Cable pains

Posted by Matthew McEwen

So we just got satellite cable (with the fancy on-screen guide) and even though there's a ratio of Hindi/Bollywood/Asian/and other non-English channels to ENGLISH channels of 20:1. We get CNN, BBC World, Discovery, a bizarre version of Nick, and a HBO that seems to play mostly B-movies, made for TV movies, and after-school specials pretending to be movies (the even sadder fact being that they actaully have "the making of" shows for many of the later (I did watch The Making of Merlin: good stuff)).

I return to my original thought: Which was ..we do get VH1 (the MTV is painful to watch as they constantly switch between English and Hindi and they primarily show Bollywood) and this morning I was subjected to complete horror (link below) and honestly could not tear myself away. Watch then rate!

1. They have managed to get all the greatest 90's dances moves into the video.
2. Watch that kick in at 1:08!
3. It's sad to say it does have Beatle-ish sound to it.
4. Go Hammer! or Millie Vanillie?
   
5. If you are watching this in Dhaka sorry that we can't stream video (go 64kbs!)
