New comedy starring 'Inbetweeners' star Simon Bird and Tamsin Greig. Looks quite funny actually. Not quite 'Inbetweeners' funny, but good enough.

Tamsin Greig is a comedic genius but she doesn't half pick some stinkers. This looks like one of those new brands of comedies without actual jokes.

$h!t, I forgot to watch Episodes last night. This talk of Tamsin just reminded me laugh.gif

Yeah, this looks like it has some potential.

starts this Friday, looks like it might be funny, Simon Bird (Will from Inbetweeners) looks like he is good in this anyway.

Fuck Simon Bird, I can't stand him. It's obviously going to be all about Tamsin Greig.

It looked crap in all the adverts, but then Mark Heap got involved and - BAM. Am so up for it now.

Tamsin Greig is why I live. Black Books was AMAZING, so hopefully she can make this good aswell, I can't see it however. Good to see Simon Bird's in - should be a RYT LARF for abit methinks...

I found this SLIGHTLY FUNNY.


the cast is good, some of the jokes werent, some were, which is a shame as I've seen loads of people hype up the writer.

I concur.

Watched the two episodes, and they're "alright". Was put off by Simon Bird being involved, especially after the pathetic "King Is Dead" show he did which was the least entertaining 30 minutes I had all of last year.

With this, you can see a lot of it coming a mile off, especially with the thick looking neighbour, but still, it's watchable.

Am I the only one who finds Simon Bird to be a really irritatingly smug TWAT in this?

Beyond that, this is OKAY. There's moments of brilliance (mainly involving Mark Heap and the gran) but they're all too brief and infrequent.

This is absolutely hilarious and one of my favourite sitcoms/comedys! It returned for its fourth series last night but I've yet to watch it, I'm very much looking forward to it though. It always has plenty of genuine laugh out loud moments and it always has such an over the top ending! laugh.gif

First episode was very good. Jason Watkins as a guest star was a bit of a treat.

Six episodes per series is a UK comedy standard - it (usually) keeps the quality up. That said, sometimes they're over so damn quickly!
