Has anyone caught any of these so far?
It's in it's second series and I caught a few of the first and found it a bit meh but the odds and ends of this series have been pretty good and had some cracking moments.
It's a hard one to describe though. It's peepshow, meets Boosh, meets Rising Damp!
Definately worth a look though if you haven't done so yet.

It's certainly a strange one. Doesn't always quite work but is funny enough when it does. Doubt it will win any awards but definitely worth a watch if there's nothing else on.
Infinitely better than that awful "Not Going Out" sitcom thing that the BBC were pushing earlier in the year.

I've seen a couple, ok if you are really at a loose end but not great. Not Going Out was awful.

I liked Not Going Out and I liked this!
Not much good comedy about these days, Benidorm and Peep Show. Then we are left with the dregs - My Family, Last of the Summer Wine and other endless crap.

On the telly comedy discussionness, Never mind the Buzzcocks was brilliant tonight. I was worried it would struggle again minus Amstell, but it was one of the best episodes for ages. Saying that, I didn't even bother watching last week when I saw it was that Corden cunt presenting. I hope that twat gets shot through the stomach and slowly dies as his digestive acids leek into his other organs.

Corden is a talentless, overrated cunt. I agree Rhod Gilbert was great tonight.
Alex James might be surprisingly good, he's always struck me as a down to earth kind of bloke.

Buzzcocks was shite with Amstell and becoming more and more stupid by the week, I much prefered Lamarr. Strange cos Amstell was great on popworld taking sly digs at idiotic popstars without them realising what was going on.
Tonights buzzcocks was good.

I remember Lamarr getting much worse towards the end of his hosting than Amstell ever was. Getting back a while ago now though.
On a panel game related note (see how I'm skilfully moving the topic about), I noticed the other day that Frankie Boyle has quit Mock the Week. I was never the biggest fan of it anyway, but that's got to be a pretty big blow?

I quite liked last week's Buzzcocks, ok hosting wasn't the highlight but Tom Clarke was actually really funny.
