Charlie Brooker is indeed capable of creating some of the best TV around.
No, No, No – he forgot the cute pets and the little children! And he calls himself a real fake journalist – hah.
I tell you my thoughts on your post, and then I follow with a joke. By doing this, I’m able to pretend that I have friends of my own.
And after the obligatory posting of the news story in a popular blog, commenters post messages of approval or disapproval or sometimes something completely unrelated.
very few people can express the truth about TV production like Charlie Brooker. He should be required viewing in high school IMO. That would single handedly force the industry to grow as the audience’s taste matured.
Anyone that can be so entertaining while sitting on a couch and watching TV is talented.
