"Paul Kedrosky: "I'm particularly fond of SmashingTelly given how it, in effect, Tivo-ifies the web"... Guy Dickinson: "David Galbraith has turned Smashing Telly into well, the new TV."... Fimoculous: "Best Blogs of 2007"... The Guardian: Video sharing on the net has uncovered a hoard of TV gems...and a number of sites have been established to lead us to them. Take smashingtelly.com."

about

"Smashing Telly is a hand edited collection of the best free, instantly available TV on the web. ~~Not 30 second clips~~ (now with added clips, good ones) of a dog on a skateboard, or the millionth person to mime the Numa song, but classic clips and full length programs, with a focus on documentaries and non fiction. Smashing Television, not Gimmick Television.

Each entry is like a postcard, a short piece of text which describes a moving picture."

Celebrated artist, Richard Serra’s sweet little piss-take of TV as being pernicious not because it isn’t active, but because it isn’t even passive – it consumes you. Complete with brainless test card music.

Thanks: Dan Westlake
