Dreadful!

I am not offended by anything other than pathetic attempts at humour. Does anyone agree this is the most puerile, unfunniest load of drivel on TV?

Its pretty poor but watchable I guess

In other words, in a few years time, this "weak" comedy may be considered a classic, as has happened to lots of other poor British shows.

^^ Dunno what on Earth you're talking about.

Anyway, I saw about half an episode of this recently and couldn't believe what I was seeing. The painfully obvious delivery of the so called jokes was so far from the way British comedies work, it was just embarassing. If a few school kids put together a comedy act for a school talent show I'd expect it to be better than this. Any programme that makes me wish I was watching Two Pints of Lager has got some serious, serious issues. BBC Three is an embarassment.

This is a real, real bad show. Waste of air time. I'm disappointed to see this on BBC3 so often. It'll end up being forgotten about and personally I don't know anyone who would miss it when they stop playing it.

Not a future "classic" at all lol. You'd be deluded to think that. It brings absolutely nothing new to the table, holds no sense of importance, and is more an annoying and strenuous chore to watch than anything else.

This programme is utterly terrible - both badly written and performed.

Really just... rubbish.

Its the canned laughter that is the worst.
