Yeah, something just wasn't clicking for me with this show. I tend to like British comedies, but something was just off here.

It felt too clichéd for me. Like a homogenization of a half-dozen other british comedies i've seen before. Maybe it would grow on me with time but i just didn't feel compelled to keep watching. I also have a very low tolerance for shows with a laugh track....American or British.

If you've seen it, where do you guys stand on Peep Show as a matter of interest?

That, I liked.

Yeah, Peep Show is one of my all time favourites, a very very funny show. Different humour to The IT Crowd. Jez is responsible for some of my favourite lines:

"Who needs love when you're doing it in the bum?!"

Amazing show.

This is a terrible show. No original jokes whatsoever. What do people see in this? It's basically 2% better than When the Whistle Blows.

I haven't seen it.

But I'd trust Argo with my hamster. So, I'm sure as shit trusting him on tv.

Your hamster is dead.

Fuck you!

Guess you gotta rent IT Crowd now. Sucks to be you!

durdencommatyler · **Posted:** Fri May 13, 2011 4:06 am

That's all fine and good, but WHAT AM I GONNA DO ABOUT A HAMSTER?!
