Don't Forget to Write! (1977–1979)
3/10
Terrible....awful....pointless...pathetic waste of time.

What a waste of George Cole!! Pathetic pretentious artsy sorta-comedy about a dysfunctional under-talented writer and his not-as-crazy-as-him family. The writing is typical wannabee art writing with entire scenes consisting of the actors asking questions and answering the question with another question and so on.....once is funny....MAYBE but 15 in a row is just stupid. In episode 4 of the second series the phone rings....LOUDLY...for an astounding 9 minutes......and THIS IS COMEDY?......TO WHOM? I really like Cole and although the other actors are not terrible....except the wife who overacts like a 1st year drama student....together they fail to 'click'. There is no connection and more and more we care less and less about his ridiculous life and the people who are part of it. It is absolutely astounding how this piece of cr*p got such high scores....but for me is is BY FAR the worst thing I have ever seen George Cole in.
