Dave Gorman - Modern life is good-ish

Yes he does somewhat drag out each aspect.

But I did laugh at the Make-Up advert that asked 99 people, or as he put it, didn't even adhere to the rigorous standards of family fortunes......

It has potential to be a very good show!

New series on Dave, currently talking about shredding porn mags

[monthefish]

Thanks.

[Jasandjules]

And the camera bit, I wonder if that was actually true!

[Northbloke]

Yep, really like this observational humour.

Well scripted and like the way he ties all the threads together.

A good antidote to the Usual Suspects laughing at each other's jokes on "quiz" shows.

New series started. Use of the word Porn, and the wonder of daytime TV that is Homes Under The Hammer

I enjoyed the episode with the money in envelopes and the poundshop observations - indeed I popped in one today and they are very true!

It was a bit laboured though.

Anyone see the new one tonight?
I wonder if he's still on speaking terms with Mickeypedia

[Iva Barchetta]

I had tv on but also internet so attention was shared.

Quite enjoy his stuff.

Didn't see that thread, just read through it

[Baron Greenback]

CTF's thread got a mention too.

One of the best episodes ever. Gorman must spend longer writing 5 minutes of his show than some people spent on that trolling quiz.

[Northbloke]

Yes, really like him anyway but that was one of his best episodes. And yes I spent half an hour on that music quiz.

Think it's really clever how he links all the different parts of the show together: "Superb Stalin" and that Knowles bloke! Haha.

Very refreshing humorous change to all the "right-on" comedy shows.

So now we know he reads Pistonheads should we have a competition to see who can get a quote into one of his "poems".

NP&E would be gold for Found Poem. I've just tweeted him to check it out if he needs inspiration

As well as being funny, he is also the best user of PowerPoint I've ever seen. Every single manager who is given a laptop and a copy of PowerPoint should be forced to watch every episode before creating their first presentation.

I used an example of one of his earlier shows (Think it was called 'I am Dave Gorman', he tried to find 100 people called Dave Gorman for a bet) in a Powerpoint training session I ran about 12 years ago!

Yes, not sure whether I should be proud or ashamed - the post he read out about spending a few days looking through the Guinness Book of Hit Singles was, er, me. But I didn't mean solid days, honest.
