoofs for it to be found funny by Yoofs.
