After being hounded for weeks to actually watch this thing, I started from Series 1 and I'm nearly finished Series 2. All of my friends absolutely love this so, I thought, why not? After watching so much of it, I've developed an informed opinion on the show. A discussion between me and my friend, Craig, really sums up exactly what I think about it.

craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:46):

"Trying too hard" springs to mind.
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:47):
what dyou mean?
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:47):
who's trying too hard? haha
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:48):
if they're supposed to be funny then i just think they're trying too hard to make it funny when, really, they're fine with the plot/jokes they've got
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:48):
ok then..
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:49):
if thats ur opinion then fair enough
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:49):
it is :L
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:50):
personally i think thats what makes the program,its not meant to confine to any strict rules, its almost like a kids show but darker, and fielding and barrat just come across as being like that naturally :)
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:50):
see what you said there about it being a kids show ... that's kind of how it comes across
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:51):
i can see how it appeals to certain folk though
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:51):
thats how its meant to come across
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:51):
its not dealing with serious issues is it haha
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:51):
it doesn't have to
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:52):
exactly :S
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:52):
thats my point
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:54):
its not dealing with strict, serious issues. therefore they can stretch the boundaries of what theyre trying to do, something that no other comedy shows that ive seen do, its deliberately meant to be psychadelic and outlandish, unlike something like friends, which alothough being hilarious, deals with more real life situations :) its not meant to be a sitcom, theres no real description for it, mainly due to the parts that you dont like, which is what seperates it from anything else that i've seen haha
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:54):
i'm not denying that it's different
i just don't like the different part of it. xD
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:55):
cool beans haha
daaaave. :) my eyes, they didn't always lie. your voice, it spoke to me like thunder. says (16:55):
which is why i said i can understand why other folk would like it
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:58):
did u? :-Ohaha
craig i'll be in the lobby drinking for two ' says (16:58):
i must have missed that bit Sd

So, what about you?
 
its pure genius.
some people dont like it tho.
it is different, but its funny and entertaining, so it does what is sets out to do
 
Going to see them in November, cant wait. I love the second series, havent seen the third yet. Their live stuff is classic and its such a great show.
