    One of the worst so-called "comedians" and "actors" the UK has ever
    had. Diane Morgan is an incredibly stupid woman who ruins everything
    she's ever been in, mostly due to her near-constant pointless swearing
    and complete lack of any acting ability or talent.


    Hilarious Netflix TV Show Returns for Surprise Season 3
    -------------------------------------------------------
    Netflix and the BBC are bringing back a hilarious TV series for
    a surprise third season, with an entirely new premise.

    What Netflix TV show is back for a surprise Season 3?
    According to Variety, Netflix and the BBC are bringing back the
    character of Philomena Cunk for a third season. The character,
    who was created by comedian Diane Morgan and Charlie Brooker,
    and played by Morgan, is best known for her deadpan style as
    the host of several satirical documentaries.

    The third season of the show, titled Cunk on Cinema, will see
    the three-part series air on the BBC in the U.K. and Ireland,
    and globally on Netflix. The new show is described as the "most
    glamorous series to date," and will see the fictional character
    examining the world of movies and people's love for them.

    "Cunk?will?attempt?to demystify it all while sitting in lumpy
    seats with stale popcorn, asking herself where did cinema come
    from? And why? What does it want? And why can't it tell us?"
    reads the synopsis of the series.

    "Cinema has given the world some of the most profound, memorable
    and moving visual moments in its unswerving depiction of the
    human condition: the shower scene in 'Psycho,' Death playing
    chess in that Swedish thing, and Tom Selleck's glistening
    moustache in 'Three Men And A Little Lady,' to name but all
    three of the only examples I can think of at the moment," said
    Cunk. "There will, unfortunately, be some bits in black and
    white, but we'll keep that to the barest minimum."?

    In a statement from Brooker, he joked that "now that Sora has
    killed off Hollywood and itself," it's time to take a look at
    the world of cinema. Prior to this, Morgan played the character
    in 2018's Cunk on Britain, 2022's Cunk on Earth, and in a
    one-off special titled Cunk on Life that aired in 2024.

    Your lack of taste notwithstanding, thank you for the very good news
    that Philomena Cunk is coming back! I really like that character and her
    way of dealing with genuine experts in things. I believe the Brits call
    it "taking the piss" and she's brilliant at it. I guess you Kiwis didn't retain the British sense of humour. Or maybe you're just a curmudgeon.

    I'm also very fond of her series Mandy which she writes herself. She
    plays a loser who is constantly starting new jobs and making disasters
    of them all.

    This is one of the most idiotic shows I have ever seen. It wears thin in
    10 minutes.

    Wow! You must be a "super-fan" ... most people don't even last 5
    seconds before switching off the garbage (and that's *any* show the
    so-called "comedian" is in)!
