The way Digital Spy has become such a failed site, removing articles that had been there for years and packing in General Discussion for no reason. The site’s practically unusable these days.

Lots of effort to get socks on, only to stand up after adding your shoes, and feeling that tiny bit of grit that's in your sock.

Sadly every Forum is feeling the pinch a little bit.

DS and TIBB are both doing well to still be around tbh.

When the news keep picking at one particular story so we hardly hear anything-else for the longest time. Okay, we get it. That’s an IT outage for t’time-being. Let’s hear other news while we’re waiting.

People having to resort to manual got a minute while the electronics are down? Well, boo-hoo. Poor them.

Maybe, but neither of these forums have helped themselves with some of the ludicrous decisions they’ve made over the years. I’m not going to defend that.

The Simpsons becoming more-and-more unsubtle in their jokes, almost to the Family Guy’s extent. Both shows are funny for distinctly different reasons and that’s how it should’ve stayed. But The Simpsons has been veering in that direction more and more since the end of, like, season 16 and it’s reached a point where it’s actually quite odious. Still a good show but some of the forced politically-incorrect humour needs to take a backseat. I don’t like it.

When you’re making a ’phone-call and your ’phone freezes and makes it hard for you to navigate other apps unless you press the side-button (which then cancels the call).

I do that with my go to sleep go to podcasts (usually Ricky stephen and karl) have it all set up on my phone lights off, head on pillow..Then Gervais let's out a really loud guffaw at something karl pilkington has said.


So I reach over in the dark for the volume button, but hot the off button instead. It's like the godfather movies, never heard or seen any of them all once.

I think that all of the outrageous and politically incorrect Animated Comedies have all gone on too long.

We need new ones to be made, but I doubt that America would have the guts to make new funny Animated Comedy Shows.

Those clips are funny.

I've never heard of the Show before, but I will definitely add it to my shortlist of next Shows to watch.

When six violent dangerous criminals who were part of a gang who commited the same crime - instead of telling us their individual sentences ranged from 10 years to 17 years - the media will report that the gang were jailed for a total of 124 years.

Absolutely a stupid headline. Totalling up single sentences to get one figure - gives the initial impression they won't get out of jail until 2148.

They do that to cover up the fact that the individual sentences that were handed out weren't good enough.

It's atrocious tbh, but it's typical Media reporting in this country.

The way Lois Griffin’s voice can be so nasally can be a real pain in the arse, I’m not gonna lie.

Their marriage is inexplicable and Peter’s practically the worst protagonist a show can have. Even though I like him in a silly kind of way (he’s funny, like), he’s actually a terrible person.

The fact that with all the mobile-updates that take place every 5 minutes, ITVX remains so user-unfriendly unless you pay Premium.

No but the fact that the likes of Peter of all people think conniving mastermind Stewie’s just a dumb baby.
