Spaced

Mandi-chan · 07-11-2005, 09:26 AM

I recently discovered that my dvd player is capable of playing all regions, after finding out that it has a code to turn it into a region 0. So, to test it out I bought the Next Mutation dvds (haven't come in the mail yet) and a british comedy called SPACED that my mom kept hearing about on her Buffy boards.

"Spaced revolves around two idle twentysomething flatemates-immature skateboarding would-be-comic artist Tim (Simon Pegg), and moody, responsibility-shy writer Daisy (Jessica Stevenson), and their self-induced lack of success in employment, relationships and life in general. Together with their oddball assortment of friends and neighbors: Marsha, Brian, Mike, and Twist, they exsist in a world perched precariously on the edge of normality."

I thinks it's really funny so far, and very odd. Have any of you heard of it or seen it?

Seen all the episodes and it's such a funny show

I won't quote any of it in case it spoils it for you, but all the episodes are excellent! A lot of the actors from it are in Shawn Of The Dead (Tim, Daisy, Mike, etc).

A great British show. More foreign people need to see it.

It has so many pop culture references and a lot of Episode I pisstakes.

My favourite bit has to be the imaginary gunfights, especially when it figures in the story later on.
