    I just saw the first episode of this Channel 4 series last night. I expected it to be a lot more satirical, and maybe it is, in an extremely subtle way, but regardless I found the pilot to be very enjoyable and engaging. I must go root out the next few eps to see how the rest of the cast shape up against Dan, the focal point of the first one.

    I might be the only one watching this, but the second eposide was great - very bittersweet, funny and poignant in good measure.

    I saw an episode of this last Tuesday night and I thought it was great, very dark and funny. It followed April, the girl with cherubism. I can't seem to find a schedule for it though, it doesn't seem to be on this week :confused:

    Seen the first 2 and thought they where very good, but i lost track of the scheduling and haven't seen any others.

    Watched the first episode when it came out and was very disappointed. Never watched anymore, might check out the second to see if it's improved at all.
