And his replacements are rubbish and not due the [rofessional respect he seems to think he has to pay them.
Tho he is wrong on points of fact from time to time, such as with some film he made reference to a few weeks ago featuring Dolph Lundgren. It, in fact, 5b4does not. -

I agree, Mayo is the problem though. On Friday Mark had three films to review in the last five minutes and all we got was Mayo clowning and holding up the reviews that I listen for. Fire Mayo please BBC.

No, Kermode is as much to blame. And there are too many things squeezed in toward th eend. They should have giests more rarely and use the show for it's stated purpose. They have just said they will talk film today, after they have stoppeed covering racist and scottish footballers. They will be getting another text from me to remind them of that shortly.

To Tokyofist I 100% agree with your rant. All that plus a general air of smugness (well smugger then when they started). Have been a fan for ages but I'm just a bit fed up now. Time for a rummage round itunes me thinks for a different review program.

Well, needless to say, I can happily wade through 2 hours of twitter, code of conduct, hello to Jason Issacs for 30 seconds of Yogi Bear. That was VERY very funny and vintage Kermode.

The very WORST thing they seem to do these days is to waste time reading correspondence from annoying listeners boasting about their training for some marathon or run or other.
This is particuarly annoying as, A) It always comes across as a veiled boast about their athletic achievement and, more importantly, B) Since when were movie fans into fitness???!! Listeners emailing the show shouldn't be talking about running and getting fit, they should be pointing out geeky mistakes the duo have made, or making obscure references to unavaialble movies. Podcast listening film fans ought to be big, fat, wheezy, sweaty types, like Harry Knowles and not constantly banging on about how many miles they've achieved that morning.

I've enjoyed Kermode's views on film ever since his Extreme Cinema introductions all those years ago and I enjoy the review show for the most part, I just find his impressions and silly voices irritating. A lot of them weren't funny the first time, and repeating them every week is just obnoxious.
