Hannibal "Contorno" Review

7/4/2015

Let’s start this Hannibal review on a humorous observation - because my lord we need it with this kind of series. Between cannibal puns where, if people were paying attention, saw Hannibal Lecter flat out admit that he is a murdering chef to the gag reel, the show is despairing people and gory bits so it’s natural to want a little bit of comedy into our show. Like some rigid comedy routine, have any of you noticed that Jack never pays for his own drinks? What’s that all about? He always seems to be chewing on some delicious chow made by someone else. Does the man not know how to cook?

Well - maybe not. But whilst he isn’t able to cook-ass. He is able to kick-ass.

It's hard to imagine all our favourite comedy stars as teenage camp counsellors but back in 2001, they all gathered to deliver a raucous, hysterical cult spoof and did it so well that it accumulated a large fanbase. Excitingly, Wet Hot American Summer returns to our screens with a prequel series looking at the first day of camp. Which means that all your favourite comedy stars return as teenage camp counsellors only this time they are 14 years older and somehow are supposed to be younger.

Outlander "Wentworth Prison" Review

7/3/2015

There is something so sinisterly enthralling about villainous characters that, if done well, gift excellence to a television show. Like the romping Hannibal that illuminates his television show, evil characters are pivotal if they are fleshed out with realism. This is where Outlander and Game of Thrones separates. For example, with Ramsey Bolton, you can loathe him but he is a cartoon character of depravity and rage, set to exert the power shock towards the audience. With Captain Jack Randall, whose similar modus operandi causes alarm for fans, there is a sickening reason and poetic rhyme and reason to his work that fleshes him out as the beast he is - and not merely a device for us to loathe.

As we enter in to the darker elements of Outlander with the penultimate episode, we know exactly the lengths Randall will go to catch and break his prey.

Tim Hincks - BAFTA Television Lecture

7/2/2015

“You’re obviously like me, when it’s a hot, warm night you think, ‘lecture,’ so thank you very much for joining me.” Tim Hincks begins as people have settled down into their seats, feeling a little drenched with sweat and clutching themselves closer so the packed auditorium doesn’t fill with unpleasant smells. As the sun beats down in London, most people would be loosening their ties and springing nearby to Green Park. Instead, us industry types wanted to bask in the intelligence, humour and wit of Tim Hincks - President of the Endemol Shine Group.
