I thought it was good. Not necessarily spit out my drink laughter but nevertheless made me chuckle.

If it gets better I'll be guffawing like Desperate Dan

The start and the end were ace but I'll agree it dipped a bit in the middle. the 2021 (or whatever year) european footballer of the year bloke was a bit dull. The idea of charlotte chirch puking her self inside out was amusing to start off with but dragged on a bit.

The bit's at the start about blair going mad and staring at bins in baghdad was funny as was the blair cameron bit at the end.

I think it had a pretty good balance between the satire and random craziness but both could be a bit hit and miss. Still thought it was pretty ace and has a fair bit of potential.

When Blair started seeing stuff, I found that funny.

Yeah the footballer thing and Beckham weren't too great, but I'm happy to see more original comedy on the telly at least.

I liked the bit where the bloke said "David cameron nailed that line, i pissed myself"
And i liked the idea of that big fat Jamie Oliver

Blair seeing ghosts, the "commentator" tossers being every bit a bunch of nomarks as they have on those Channel 4 "50 best cheap programmes" things, the Blair/Cameron dub, and by and large the older versions of people being spookily convincing were all good. But the thing is with AI, you expect to be pissing yourself within the first 5 minutes, even if some of it is a bit hit and miss, so if you aren't, you're disappointed. Well I was, a bit. But I'm convinced it'll get better and by the third show, the Thursday night damp patch on the sofa will become a regular annoyance to the missus

I've sky plussed it, so haven't watched it yet....looking forward to it though.
I did watch about the first 5 minutes of it, it looked quite funny, slightly Brass Eye-ish, which I loved.

this is my fear. i've turned into a dmr style character who's posting is purely to mock or put people down and contribute nothing other than this!

i have more to offer than this alone, although these are my main skills, well honed after many a year ignoring reality and annoying people
