Hi,

I'm with Daneel on this one. I actually quite like it, even if it is completely stupid and silly, and has corny dialogue that would make the "Carry On" team blush.

It beats "Lame Academy Deux", "Butt Blubber 4" and "Prat Idol II", any day of the week!

Hi

I'm with the rest of the guy's totally corny but an easy fun way to spend 30 mins. It's the sort of show that you know isn't great but you can watch time and time again and still enjoy it

I can't help but watch it!

I think it's low quality, "renta ghost" type TV.

But yet i never miss it if it's on

Cool

Definitely a move down the ladder from Father Ted but is better than some of the stuff they show, don’t think I have laugh at it yet.

Quite simply - I don't watch it. Didn't find Father Ted funny & i'm sure as hell not going to be watching this - I think it's safe to say that 80% of the time the BBC just can't do Comedy

I guess it would be okay as kid's tv but this is aimed at adults for god's sake, its the most abysmal, lame 'comedy' ever committed to TV and I don't for the life of me understand how it keeps getting another series.

utter bilge!! from father ted to this?!

I like it. Sure, it's predictable, but still fun.

A big steaming pile of comedy crap. Closely followed in the unfunny stakes by whatever that crap impression show is called that stars the incredibly bland personality vacuum that is John Culshaw.

Best comedy currently on tv is scrubs, red dwarf re-runs, some of bo-selecta and best of all the tom green show.
