TV obsesions 'n things

[clairebear_nz]

I must draw everyone's attention to this. It is from the 70s/80s, from Australia and is called Patrol Boat.

Does it give everyone else the same vibes it gives me?

Aside from that, life is good. I'm home for the uni holidays, and some

Oh Patrol Boat. I'm still amused by how the comments on youtube say it's more realistic than Sea Patrol...I certainly hope that the Navy isn't really like that! It would be so funny to see an actual episode of that.

Fringe is such a mind-screwer, it's so good though but yeah just fucked. Yay for Monarch of the Glen and Archie!

So do I! Did they fail to notice the guy in a blonde wig and bikini hanging around in the background? It would be so great to see an actual episode to see if they did anything except just hanging around shirtless, flirting with each other.

Fringe seriously fucked us up. It was damned funny! MoTG/Archie so doesn't screw you over as much. It's Scottish. And pretty.

Maybe guys in blonde wigs and bikinis are normal in the navy? they seem to enjoy their wigs in the navy. It would be! I so can't imagine those guys running around with guns doing anything. They really do love any excuse to take off their shirts.

It really really did. MoTG is such a simple show, it's just really fun, apart form Katrina being a fuckwit.

OMFG hilarious!Other than all the brilliantly gay innuendo, I really love that they managed to leave that guy behind on the beach.

Also, we are finding a full episode of this to watch when I am down there! Especially if we're drinking at the same time i'm pretty sure it would be the funniest thing in the world! hahaha

It almost scares me how the XO and the CO are flirting with each other. Especially coz the XO looks like Hodgins gone Unabomber. And yes! They ditched the guy! And people kept talking about "duties" and eyeing each other up.

Did you see the guy in the back of one of the shots, wearing a blonde wig and a bikini?

I don't think there ARE full episodes as it never made it to DVD. However, I will make you watch the Stingers episode with John Noble which is hilarious and traumatising, especially Peter and Stoney oggling chicks while discussing Stoney's missing left testicle.

Lol yeah I did see the wig guy.

It's probably a good thing it didn't make it to DVD really. I'll settle for Stingers. Even if it does traumatise me for the rest of my life! =P

Explaining an X-Files obsession to your parents is bad enough, but Patrol Boat? Then again, Mum finds my Sea Patrol obsession hilarious.

Stingers really is kind of awesome. The first season is....really rather bogan at times.
