NightWoundsTime Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) Just watched the first epispode of the new half hour Onion News Network show on IFC. Slightly different tone than I ever noticed on the website, as they've recast the network into something of an alternate universe where political correctness never happened and brutal honesty is the norm. Add in a mild dystopian vibe, such as the Network having access to cameras "watching over 80% of the world's population." Much more consistent writing than the video section of The Onion, every story in the pilot was hilarious. Edited January 22, 2011 by NightWoundsTime
mikeymad Posted February 18, 2011 Report Posted February 18, 2011 I have been a big fan of The Onion for many years. These episodes need rewatching, there is so many things that they are putting on the bottom of the screen that I miss because I am caught up in what they are saying. I think that the writing is tighter than The Onion Movie. Shows probably wont last too long, but I enjoy them while they are here. Cheers,

Cheers, I will not consider the possibility of cancellation! I mean, it's on IFC ferchrissake, why would they cancel it? It has managed to become my favorite thing on TV. Sorry Top Gear.
postjack Posted February 19, 2011 Report Posted February 19, 2011 we watched an episode on demand, very funny stuff. but the real story on IFC is Portlandia. PUT A BIRD ON IT !
NightWoundsTime Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) I think my friend nailed my own feelings last night when I had him watch the pilot of Portlandia. His comment, "I really want to hurt these people". Every character deserves a good punch in the face. Edited February 20, 2011 by NightWoundsTime
