I Am A Swede

O sweet Jesus, this is going to be much, much worse than I could ever imagine. This was supposed to be an official part of Amazon's marketing to entice viewers to see their show....but they had to unlist it on Youtube, because they were getting slaughtered in the comments. Something that is completely understandable. These are, according to Amazon, Tolkien "superfans" () that were invited to a private screening of a teaser trailer, and their reactions afterwards. This video should come with a warning label though. It made me want to wash my eyes with bleach.....

The more I read (and see) about this I become more and more convinced that it will be a disaster. It might look good, but storywise it will be a complete disaster....

^^ I know! To call it ridiculous would be an understatement!

Well.... I found this list and....wow, I don't know what to say....... The top ten episodes that defined Yorkshire's iconic Emmerdale as voted by you

Uh-oh...... Langya: New virus infects 35 people in eastern China

Regarding one of the spoilers....

I should have known..... But since it is the 50th anniversary I actually did think they might do something special. I can't even muster up the energy to get mad. I just feel tired, deflated and emotionally numb.

Ooh, that sounds promising about Jean.... As far as the documentary goes, I'm gonna make a concession.... although I personally would love it if it concentrated only on the "Farm"-years, I have to concede that that would be unfair. After all, the show is celebrating its 50th anniversary and it was only named Emmerdale Farm for 17 of those years. That's only about a third of the time. If you look at episodes the numbers are even more damning. Last Friday episode 9434 aired, and only the first 1402 went out under the Emmerdale Farm name. But in my defence those first 1402 episodes were 10 times better than those that have followed!

Good to see that Brooke for once remembered she actually has a brain and used it. It will probably not last long though.....

To be perfectly blunt it's about time. Let's hope that this makes Roger Federer realize that his time is up as well. They've both given us lots of fantastic moments over the years, but clearly neither of them is anywhere near the players they once were.
