Is it wierd, that a boy think this show is fun?


Just wondering. Because this comedy show, is made by womans, and it's about womans.

I dont think so because comedy is not restricted like that.
I can see the funny side even if it is from a womans point of view as it's more of a human perspective on life and situations.
Also alot of it involvs a male character to give that complete view of the situation that they are portraying, kind of like bouncing between the male and female perspectives at times to achieve the clarity of the joke.
Finally the whole cast is just so good that the performances are probably 60-70% of the reason why it's great. All of them are superb and work brilliantly together. You can see the talent and the chemistry, but most importantly it's bloody funny from anyones point of view!

Of course alot of it is just really silly (In the best way it can be) so some of it definitely overlaps the sexes and in many ways anybody could enjoy this show from any age or nationality, or sex I think.

Yes..

And enjoing something doesn't always acquire understanding.

So there is no law that states that men are not supposed to like the series..

As what comes of understanding:
My opinion is that Smack the Pony is the funniest about 70% of the time while 30% of the time it is just plain weird..
(Perhaps I didn't understand the 30%. I don't think it is because I am a man, but it could be possible. Also I am not a Brittish. But my guess would be that about 30% of the series is just plain weird ^_^)

I don't think so, when this first was released i was 12 and loved that show, now aged 20 i still love the show. (uk gold repeats!)

I agree. Being a man and from Denmark too I like both Smack The Pony and the danish all woman Emma's Dilemma. It is about the only funny all woman comedy, but that only makes it more enjoyable.
