2005 TV on DVD Viewing Log

So this is the year for the Complete and Utter History of Britain, Twice a Fortnight, Broaden Your Mind and We Have Ways of Making You Laugh (with the insufficiently short Frank Muir.)

Somewhere out there is a version of The Taming of the Shrew directed by Jonathan Miller with John Cleese as Petruchio and written by some guy named Shakespeare (evidently bertie thinks he's quite good... that is if you want to deal with a three-suited knave.) I have no idea how icubaji found it.

If I can find a copy of those, sure! I actually had said "Taming of the Shrew" out from the local library once but had to return it before watching it. Wouldn't you know, I haven't seen it on shelf since. Someone must've pinched it! I should move it up my Netflix queue.

Speaking of Netflix, my selections this weekend include "Doctor Who: City of Death" with a cameo by a rather tall lad. I think I'll go watch it now..

brandylee2404/27/2006

Yay for Doctor Who!! Are you enjoying the new series?

jenesaisoz04/28/2006

The Eccleston year, very much so. I haven't seen any David Tennant yet, though. Here's hoping the Sci-Fi Channel picks up Christmas Invasion and the 2nd series!

Wezzo09/04/2006

A Bit of Fry & Laurie, eh? Enjoying it?

jenesaisoz09/04/2006

Very much so! It's quickly jumped into my top 5.
