Didn't realise RB was considered ugly. He ain't my cup of tea but I thought he had a ragged appeal.

Seventies children’s TV series RentaGhost is to be turned into a big-budget Hollywood film starring Russell Brand.
The comic will play Fred Mumford, a newly-dead slacker who wants to be more productive in the afterlife, so sets up a temp agency hiring out other spirits.
Warner Bros has acquired the rights to the BBC1 comedy show and is said to be developing the idea into a Beetlejuice-style comedy.

I always thought Rentaghost was shit, even when I was eight. Liked the theme music though.

They could get Snoop to do the theme tune for the reboot, particularly the line "freaks and fools".

Whatever charms he may possess (and I'm not sure there are any), I can't get past the grating reediness of his voice. Fuckin' makes Dave Davies sound like Barry White.

The more I hear people bang on about kindles, the more I think I fucked up by getting a sony reader, even tho I do love it and think it's awesome. The lack of wifi fills me with jealousy. And it suffers even worse than the kindle in the makes-you-look-a-twat stakes.

Seriously, why should we give a toss what this fey idiot thinks about the riots?
"For one thing, policemen are generally pretty good fighters and second, it registered that the accent they shouted at me with was closer to my own than that of some of those singing about the red flag making the wall of plastic shields between us seem thinner."
Really? I cannot picture the members of the met sounding like music-hall fop. "You're under arrest, ooh me winkie's a right bad 'un"
Can't stand the guy, does it show?

Fops, plural.
― Proger, Friday, 12 August 2011 02:51 (thirteen years ago) link
i suppose what he meant, and what you know he meant, was that generally a lot of far-leftists are posh cunts while polis are more likely to be working class.
― you've got male (jim in glasgow), Friday, 12 August 2011 02:57 (thirteen years ago) link
I know what he meant, was just trying to get a dig in. All the "expert" comentary gets me down. Actually my brother trained as a stage actor and is now in the met, so he may well patrol in a music hall manner, lol hoisted by my own petard, or rather my brother's.

I really liked him when he was hosting BBBM, but then I saw his real persona in interviews (oh oh I know everything there is to know about the aaaaaart of comedy oh oh) and went right the fuck off him.

Being 'rambling and weird' (in his sort of fairly strained and uninteresting version of weird) is what he does though isn't it? I don't hate the guy but I've never got his appeal either.
― Bees Against Racism (Tom D.), Wednesday, 19 June 2013 11:48 (eleven years ago) link
Obv. this sort of (US) TV show is not the usual forum for his shtick though. When did he start dressing like David Essex?
― Bees Against Racism (Tom D.), Wednesday, 19 June 2013 11:51 (eleven years ago) link
they call him willy and the one dude says, "yeah, i really can't understand this guy when he talks"! i'm not sure what he was supposed to do with that, even if he had attempted to play along. it's not artie on joe buck but he went in on them.
i never got the appeal either but recently i really sort of liked him on norm macdonald's show. the concept of his new show, which he got a chance to explain to norm, sounded horrible, though.
― dylannn, Wednesday, 19 June 2013 11:55 (eleven years ago) link
i did not realise until this thing broke that in the US it isn't considered rude to refer to someone who's in front of you by a third-person pronoun rather than addressing them directly.
