Very Funny


I mean very STUPID, of course. ;-) Marcus Brigstocke does a great job here and as does the guy playing GOOBA.

Honestly, genuinely, this is one of the funniest programmes on TV right now. I sneak out of work early on Fridays to get home in time to watch it on CBBC.

And I'm twenty-two years old.

Stupid is dark and subversive and funny,yes I am 23,I think it is much clever than alot of the other rubbish on daytime televison.Waht do you think of Devil Finger?

reply

I think the kid is great, but the Devil Finger sketches as a whole aren't nearly the funniest sketches in the programme. I think my favourite one is the kid who hides in a box and pretends to be a photo booth or a washing machine. That or the news broadcast kids. And the kid who invents useless stuff and keeps getting refused a patent.

"Good afternoon, Mr Bogbreath"

"It's pronounced 'SMITH'!"

Brilliant.

reply

I do agree that the Devil Finger is sort of funny,but not as funny as the much of the show.I think the granny is one of the funiest,what do you think?

reply

I think the granny is one of the funniest

Oh my God, when the boy was tidying her house and totally ignoring her, then he opened a sort of under-stairs cupboard and she toppled out, I laughed for ages.

reply

Have you seen the one where he is next to her grave,then turns out she is still alive.That was so funny.

reply

Nah, I don't remember that. Unfortunately, I missed a lot of episodes because I always had to work on Fridays and I couldn't always sneak out in time to get home for Stupid. Of course, now that my store has closed down and we've all been made redundant, Murphy's Law dictates that Stupid isn't on any more.

Rrrrrrrgghhh!

reply

Have you seen the one with the bus cue where they hoodies scream at people to move them on and take their place?

reply

lol @ the kid in the box, yes, that sketch IS brilliant.

reply

I absolutely loved it when he was pretending to be a photo booth, took the woman's money and then presented her with four cartoons of other people and she went "But these pictures look nothing like me!" and he replied from inside the box: "Yeah, well, these things never do, do they?" and then, while she was distracted looking at the pictures, the box got up and ran away. With her cash.

Anyone know when it'll be back on TV?

reply

And I'm twenty four. I just love it when King Stupid calls Gooba a 'BOG HOUSE RAT', it's just such a horrible insult. I mean, I have no idea what a bog house rat is, if it's meant to be anything at all, but it sounds terrible. I'm going to start using it on people! :-)

I met the writer of this yesterday at a radio station, having only seen it once and thought it was pretty funny and impressive for a kid's TV show. Wish I could see some more episodes of it actually.

I like the barrister girl! v. funny

Oh, Dr. Beeching what have you done?
