Trump is so fucking depressing, seeing some of his worst transgressions lumped together in a short space of time was awful, and to think he's going to president of the United States. Fuck me. He actually makes make my skin crawl, which I thought was something you just see written down for dramatic effect, but it turns out it's really a thing. Me and Mrs Hearthly were watching the programme together and were united in disgust. (Jnr was asleep upstairs on a rare early night.)
The only aspect of the episode I found a bit weak were the telly review segments (which I appreciate get their lineage from Screenwipe), I mean, Eastenders, really? Does anyone still watch that? (Not that I ever watched it anyway.)
But yes, good telly, anything by Charlie Brooker I really look forward to, basically.
Pretty much
.
Just now watched it, and yes very funny and such but, as you say, seeing all the Trump stuff together like that is awfully depressing.
And to think 2017 is certain to be massively worse in literally every way.
Still, Happy New Year, etc, if you're a weirdo who says things like that and thinks it might be.
