The only Underbelly I have watched was Razor. Thought I'd give Squizzy a go last night after watching half an hour of Ripper Street and finding that boring. Squizzy was 10 times worse.

Wish I had.
Stopped after four episodes of Razor as it was really peeing me off how they were incorporating modern attitudes into a series that was supposed to be set in the late 20's. Personally CGAFF that TV/Film is now expected to portray people in a certain way - it detracts from the whole idea of portraying the past.

I thought the first episode was all right. According to friends overseas it takes a couple of episodes for the show to get going.

Did I imagine it, or did they show that Slide Show crap twice today - once straight after the Geelong/Port game, then late tonight..

How they base the premise of a show on the same thing, surely its gets tired aftet the firdt time they do it in the first episode.

But then they show people 2 people spelling out letters/words by putying their bodies in different shapes - ehay the hell is wrong with channel 7, it would be more entertaining if they brought back "Double Dare".

They seemed to have the rights for some half decent shows, too, well at least ones I think that would rate ok, such as "Thank God You're Here", and "Pictures of You". Not sure why they wouldn just show them instead of this Slide crap.

No, you didn't imagine it.

Yes, they repeated a repeat on the same day.

This really wasn't so bad after all...
