Screenwipe Returns
Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe is an overlooked gem that returns BBC4 10pm Tues 25th.
Each week the show peaks behind the glamorous curtain of the wonderful world of TV, and reviews a couple of noteworthy shows, but in a brilliantly, hilariously cutting fashion.
Brooker seems to spookily echo my own tastes which helps ripping the pee out of soaps, reality TV and fake psychic shows whenever possible. Ironically, the show itself is far better written than most of the shows it covers.
Hardly anyone I know of has heard of the show, let alone watches it. This is partly due to it surfacing for 3 or 4 editions every few months then vanishing again.
This week they turn their attention on Heroes, love it or hate it? Tune in and give it a try.
