The Office was shit.
Certainly overrated. It had it’s moments of genius but there was far to much flannel and hype surrounding it all and I think old beardy tub did the right thing at the right time when he pulled it. Give me a re-run of On the Busses any day of the week. Now there's real life.

Great comedy. Thought it lost a lot when Jeff (Richard Coyle) left. I suppose it was doomed as Davenport was off playing with pirates around then anyway. Rrrrr. Still at least Moffitt has a show back on the screen soon(ish), he's writing Dr. Who.

And the episodes he's already written have been the best ones. He's also writing a new sherlock holmes series for BBC One.

Jonathan Creek is the best shout so far.
Bought them all on DVD recently, still quality to watch. Should deffo roll out a new series.

Life on Mars
Although I think it had more left, they were right to can it when they did. Go out on a high, rather than drag it out and leave the last series feeling weak. Which, although I love it, is what the Wire did IMO

They did a special at Xmas and there will be another one next Easter. Amazing that its been running over 12 years now and they've only managed to do 26 episodes so far. Not sure why they aren't making more, what else does Alan Davis do other than QI?

the last series of the Wire was a bit disappointing in some respects but I think the inevitability of the impending ending was difficult to ignore. I did love the last episode though.

Dirty Sexy Money
Definitely agree - I was shocked to hear they wound it up after series 2 in the States (and I'm sure I heard a rumour that they didn't even showthe final episode!)

Brass Eye and Father Ted are good shouts. I also reckon a series called Jack and Jill. It was an American drama love story thing that only ran for 2 seasons i think. But i loved the female co-star (Amanda Peet) so much that i even watched re runs. ![Embarrassed](//thetownend.com/Smileys/tefsmile/blush.gif) She is THE most beautiful woman on the planet. Here's some pictures i took.

I think Brass Eye is perfect at the seven episodes made. Not sure how many more issues they could have covered, other than perhaps immigration.

Chris Morris's Terrorist/Suicide bombing thing he's been planning finally got picked up by film4 after getting turned down by channel4 and the bbc recently. Something to look forward to.
I reckon he might get fatwaed

Never heard of it - if it makes it to TV could you chuck a reminder on here? Wouldn't want to miss that one.
