Like me, Liam is a prisoner of love. He swore up and down that this show was funny, but I just don't really get British humor or British people for that matter. Except Liam. He's got "it", whatever "it" is. This show however, does not have "it." I would still welcome the challenge of representing a British actor (or actress) at my PR firm. <br /> <br />[...] Rating: 2 / 5 This show was highly recommended by a handsome chap I know named Liam.

Maybe it's because I viewed it under tired, hormonal conditions, or was simply expecting something else--like to laugh--but one episode of this was enough for me. I'm off to watch something more high-concept, like "Father Ted"! Rating: 1 / 5 I looked forward to seeing this after reading four years’ worth of reviews detailing the genius of the show.

The second episode made me fear for the future Western Civilization if this is what is considered funny. The sheer level of <br />sexual coarseness in the dialogue, if anything remotely close to what could actually happen in mixed company in Britain, is appalling. Even if its not close to realistic, the fact that it made it on broadcast TV is appalling. Rating: 1 / 5 I made it through the first two episodes.

The rest of the disks (3 to 6) will not be viewed because it would be a waste of electricity, to power up my entertainment centre. Hydro is too precious to be floundered on this kind of tripe. <br /> <br />Getting right to the point, I've never viewed anything as boring and lackluster as this show. All the characters are mundane and require acting lessons, in the worst way. There is absolutely no chemistry or spark that gels these bunch of rookie actors. The script and lines are neither funny nor entertaining. I was hoping to say one positive thing about the show but there isn't one to give you. <br /> <br />Rather than burdening yourself by watching this lame show, do something constructive. Clean your toilet bowl or change the oil in your vehicle. You will have at least spent the time, worthwhile. Rating: 1 / 5 I purchased the First Season and watched disks 1 & 2 (there are 6 in total).
