Couch Potato – DVDs Out This Week

Couch Potato this week comes to you a day later than usual. The Oscar nominations yesterday knocked me back a bit so I do apologise. We have an interesting if unexceptional line-up this week, but there should be a little something in the sack to suit everyone’s tastes.

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

Tuesday is ordinarily the most depressing day of the week. With that in mind I’ve brought a little something to little up the dour mood, a collection of new DVDs that will keep you entertained right up till the weekend. So forget your boss, your husband/wife/kids, and snuggle up tight with a good glass of [...]

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

Finally 2010 gives us some home movie and television releases worth talking about. With the snow slowly starting to melt around the country it is once again safe to venture outside the door and persue visual treats to bring back to the family.

Ed Byrne – Different Class

I have to admit I am a huge comedy fan. That aside, I got mixed responses to the mention Ed Byrnes new DVD [that I bought in HMV for 10.99] which I found a little surprising…. If you are the type that when Billy Connolly walks out on stage and says hello and you immediately laugh… [...]

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

It’s Tuesday so that means it’s DVD day. We have quite a selection box of treats this week on the DVD front including a major summer blockbuster, an inoffensive if poor kids movie, an atypical Sandra Bullock rom-com and decent horror flick. Also out are two new releases from the BBC in our TV section. [...]

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

Okay folks we are now officially one month out from Christmas. Now the real fun begins with shops opening later and later in an attempt to syphon what meagre earning we have from our pockets. Looking to tempt us into a spending spree this week is a new line-up of shiny goodness for your home [...]

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

It’s Tuesday again friends, a day named for the Norse god Tyr, god of law and war. Whilst we have nothing in our goodie bag on the law side this week, we do have plenty with fighting. Some of those fights are interstellar, some domestic and yet another is within the confines of one man’s [...]

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

Couch Potato is brought to you today by the letters DVD and the colour blue. I love the Muppets, I really do. Unfortunately there are more than a few (of the non-animated variety) in our potato sack today. This week sees a disappointing selection of DVDs hit stores nationwide, and with Christmas around the corner [...]

Robert Pattinson Eat Your Heart Out…

…Chuck Bass is back in town.

The third and latest series of Gossip Girl began a few weeks back on ITV2 on Wednesdays at 8pm and follows the boozing teenage socialites into the college dorm rooms.
After a superb first season but a disappointing second I had high, if cautious hopes for the new episodes. So far [...]

Couch Potato – DVDs out this week

It’s Tuesday, a day the Greeks consider to be an unlucky day. I, on the other-hand, happen to think is really rather lucky, because we get a whole batch of brand new DVDs to watch from the comfort of our own homes.

This particular Tuesday sees the release of a really quite excellent horror film from [...]

Coach Potato – Movies out on DVD this week

Tuesday is the traditional day for movie studios and distributors to line retail and rental outlets with the newest DVD and Bluray releases for you to pick up on your way home. It’s a rather peculiar day but it’s been going on for years now so there’s not much chance of it changing.

This week sees [...]

Guest Post: DVD Killed The TV Star

Some of you guys had really interesting things to say about my last post , and Darren’s comment, along with Amanda’s recent post on upcoming new shows , got me thinking about following it up, but this time taking a look at TV shows, and the effects that the digital age and the internet have had [...]

Competition Closed: Watchmen DVD and Hardback Movie Tie-In

*** Competition Closed ***
*** Congratulations to Tikkin, who has won the Watchmen DVD and Book **
The Watchmen movie is probably the best comic book adaptation there’s been and it’s one of the best films I’ve seen this year. Rick reviewed the film in February:
This is no superhero movie.
This is an adaptation I’ve been waiting [...]

Mad For It – Mad Men, series 2

It’s not all bad being unemployed. There’s plenty of reclining to be done, the final pennies to be spent in the pub, more sitting, more drinking, some abandoned stabs at a new CV and, well, did I mention the sitting? And there’s ‘Mad Men.’

Why So Series: The Wire

“I had such fucking hopes for us.” -McNulty
How do I summarise the The Wire? Well, I can’t.
In the simplest terms, it was so good that I watched all five series in a warm flush of excitement over a period of no more than a five weeks.
Set and produced in Baltimore, I think [...]

DVD Review: He’s Just Not That Into You

It’s just not that good. In fact it’s not good at all. It’s an insufferable bore of a movie.
The women are whiny neurotic stereotypes. The men are 2D drones. I want my 90 minutes back.
Miss!
