/tv/ is full of racists yet most people /tv/ seem to agree that Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, which was directed, co-written, and co-created by a black guy, is 10/10 GOAT.

That's how good Darkplace is.

>>62634151
He's an Aryan Norwegian

Good show though

Dean Learner is an honorary aryan though.

But how do you feel about Darkplace? Have you seen Ayoade's other directorial work? Do you think he's a good director? Do you think Steve McQueen is a good director?
>>
>>62634151
Gonna start his book on a flight tomorrow. Can't wait.

Darkplace is pretty much perfect and Man to Man With Dean Learner is amazing too, if a little more subtle.

No one except the British can do a show like this.
>>
>>62634937

I'm the guy who said he was an honorary aryan and that dark place is the shit. I've not seen Submarine or that other doppleganger one he did, but I'm led to believe they're great films. I've only really seen Ayoade in that shit graham lineham sitcom and that great interview with krishnan guru-murthy where he refuses to play ball and completely subverts everything.
>>
>>62634151
it's twee shite

I wish I was more attractive like daglass
>>
>>62634991
They're very good films. I've not read the work that The Double was based on but I saw it with a friend of mine who is a big Dostoevsky fan who was convinced it was unadaptable but afterwards he thought it was the best film of the year.

That aside there must be other works but black directors you admire. Steve McQueen? Spike Lee? Did you find black dynamite funny?

i feel like all the jokes in it that aren't "very cheaply made 80's tv show with bad acting and everything"-jokes flow right over my head
or are those the only jokes it has?
>>
>>62635005
>twee

I don't think you know what that word means. It's not really sentimental at all as it's so far beyond what it's mocking in terms of absurdity.
>>
>>62635045
>Steve McQueen? Spike Lee? Did you find black dynamite funny?

No idea about any of these, but I suspect they are awful; but I really honestly don't care for niggers at all my friend, me being exposed to them isn't going to remedy this, exposure is the reason for my opinion.
>>
>>62635047
Those really aren't the funniest parts. The funniest parts come from when you get insights in to hubris of Garth Marenghi though the window of the characters in the show he created. E.g. "I wish I was more attractive like Dagless"
>>
>>62635066
Well take my word for it that Hunger and Shame are great films and if you think Darkplace is funny you'll find Black Dynamite funny.
>>
If it were just the 80s pastiche it would be great but the interview sections elevate it to a whole other level. The fact they created an entire episode that was intentionally running out of ideas just to make a joke shows some real commitment.

>>62634988
Man To Man is fantastic. Couple of weak episodes tho.
>>
When did this air? I've never heard about it outside of /tv/.
>>
>>62635175
About a decade ago if I remember correctly. 2004?
>>
>>62635163
>the interview sections elevate it to a whole other level
That's the big thing Dakplace gets right that no other intentionally "so bad it's good" work does. What ultimately makes a "so bad it's good" film or show funny is the insights into the people who made it that you gather from watching the film. When you watch The Room you learn so much about Tommy Wiseau the person. You learn what a peculiar view on the world he has, you learn what he's insecure about, you learn how he's views women and it's all insane and that's what makes The Room funny. The framing device for Darkplace is so perfect because if it was just "a lost bad show" it would be okay at best but instead we get great scenes like when Garth reads his book in show and praises how good it is and we realize that Garth is insecure about his books and how people view them. That's something that seriously laking from something like Danger 5 (still good) or Kung Fury (not so good).

Man to man would be better if the audience laughter was more sparse

so i'm rewatching this now and what happened to madeline wool? killed by dean learner? they mention that they had crazy parties back then

It's ambiguous but it's implied that she's buried somewhere.
>>
>>62637127
>>62637162
I'm gonna go with Drug overdose after, nee during, a threesome with guy who plays Sanchez and Dean Leaner.

Hell knowing Dean she probably wasn't even dead, just really out of it but he panicked and buried her alive.

Nice mental gymnastics. This one black guy is okay, so he's not black!
>>

yeah i guess that's the only explanation there is but it just seems too dark and kinda out of place for a show like this
>>

I know it does... but have you seen the Randolph Curr episode of Man to Man with Dean Learner?
>>
>>62637249
>Hell knowing Dean she probably wasn't even dead, just really out of it but he panicked and buried her alive.

I can totally picture Dean doing that. And then I can picture Garth writing a great novel about it.
