Yeah, I think this was originally a Channel 4 documentary in the UK.

They mean 30-minute "episodes". Johnny Test made it to 100 15-minute episodes back in 2010, this will be their 200th or so.

@avclub-7105f7f2eff89eb19fc9014f6baa257a:disqus Not on the podcast, but he is, y'know, an actor.

My only problem with that story is that I wish it had a slightly better ending, but I've no idea what that ending would be.

I tried Satisfaction but switched off during the second episode. The leads were fine, but I hated the overly-cartoony supporting characters.

Yeah, I'd rather they just have her play an original character, like Mantzoukas did this week.

Yup, same. Nice to revisit this show.

Sure, but they didn't take up where they left off talking about the movie after the interview, it seemed to jump ahead to later in the recording.

The editing was really weird, like they recorded it in 90-second chunks and strung it together afterwards.

Last week's How Did This Get Made was weird; did they lose a huge chunk of the episode somehow?

The Womptacular Pool Party was great.

"'Classic' has to mean something after all."

@fineoakstructure:disqus I'm not sure about language, but the BBC aired a much tamer version of The White Queen than airs on Starz in the US, where the sex scenes are more gratuitous.

It's bizarre. I especially like how the some of the contestants sometimes seem to be pretending they're not on a TV show, saying things like "Is this for real?!" and being surprised they're being filmed.

Or in any episode of The Thick of It, ever.

I also like that this was almost certainly written before "Talking Bad" was even a thing.
