Hey, I like this show and have seen every episode so far. Anyone else like it?

Episode 1 was hillarious. 2 was terrible. Three was ok. 4 WAS BRILLIANT!!!

I think its good, but the people that work on the farm can be annoying.

I really quite like this actually. I felt towards the end of Only Fools and Horses they had 'milked' the story lines a bit. The Christmas specials, to me, became less and less funny (although they were still good).
The Green Green Grass reminds me of the comedies of the late 70's early 80's (Ever Decreasing Circles/To the Manor Born/The Good Life), nice 'innocent/clean' comedy with some good characters. I would have liked to have seen a spin off with Trigger from OF&H as personally I thought he had some of the best 'one liners' ever in a British SitCom.

Wow!... I just more-or-less posted the same feelings about this show's 1970's / 80's style on another thread. (prior to reading your post btw)
I'm glad someone else sees it too!

Agreed, particularly the Episodes about Rocky the Gay Bull

This show may need a second series before it comes into its own the one about breeding the bull was very funny.

I watched an interview with John Cleese a few years back and he said most people hated Fawlty Towers for most of its first series and now it one of the best loved comedy shows of all time world wide so give this show a chance after all the writer created Only Fools and Horses.

I agree that shows need two series to prove their worth, this is terrible but maybe itll get better.

Think they need to try and get away from only fols as best they can though and make it its own show.

Can't wait for the Chrismas Special, where we see the Driscoll brothers catching them up. The Brothers are played by the same actors from Only Fools and Horses.

I liked it untill Marlene's mum showed up and that is when the show started to go wrong. To rectify it's self just get shot of Dora. NOW!.
