Game of Throners

Callan | June 27th, 2011

So everyone seems to be obsessing over Game of Thrones because of its taboo exploitative nature. The problem with most of the other medieval drama series’ (Borgias, Tudors etc.) is that they don’t say contemporary dirty words like the “F” word, or expressions like “who is your daddy now slave woman?” (not actually spoken to my knowledge), and the sex, even if forced and somewhat psychological, doesn’t have that really twisted sleazy vibe that makes it 2011.

Broadcast daily between 00h00 – 05h00, SABC1′s Music Lounge features a wide range of local music videos.

The Bizzaro TV That Made Me

Lee | May 31st, 2011

Twin Peaks: iconic, artful television.

I don’t know how or why I came to love Northern Exposure in sixth grade, but I did.  It is the story of a New York doctor who finds himself in a practice in small town Alaska.  Later in life when I encountered Twin Peaks (I was much too young for that scary stuff when it was on the air) it made perfect sense to me that Northern Exposure was a toned down version of that warped Lynchian perspective I came to love.
