Podge and Rodge - Saturation Point
Not content with presenting music award shows and presenting their own talk show several times a week, we now get these greasy Podge and Rodge delights.
What started with as a refreshingly different, ten minute show on Network 2 every week has now exploded in an attempt to milk the Podge and Rodge concept dry. I thought the scripted short story format suited Podge and Rodge well. The transition to improv however hasn't suited the talk show well. Too much recycling of clapped out gags and awful Z-list guests promoting their latest bit of unwanted tat. Who would have thought that the original pilot (DVD-rip by the way) would have spawned all this?
Keep flogging the crisps, bed clothes and dolls lads, it won't take long for people to get their fill.
