This weeks episode had me in tears, it was SO funny, When simon amstell was messing with the ugly guys hair my sides were aching. it was just hillarious.

I watched the repeat on Saturday I cannot remember a funnier Buzzcocks episode. I was literally on the floor laughing. Very, very funny. I couldn't breathe at one point!

What the hell made them bring in that death farmer?! Apart from literally just taking the pee outta him!

Thanks!

It's a shame the website doesn't show the funny farmer line-up dude. no one by any chance happens to have a screenshot of him or anything do they? Long shot I know... but if someone found him I detect some Photoshopping to be done...!

Is it just me that thinks this has gone massively downhill

I used to watch it 2 years ago ish, mark lamarr, bill bailey, phil jupitus etc... and it was decent tv, i put it on a month or two ago, and phil jupitus has grown a quiff of some sort and his manner seems to have changed, new host (who i thought sucked) and the whole thing seems poor to me :confused:

Nothing beats the old shooting stars though...

Vic & bob, mark lamarr, ulrikakakaa and matt lucas :cool:

Dude, if anything went downhill it was Shooting Stars. I remember a while ago they repeated it (or was it new episodes? :confused:

) and it was absolutely dire. Just stupid, unfunny and repetitive. I used to like it!

Buzzcocks on the other hand is excellent. I'd be perfectly happy to let Simon Amstell carry on hosting even if the greaseball Lamarr wants to come back. I much prefer Amstell's sense of humour.

lol loved the outtakes, will be watching all the repeats, always been a great show.

They really should release a dvd of all the seasons, I would lap it up in a second

Mark Lamaar was far, far better, in almost every way. Disapointed.

arc_of_time_ · 5 Feb 2007 at 18:22

Simon Amstell is quite good, but hes not in same league as Mark Lamaar. Them days of never mind the buzzcocks were the best.

Simon always seems to play on the whole gay sorta joke, a few too many times.

Simon's awesome

They were new episodes, and yes, they did suck :rolleyes:

At least they knew it got bad... NMTB keeps on trucking

What did everyone think to that? I think that Lamarr would have ate that donny bloke for breakfast, althought Simon did have some quality moments, especially dressing that guy up with the shades.

+44

i thaught it was pretty good

especially targeting donny for most of the jokes

"That's what I think you are"

"What, a small penis?"

Quality episode, I like Noel Fielding too, proper random but funny bloke

They put him on again tonight.

So be ready with the PVR on Saturday.

It'll be a sad day when Buzzcocks gets retired, it's one of the few shows guaranteed to make me laugh and has been doing so for a decade now.

I think Amstell pushes things just too far with his guests. I'm surprised more haven't walked off. Lamarr seemed to tread the line without crossing it.
Preston will be doing a runner next week.

"Donny, Bill is a professional comedian. You're not gonna win."

"What kind of punk dance is that? You're like a small child going hyper on lemonade."

Great show, I love it when arrogant nobbers like that Donny fella who think they are God's gift to everything get roundly trounced by people ten times funnier than they will ever be

sunlitsix · 7 Feb 2007 at 22:55

ive got the show recorded on my HDD, think it would last long on something like youtube?
