To be fair to Mark, he is a bit of a player. He pulls some pretty attractive women over the show, he had a way better shot at Dobby than Gerard. I suppose that’s why they got together and Gerard died. That’s so Gerard.
Only reason mark is successful with women is because he's the protagonist and it moves the plot forwards. In real life he'd have several restraining orders and be on some kind of register.
@@OscarDirlwood The country is 9,5 million square kms of mostly moderate climate flatlands, defended from all sides by nature, rich enough to nourish 320+ million people and make them by far the biggest economy in the world. But yeah, only the world wars made them a superpower...
@@OscarDirlwood It's interesting that you bring up a policy yet forget about history. They didn't remain isolated from the Napoleonic Wars and they meddled in the affairs of almost every country of the Western Hemisphere immediately after they've established themselves as an independent country. Because that's what countries do. They live in the world, not in a vacuum. But suppose you're right and the world wars never happened. You think the US wouldn't have outgrown every single country in Europe with the natural advantages they have? It just happened sooner.
I want to point out that Mark has an _older edition_ of Dungeons and Dragons in his closet during season 1. I think its the first episode; he opens his closet and up in the right hand corner it's clearly there. He found his people yet refused to associate with them
@@cartmanofsp ah, just realized how my comments came off. I'm into DnD/TTRPG myself and would love to own older DnD stuff. Just funny that Mark can't recognize what a hypocrite he's being and how he's cutting off people that could be the friend group he's always wanted.
Its sad how Gerard could have been a nice friend for Mark and facilitate his closeted geek hobbies if Mark didn't see him as an arch-nemesis competing for Dobby lol
Some people would say this clip is an example of how terrible a person Mark really is. On the contrary I’d say it shows he’s actually a very kind person. He is able to harbor real-time malevolent thoughts about a person he hates while carrying on a perfectly civil conversation with them all the while leaving the person safely shielded from his utter disdain for them. Only a truly nice guy would go so far out of their way to do that for their fellow man. We salute you, Mark!
dmotorhead - Good point. For all we know Gerard is probably thinking about murdering mark and raping his corpse. And here Mark is treating him like a decent human being. Further undeniable evidence of Mark’s benevolent and tolerant nature. And not a good look for Gerard if I do say so.
People also think he's fumbling a friendship and is being silly for insisting on not being a geeky loser, but that's a very fine feeling to have. Once you've grown out of your more embarrassing traits, people around you that remind you of them are going to make you uncomfortable, and you don't owe it to them to belittle yourself if you'd rather move on to more mature things just because currently the more mature people aren't accepting you.
Just grab us a couple cyber men while your up on your little perch pal. They're not for playing with, obviously, just gonna keep them in their boxes, mint condition...
One of the strangest things I've seen made; makes me wonder how many more there are. Is there one of Hitler, Mussolini, Mao, Castro and whoever was the Emperor of Japan during WWII in that shop, too?
Funny how this show traversed the period from 'nerd' culture being genuinely alternative and fringe to a chiselled mainstream product that just about everyone consumes
As someone who's worked in stores like these, I'd honest be more annoyed by the collector comment. At least get some use out of the things, maybe even get the kids involved. Models weren't meant to be trapped in cardboard prisons to sit on a shelf collecting dust until forgotten about, even if they do accrue in value, the number that do get resold is minimal compared to the number that get thrown out by the girlfriend/wife/mother on a house purge.
Great that instead of like tanks or fighter planes or even soldier figurines, they have dolls of famous historical people, showing just how much roleplaying "being interested in history" really is
I tried to be an Industrial Designer; then the world got so fucked up I could no longer understand it any more. I should have been a Design historian instead.
Oooh Mark is a PLAYER! 😆 Tbh if it wasn't for their rivalry over Dobby, I think Mark and Gerrard would have been good friends. Both socially awkward and with similar interests, but just enough difference between them to allow Mark to feel like he's the Alpha in the relationship. Under different circumstances, it would have worked brilliantly! Poor Gerrard R.I.P.
0:25 Funny as peep show is I couldn't relate to Mark's response more. Worse thing you can do is call yourself an ugly loser and try and drag your "friends", into your woe-is-me narrative XD Had to deal with a lad like this at colllege, when I cut that bitter incel loose I was a lot happier and more productive in every possible way
Well at 2:12, KFC can be seen outside and the KFC on Church street (the street with forbidden planet) is on the same side as Forbidden Planet but is further up the street. So probably not, unless KFC was initially situated further down Church street but has since moved up for some reason.
Hello, I am currently working on a five-part series ranking every episode of Peep Show, and I would like to use a small bit of this for my video that I would like to put on UA-cam. Do you mind?
I'm a nerd but what's the deal with these dolls? They look like regular action man gi Joe dolls but with a toy wheelchair and a suit. Like why spend more than 20 quid on it
Well, I'm a huge transformers fan, and I pay every once in a while ridiculous amounts of money for "Masterpiece" versions of the toys from the original 1984 cartoon, so... I understand that being Mark such a geek AND a huge fan of history, he'd spend money on FDR, Stalin and so on
Mark was superior to no one, so why was he always so down on the G-Man? A tube up one's nose is far less disturbing than a freakazoid ballsack with tainted nuts. Did he ever get that corrected? We never did learn about that after his encounter with that nurse.
War machine models on the shelf behind... loooooool... everyone knows GW models (and games!) are the best. How that shop makes any profit i just don't know. .... yeah maybe GW didn't license peep show but my inflammatory comment still stands. Get Rekt son.
I can't see how anyone can afford $250NZ (Sigmar knows how many British pounds) for a model of one white Warhammer Fantasy character. More if you want a good hero like Vlad or Mannfred. I thought about getting one single unit and it would have meant I couldn't eat for a week lmfao.
