Catfish: season 5, episode 7 recap: "Ray and Lexi"
TV Feature | Becky Suter | 30th April 2016
This week, Nev and Max met with 19-year-old Ray, who had never met his online girlfriend of four years, even though they only lived a few hours away from each other. Jesus, do we have to go through this sort of thing AGAIN? Why are the youth of today so stupid? Remember when it was batshit mental online vigilantes trying to catch out cheating boyfriends? I'm starting to suspect people are only applying to go on Catfish to get a free stay in an Airbnb. Unless there's a mid-century Scandi furniture craze sweeping the nation and a country-wide sale on off-white paint, something (cat)fishy is definitely going on.

Found under the couch #1: Fist of Fun
TV Feature | Kirsty Harrison | 25th July 2011
We've been moving the furniture around, here at the lair. You're never going to believe what we found under the couch; an undetermined amount of videos of shows that we liked from the past! I know, right, how cool? Up this week, Lee and Herring's big TV break: Fist of Fun.

Masters of Sex opening credits: a journey into innuendo
TV Feature | Iain Robertson | 12th December 2013
What exactly is Masters of Sex about? I attempted to work it out from the opening credits.

Catfish: season 5, episode 9 recap: "Tyreme and Tomorrow"
TV Feature | Becky Suter | 8th May 2016
Sadly there are no warring lesbians in this week's catch-up, but there is a woman called Tomorrow, and Nev and Max try to determine someone's identity from sonogram pictures. They're that good.

Catfish: season 4, episode 1 recap: "Miracle and Javonni"
TV Feature | Becky Suter | 4th March 2015
Oh Catfish, how I've missed you. Monday nights just weren't the same without the overwhelming eroticism that is the bromance between co-hosts Nev Schulman and Max Joseph. And now it's back, but in a shocking format twist Max is out of action for six episodes making a film with his new BFF Zac Efron. Nev seems cool with it but I know he's just as upset as I am. Fuck Efron and his quiffy hair.

Catfish: season 5, episode 6 recap: "Michael and Chanelle"
TV Feature | Becky Suter | 17th April 2016
I'm starting to feel like Nev is trying to drop subtle hints to Max about his disappearing act. After Max went on "holiday" now we have an actual ghost Catfish. Watch closely and you can see Nev slyly give Max the side-eye as they discuss this week's case of a catfish who suddenly disappeared and ceased all contact. When I eventually start my blog/self-help book (publishers are interested), I'm going to dedicate a whole chapter to "They're Not Dead, They're Avoiding You."

Interview: Red Dwarf's Chris Barrie and Robert Llewellyn
TV Feature | Matt Looker | 5th October 2012
To promote the new series of Red Dwarf, the good folk at Dave allowed me some time with Chris Barrie and Robert Llewellyn (Rimmer and Kryten, as if you didn't already know) to ask them all manner of things 'Dwarf'. Upon arrival, I was a little sad to see they weren’t actually wearing prosthetic masks or a plastic 'H', but then I was wearing a t-shirt and a hoodie so I couldn’t really blame them for not making an effort.

The eight best things Jason Biggs said at an Orange is the New Black Q&A
TV Feature | Ed Williamson | 3rd June 2014
Last week I went to a screening of Orange is the New Black season two's first episode. It was predictably great, as I'll outline in a review soon once I've deciphered the notes I made on a torn-up bit of an Ibuprofen packet having forgotten to bring a notepad. #journalism But the real joy of it was the Q&A featuring Jason Biggs.

19 people who are FURIOUS that everyone keeps calling her "Khaleesi"
TV Feature | Ed Williamson | 10th April 2014
Something about it being her title not her name, from what I can gather? Mainly in capital letters.
