    Dear God... 'Peep Show' it was not!

    I had my doubts about it but... it really was truly horrible! :eek:

    All it did even make the brillant 'Extras' before it seem that bit funnier.

    I disargee, the show was funny. That bit with the 2 homeless lads was great and same for bmx bandit and angel summoner was alright too.

    It was okay but I'm not sure if I'll continue watching it. It's a great example of a show completely ruined by canned laughter. I mean the audience laughs at EVERYTHING. They laugh at things before your brain has had a chance to process what exactly you're seeing. What a disaster.

    I thought it was brilliant! Very very few comedies will even make me remotely laugh, but this one is actually good, very clever, pity it will prob get axed.. these 2 guys are genius.

    It's really, REALLY poor when you compare it to Peep Show.

    I don't know if any of you heard the radio series 'That Mitchell and Webb sound' which the TV series is based on, but it was much funnier than this TV show.

    Let's face it, apart from BBC3, the BBC can't do comedy!

    in fairness, the first episode was good, i still laugh when i think of the two homeless geezers. Last night it was only average and made to look worse by what was probably the best episode of extras ever.

    I missed the first episode but thought last nights episode was fairly funny. Its never going to live up to peep show though.
