Cult TV reviewers/writers needed

Just saw this: http://www.lastbroadcast.co.uk/v/246-cult-tv-reviewers-writers-needed.html

It says "The site needs writers to review new episodes/DVDs and contribute to features. Unfortunately they won't be able to pay you, but you will get sent the latest shows and DVDs before they're out, and once you've reviewed them the discs are yours to keep. There may also be other opportunities, like doing interviews."

Could be interesting - anyone?

    Thanks, LilyC. This bit made me smile.

    Interesting but I never watch any of the shows mentioned. I am so out of that particular loop I only recently learned that Torchwood is an anagram of Doctor Who - duh.

    Would be fantastic for a full-time job but I don't think I could combine it with my current job and other hobbies.

    Do they want these 'reviews' as an aid to SELL the particular dvd s, or do they want HONEST reviews? :-)

    Might have a serious look at it as I watch most of those shows anyway - free DVDs are always welcome.

    Good point Bill; the former no doubt.

    Must admit, even though I didn't watch Torchwood, I kept being subject to all these trailers and thinking "what a stupid name for a programme." Was ages before someone informed me it was an anagram.

    I suppose if you watch it regularly you'd know.

    Only watch one or two of those listed, so no good for me.

    I'm tempted by this as I love doing reviews. I did a few in the past for an on-line DVD site and got nothing for that so why not. I also get free tickets to do cinema previews but never get around to going or doing them which is silly. Think I'll work on that this year (2011).
