Overview

I'm starting to worry about Two and a Half Men. OK, it's never been as good this season, but the early episodes held out a little promise, Judith, Evelyn and Berta were all popping up, not regularly, but popping up. But lately all three seem to have disappeared as it slowly becomes the Ashton Kutcher show. Jake has barely registered and Alan is becoming more craven and unsavoury with every passing episode. I never really subscribed to the doctrine that it was Charlie Sheen's show, when Two and a Half Men worked best, it was an ensemble piece, with a dis-functional family at its heart. The way the new season is going it is more about Walden and Big Suze from Peep Show. The thing I like most about Two and a Half Men, at the moment, is that Mos Eisley poster on the wall.

 

After watching this week's Geordie Shore I am becoming more convinced there isn't a show, on the telly, that would not be improved by adding Vicky. What a joy she would be on the panel of Britain's Got Talent or Strictly. In fact let's kick the Queen and Kate off of that Diamond Jubilee tour and put Vicky in there instead. Just imagine rows of people extending their hands only to be called 'Bell ends' and 'Knob heads' for no apparent reason.

 

I don't think any of us who suffered gamely through it was shocked to hear of the cancellation of Terra Nova. It was a great idea, but making it a cute, family friendly show killed it stone dead. In fact Terra Nova was so twee that the only dinosaur missing was Barney.
