Anyone up for a rewatch of Spaced?

Not sure if this idea has been kicked around before but would people like to watch and discuss Spaced?

It seems to be available on Netflix.

You had to ask?

Okay this seems like it got a pretty strong response. Let's talk timings. How frequently do you wish the posts to go out? Once a week?

Alas I won't be able to participate I don't think, but as a suggestion it's also fun to watch Black Books either concurrently or around the same time as Spaced, as the shows shared a production company then, and you can see cameos between the shows.

Plus Black Books is just stellar.

Hm. Well Black Books is a very good suggestion for a rewatch but it would put more on my plate than I can currently handle.

I also wonder how much free time people have - I know that I don't have the space to rewatch *both* shows concurrently, and i would love to watch & discuss both here at Metafilter when the rewatchings are being posted rather than at a later date when the thread gets a bit cold.

It's a good suggestion - I lean towards a "one at a time" approach though. What do you all think?

I vote one at a time, once a week.

I would prefer a Sunday posting schedule, rather than a weekday. Does this sound good? If I hear crickets I'll just DO IT.

Yay for Sundays but Black Books bites. Double Yay for Jaffa cakes.

Why don't we tentatively agree Black Books after Spaced?

OK to confirm first post this Sunday, 2nd Feb. (Episode: "Beginnings").

Here's the episode order for this 'situational comedy' from Wikipedia.

Da-da-da! Heyyyy, Scooby! I had forgotten that gag.

Right, Sunday. Must stop watching the episodes back-to-back.

Spaced looks like it's on youtube. Mostly. you could do shared watches. Just saying.

Black Books had been streamable on Netflix US, but not currently, just to bring that factor in. (I'd been intending to switch it in, then....) Looks to be on Hulu, though.

Heads-up: the first Spaced post will appear later today, as I have stuff to do, but it will appear!

valkane - Shared watches might be fun but not able to coordinate. Suggest the person most motivated to do it, does it. (how does that work, anyway? You tweet at the same time you're watching? prolly not for me as I want to devote my full attention to the episode but if others are keen, go ahead and coordinate! )

Let's get this thing STARTED! *

* Later today, around 7 pm..

Ahoy, Black Books is back on US Netflix if a rewatch is still on the cards.

I'll try not to fluff my squee in those threads like I did in the last Spaced ones.
