Is Cuckoo dead??

When it was series 1 I thought I watched all the episodes, but I saw an advert for series 2 the other day and the voice-over man said that Cuckoo had died.

How?? I'm sure I watched all episodes from series 1 and I don't remember him dying. Maybe I missed it.

Also, what's up with the idiots who cast the new actor (Cuckoo's son apparently who looks the same age but no one seems to mind)?? Why on earth would they bring in that Taylor Lautner?????????????????????????????????????????

That's a TV show killer right there!

Hush hater, Taylor is doing a great job. The show picks up 2 years later. I gues Cuckoo died, or is presumed dead, while he was traveling. Taylor is 22 and Andy , though he looks younger is in his 30's. Great show.

I'm not a hater.

Yeah i just googled it, Andy is 35, that's insane, I thought he was in his 20s.

Still, only 13 years difference and they booth look around the same age, not that great of casting.

In season 2 ep 1 it's said that Cuckoo became father at 13.

The idiot, who casted Taylor Lautner is the chief and producer of Roughcut TV. His name is Ash Atallah. He would be amused about your friendly words.
They had to replace Samberg, because he has another show on Fox, USA.
Lautner is 22, Samberg is 36. No way they look the same age.
The death of Cuckoo and why he has a son is explained in episode 1.
You should watch it. It's very good.
About TV show killer:
LOL.
The episode yesterday has 3,8 %. BBC is very pleased. The average of Cuckoo 1 was 2%.
Last but not least: one interrogation mark at the end of every sentence is enough.

Taylor is really funny actually, not to mention extremely nice to stare at over, and over, and over again

[–] heidi-652-460156 10 years ago

That's part of the plan.

He's gone missing but will probably return in the finale.

Which would be worse: To live as a monster, or to die as a good man?

Say what you want about Taylor but he's doing a good job on the show. The premiere was funny, can't wait to see the rest of it.

Esta es mi firma

Taylor is doing a good job. The show is so funny. Esp. 2 is gonna be hilarious.

What I don't get is why no one seems to have mentioned Tamla Kari being replaced by Esther Smith!

The mum does an in joke, saying she's changed a lot since Cuckoo's left!

Not sure how I feel bad the replacement yet. Tamla did the loveable dappy thing well.

Esther's more like a naughty school teacher - like her character in Uncle.
Less innocent.

Yeah. They are both (Tamla and Esther) very cute though.

Don't be such a dick.
It's obvious they are setting the stage for Dale to marry Rachel then Cuckoo will show up alive.

When I saw Lautner I was in a state of shock but he did his character extremely well. It's extremely difficult to compete with Greg Davies if you've ever watched Man Down but I always remember these shows have writers and directors...granted Greg Davies needs very little of either.

That dude is just funny.
You could give him a bag of kraft singles and a wall and he would make it funny.
