    This could be superb... or could be awful to be honest!

    That looks mental. Not sure if it will be a hit or a miss but could have some funny moments.

    Sky Atlantic has announced that it will air the comedy show Funny Or Die.
    The series is based on the popular website of the same name, which was founded by Will Ferrell and Anchorman director Adam McKay.

    Will this be made up of clips from the website (like The Ricky Gervais show is made up of the podcasts) or will it be new material?

    Never looked at the website but watched it last night and thought it was a load of crap. Not funny at all.

    The Prius racing set got a laugh out of me, rest of it was fairly ****. Don't think I'll be watching again,

    Yeh it drew one or two half laughs but was mostly ****e, think ill give one more try just in case, but off to a really poor start.

    Actually ya, I forgot about that. That was funny enough. The kids in the playground acting as Africa, America & the IMF was alright too just cause we can relate to it now.

    After watching the first two episodes, it's not terrible and it has it's moments. The Drunk History was hilarious. I thought most of the sketches from the first two guys on episode 2 were pretty good, in particular the two guys on stilts.

    I think the main problem is that some of the jokes are dragged out too long and the humour dies out in them.

    Loved the Drunk History too, very, very funny. Everything else got a few chuckles from the first couple of episodes.

    watched both seasons last week.Over all thought the whole show was terrible.Only positive thing for me was discovering Tim and Eric,who I thought had the stronger sketches over all on the show. Got a couple of episodes of their own show and found that far most satisifing than anything I saw on Funny of Die.For my money, some of the best comedy shows are on adult swim at the moment.

    watched the first five minutes of the first episode and couldnt stick anymore. i havent been as bemused watching "comedy" since i seen andrew maxwells last dvd

    I don't like how you're only given two options: "Funny" or "Die". How about "change channel" or "give me that 30 minutes of my life back"?

    Really crap show.
