Just found the show

I just came across the show a few weeks ago and I really enjoyed it (I'm from the US).

You just don't see comedies like this anymore. They are real actors, performing live, lots of 1 takes, not much coverage in scenes, basically using 1 main set and 2 others sparingly. It's pretty genius.

I wish it would've lasted longer, and I wish that more comedies/sitcoms were made this way today.

The psychiatrist episode was definitely my favorite episode (in case anyone was wondering).

That was the first ep I saw, but I think my favourite is the Mutiny Parody.. or maybe the Security guard competition, with a prize of a job AT HEATHROW AIRPORT... or maybe the one with Eric?
