  1. On The Box 78 – The Netflix Swingers Party

    On The Box 78 – The Netflix Swingers Party

    Apparently changing the name from The Million Pound Drop to The 100K Drop has nothing to do with Brexit the devaluation of the pound. In other news, the feud between AMC and Frank Darabont gets a little worse and it’s now a federal crime in the US to share your password for any subscription service – including things like Netflix. This week we’ve been watching The Crystal Maze, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers Season 1, volume 1. #TheCrystalMaze #TheHandmaidsTale #MargaretAttwood #MightyMorphinPowerRangers

    On The Box 77 - Biscuits, The Queen of Sheba

    It’s the last show on our old-style TV, but we’ll be back in the near future with a shiny new flat-screen. In the meantime we’ve got The Witcher, Ladiators (that’s not a misspelling), and Star Trek’s version of Game of Thrones. This week we’ve been watching American Gods, The Keith & Paddy Picture Show and The Fake News Show. #AmericanGods #TheKeithAndPaddyPictureShow #TheFakeNewsShow #OnTheBox #Television #TheGeekShow #News #Reviews #TV #Comedy #Podcasts

    On The Box 76 - Superheroes of Eurovision

    Our nerves are shaken and our brains are rattled with fake news, Runaways, Inhumans, sexy remakes of religious dramas, musicals, training camps and Great Balls of Fire – the new WWE pay-per-view. This week we’ve been watching Line of Duty, Lethal Weapon and Don’t Ask Me, Ask Britain. #LineOfDuty #LethalWeapon #DontAskMeAskBritain #OnTheBox #Television #TheGeekShow #News #Reviews #TV #Comedy #Podcasts

    On The Box 75 - Addicted to the Special Meat

    While Sony Pictures pick up the TV adaptation of Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series, Netflix decide to capitalise on the nostalgia for ‘90s kids shows and also announce a decidedly Western reboot of an old Chinese TV series. This week we’ve been watching Peter Kay’s Car Share, Lemony Snickett’s A Series of Unfortunate Events and The League of Gentlemen. #PeterKay #CarShare #LemonySnickett #ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents #TheLeagueOfGentlemen #OnTheBox #Television #TheGeekShow #News #Reviews #TV #Comedy #Podcasts

    On The Box 74 - Death By Corgi

    Television might hit the fan as the Writer’s Guild of America announce a possible strike. Aside from that Ed Sheeran gets a cameo on Game of Thrones, Saturday Night Live do some adverts, and Big Brother gets a reboot? This week we’ve been watching All Round to Mrs. Brown’s, the new series of The Last Kingdom, and M.A.S.H. #AllRoundToMrsBrowns #TheLastKingdom #MASH #OnTheBox #Television #TheGeekShow #News #Reviews #TV #Comedy #Podcasts

    On The Box 73 - The Great British Chuckle-Off

    So Assassin’s Creed gets a TV series, the NFL are changing their rules on adverts, Noel Fielding is going to be a host of Bake-Off and there’s a second attempt at a US version of Top Gear. We’re still not sure which of those could be classed as actual good news ... This week we’ve been watching The Gadget Show, Hollyoaks and SS GB. #TheGadgetShow #Hollyoaks #SS_GB #OnTheBox #Television #TheGeekShow #News #Reviews #TV #Comedy #Podcasts
