Average Customer Rating:

Dated but still good.

Customer Rating:

I like Charlie Brooker. Charlie Brooker is a very funny man and his column in the Guardian is very funny too. Unfortunately if you can't remember most of the T.V. programmes he turns his ire on, then you're likely to be a bit lost as to why they deserve his anger. Revel in his caustic wit anyway as some deserved bile is poured out over victims, who, for the most part are the most venal, vain, shallow and self-centred people in or on television. A good loo book, its short entries a perfect for a 'visit'. Not so good to read cover to cover, which I did because mine was a library copy and I needed to return it. Best buy or get bought a copy and leave it within handy reach of the porcelain.

Funniest book I have read for a while	Customer Rating:
I am always a little suspicious when a book tells me I will "laugh out loud" because often as not I find myself reading it stone faced waiting for nuggets of wit that never seem to come. This book genuinely does what it says on the cover. Due mostly to a hugely funny use of over the top metaphor and comparatives. Similar to Clarkson but funnier and ruder. Buy it, you won't regret it.

The funniest book I have ever read

Customer Rating:

This man's grasp of language, his misanthropy and his FURY make him the funniest non-fiction writer there is. "Screen Burn" is an absolute masterpiece of bile, wit and (in fact) refusal to burp along with the "It's just a bit of fun, innit?" mentality that poisons so much modern TV. His reviews also prove just what an assured judge of quality he is, as he comes out in favour of programmes which have since been hailed as classics. He is compulsively readable and magnificently, blisteringly funny.

Good read at work!!.

Screen Burn is a collection of scathingly funny observations about TV programs taken from a popular uk newspaper from 2001-2004;and compiled into one big book.Charlie Brooker wrote the articals,and of course is the author of the book(screen burn).The articles are all in nice bite size 1-3 page chunks;so like me you can pick it up and put it down when it suits you and not loose the plot,or have the agony of putting it down when it was just getting good.Some storys had me laughing out loud,and some that i could not relate to didn't;either way you know at some point you will come across one sooner or later that will satisfy you entertainment needs. Charley Brooker also makes you say to your-self,"yes!! it's about time someone said that about that program and this person".He certainly gives some of his 'victims' a good hiding, and pays compliments where it's due. The reason i gave this only three stars is because he can rant a bit to much,and could write a bit more about some of the TV programs that i myself thought were a load of old tosh....yes i know, hows he supposed to know that, but.. well some people are never happy are they....I recommend this book if you want a bit of fun when you are board and want some TV junk therapy....

I think I wet myself!	Customer Rating:
Having to commute to work on the same bus as school kids Is a nightmare, you really wish for a baseball bat sometimes! Thankfully there's Screen Burn to dispense with the vitriol at the world on my behalf! Thank you Charlie!! Every day I would be almost wetting myself laughing to myself on the bus while reading this, venting of the spleen. Give this man a primetime show on the Beeb NOW!!!
