Adam Buxton's BUG on Sky Atlantic (& now Sky Arts)

[fish heads]

Watched this on catchup the other day - it really was excellent wasn't it. Agree with all the comments that it was just too short. Looking forward to the rest of the series

[daremo]

Haha. Nice spot! Didn't notice Bad Dad at all there until now.

aaa....us silly southerners have been seeing that video for a few months now so we're totally over the "ooow look, it's baaaddad".

It's lovely that he still includes him in his work.....I guess it was shot down in Kent/Sussex or somewhere easy for him to get to. Damn.....I think Adam's mentioned where that was filmed somewhere. My short-term memory is rubbish.

You know there's an amusing 'behind the scenes' clip at the Sky site too? I was hoping they'd have a similar film )to the one Hobbsy linked) every week for each new director

Just noticed that Adam's Events page doesn't list eps 5 - 8 in August. This may be an act of endearing caution on his part but let's hope we do get to see them all consecutively.

In case you hadn't spotted this in the other threads, Adam has put his two latest song videos on his YouTube channel.

With thanks to our lovely member, Swaddon - Sky Atlantic have Behind the Scenes for Party Pom Pom.

Don't forget Adam uploads each new music video seven days after it first airs on Sky.

Adam posted his final video this morning. I haven't had time in a private enough place to watch it but I'm wondering if the delay was due to him wanting to make some last minute tweaks, as he directed this one.
Look out for BaadDad and Sif.

There's a little recap of the memes & whatnot here

BUG is being repeated on Sky Atlantic at the moment.

They started with episode 2 last night, omitting ep 1 as they deemed the Is Tropical vid from The Greeks insensitive in the light of the school shootings.

Check the timings here.

[fugsags]

I'm glad to see an explanation of the first show's omission, but still annoyed as it's the one I've seen least, having missed it first time around.

Understandable decision, absolutely... but saying that, how long does it take for something stop being "too soon"? I'm a little surprised a late-night repeat of a relatively niche show with a single small element related to the issue is being cut altogether over a fortnight after the tragic events.

Episode 1 is on YouTube.

Or if Sky's lawyers are reading, it isn't.
