Hoorah!
Question - is FS good with 2 players?
Back on topic (it's not so late this time, so I'm still awake) - What is your favourite TV show Fryguy? - the one that had its second series start (as you noted)?
BTW - do you Euros have the show "Lost"?
It premiered here in AU last night, and boy did I like it - just wondering if it's over in EU, and what any Americans around here think of it, if in fact you have seen it...

Question - is FS good with 2 players? Meh. I played it in two-player mode for the first time last night. It was okay, not great. Four player is the only way to go for the REAL fun. Or three player is good, too. But anything below that kinda loses the 'magic'. |

With two players I got a taste of what four players might be like. I wish I had more Game Boy owning friends to play it with, but I had to make do with two.
The programme was Look Around You... now approximately 2.5 times longer and with a different format... but the same crazy sense of humour. Monday nights... check it if you get BBC2.

Haven't heard of it before...
Is it British comedy, or American?
(I ask mainly because I find British humourr to be a real crack-up - they can be very funny people).
I have BBC News, but I doubt it plays comedy shows...
Although, I could check out the UKTV channel we also have... (cut to dog wit shifty eyes).
Anyways, i ask about FS as I plan on picking it up (no Zelda collection would be complete without it), and I know 1 person who wants a GBA SP, and I guess I might be able to play FS with him every now and then...

Brits are naturally more funny than Americans. I've found every single American remake of a British sitcom I've seen to be increbibly lame, yet I can't keep myself from laughing at the British versions, even when they have identical scripts.
Rock on Ricky Gervais.
Why isn't there a laughing smilie?

It's a BBC comedy spoofing old 1980s science education programming.
Each episode of the first series was only 10 minutes long, but it was the funniest thing on TV at the time. They were more like the science shows I got shown at school when I was young... narrated throughout by an elderly gentleman, blue labs, and you never saw the scientist's faces (well... except during the episode on music).
The second series has been given a half hour slot and the format has changed completely. Now it's more like those 1980's shows that tried to make science "cool". There's an all-new cast of presenters (played by the same people who did the scientists in the first series), with guest stars, music slots and all that... all made up, of course.
The first episode of the new series was about "What music will we be listening to in the year 2000"... judged by the ghost of Tchaichovsky. Or, as the joke runs...
"Thanks Tchaichovsky...... Thankovsky!"
But it is brilliant. Watch it... though I expect you'll only get it on BBC2... I don't know if it'll be shipped onto BBC America or any other "UK TV" channels for America.

Well I'm in Australia, not America... but I do get what you're saying. ;D
I'll keep an eye out for it.

Oh right, TODAY is Monday... *slaps forehead* I looked out for it on TV last night... seeing Never Mind The Buzzcocks on tricked me into thinking it was Monday. I really need to go back to college so I can keep track of the week again...  |
