Gogglebox Australia

Is there such a thing as celebrity goggle box? That would be interesting.

This is the one I watched - last year

OMG look at Marilyn! Boy George should be good value.
 
Welcome back!

Thanks!

I only caught maybe five minutes of audio from the latest episode of Gogglebox, so I'll have to catch up. Thankfully I recorded them on Foxtel: I had no idea episodes were only on Tenplay for a day!

...hey iJake... welcome back my friend!... new Avatar too...cheers.

Yes, well I thought it best to show off my 'new look'—which is more or less my 'old look', just with a different colour, haha. It's good to see/read you, Sticky!

Boy George wasn't good value at all - somewhat disapointing really. No idea who Marilyn is either.

Jamie Dornan and Miranda (and her mum) were good value, but they were all upstaged by a dog drinking some milk while their owners weren't looking!

This is where Gogglebox really works :

...I finally got over my sulkies with this lot after they all rubbished Doctor Who (GRRRRR!) and have realised that they are paid to rubbish every show that they watch... not to praise them... there were some funny moments on last night's show... when they showed part of 'House Husbands' where two gay guys got married and kissed and Tom said to his gay partner Wayne ... "that's gross!... don't let gay people get married!"... the look on Wayne's face was priceless... that dog of Angie and Yvie's brought out a funny comment where Angie said that they should call the dog Julian Assange... 'the hacker' (because it was coughing up furballs or whatever) lol!...

...another funny thing was when Wayne explained that he could've had two separate identities because he was adopted and Tom said... "I could've had a menage-a-trios!"... lol!...that father in 'The Dalton Family' is a total wanker... end of story... and the reporter from 'A Current Affair' saying to the head of Centrelink that "you're an ex-soldier so rules are important to you..."... crap was soooooooo shit!... (we are talking about a 'Channel 9' show so don't get me started on that lol!)...

...'Beach Cops'... some guy gets a $500 fine for crapping in the bushes on someones front lawn... yeah I know... such riveting TV eh?... then while chasing after someone in a bus lane the cops have a car crash which stopped the pursuit... a bit better TV viewing I guess...

...'Mesmerised' is next... a show on hypnotism... Di the old duck believes that ISIS uses hypnotism on suicide bombers to get them to do what they do... lol!... he hypnotises three people into believing that they are seagulls on a beach... (thank God that I didn't watch this drivel)... then some guy marries a Alpaca... what a shit show!...

...'River Cottage' is next... they show the shooting and skinning of a goat and everyone is appalled... then they prepare a Scottish Haggis with it's innards... (another show that I'm glad that I didn't see)...

...a show on Pokies is next... apparently there are 200,000 pokie machines in Australia drawing in about $12 billion dollars a year!... what the frig?...

...'Back in time for dinner' is next... an English show about families going back in time within their own house and eating food of the 50's/60's/70's and 80's etc... seeing them dressed up as people as if they were in the 80's and their house made to look like a house in the 80's was a trip back in time for a lot of us methinks lol!...

...'Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares' was next... as you expect the freezer and kitchen were totally disgusting of course... (otherwise... what is the purpose of the show?)... and of course Gordon had 'turned the restaurant around'... ho hum!...

...overall... not a bad show last night... cheers.
 
That mesmerise show looked so crap, I loved the reactions to it.

I love meat but I really couldn't watch that goat footage, I had to fast forward as soon as the guy picked the goat up as I knew it was going to be bad. But I know that that's kinda point of the show.

Goat aside, good ep.

That family with 6 (i think?) kids are getting much more vocal this season. They were fairly silent last season but now they feature quite heavily, meanwhile that other slightly alternative/geeky family are going by the wayside.
 
I don't watch any of the shows they featured this week, so it was a bit odd in that respect, still interesting though.

I watched this series not long ago. I'm totes into food so it was a really good watch. Was very interesting in the 50's to see how little food people had due to rationing and to go where we are now & see the absolute abundance of food and much is wasted. Very interesting show.
 
And they rubbished Doctor Who again! The girls were like "I'd rather watch this than Doctor Who".
Actually she said she'd rather watch Doctor Who, but either way it was not complimentary. I used to love Doctor Who but the last Doctor ruined it for me and I couldn't watch it any more.

They really made them watch some shit shows this week! That hypnotism one should never have made it to air.

I find Gogglebox more entertaining when I have actually seen -- or are at least familiar with -- the shows.
 
...tonight's show... they show them doing tandem skydiving on 'The Batchelorette'... that is so fantastic to do!... (I'm going to do it again when I turn 65 lol!)... Anastasia loves using the word 'Malaka'' doesn't she?... and she wants to be the next Batchelorette!... when Angie asks... "what are we going to watch now?"... Yvie responds... "Porn!"... lol!...

...every time that Wayne and Tom talk they crack me up... when they show a show about Thailand and show a 'ladies man' named 'Todd'... what a wanker!... one of the daughters when asked by her father what would she do if he walked up to her and said that line to her she said ... "you kick those types in the nuts and run lol!"... everyone watching the show hated the tosser big time as did I and I didn't even watch the show!... a 'man boobs' operation comes on... URGH!...

...'Family Feud' is next... "I love bogan gays... they are so cute!" says Angie... "Crocodile Dundee" comes on... (a great movie in my book)... "the crocodile and Hoge's have exactly the same skin!"... was someone's comment lol!... watching Anastasia on that wobble board 'exercising' was a sight to behold wasn't it?...

...a show about our border control at the airports is next... the woman from Vietnam got the full treatment didn't she?... she had raw seafood in her case!... what is wrong with these people?... surely they aren't really that stupid are they?... 'The Biggest Loser" is just a massive squabble between everyone on the show... I don't even watch the show but all that 'tough talk' seemed so scripted to me...

..."Geordie Shore"...looks like such a crap show to me... some drunk girl standing in her hotel room peeing herself showed me just how 'classy' a show that it was... and people watch this for entertainment?... my mind just boggles!...

...a few great comments by them overall... none of them annoyed me tonight which is good... a good show tonight... cheers.
 
I remember when Jersey Shore came out & everyone was outraged!! Little did they know that Geordie Shore would come out & that was 1,000,000 times worse. Snooki was like Mother Theresa compared to that lot. I watched the first series but I bowed out after that.

I <3 gogglebox
 
"Crocodile Dundee" comes on... (a great movie in my book)... "the crocodile and Hoge's have exactly the same skin!"

haha! Still surprises me that no-one can quote the most (supposedly) famous line from the film correctly:

"That's not a knife. THAT's a knife!"

It seems to be stuck in the public's minds that he said "THIS is a knife". *shrug*
