Zapped (2016–2018)
9/10
A missed and overlooked future classic
23 June 2020
There is times when an idea shouldn't work and yet does ( think only Fools and Horse, Porridge) and there is some ideas that just had to work and this is one of those, think Lord of the Rings and Discworld having a TV baby. If you like the idea of a Gordon Kaye as a slightly insane wizard, aggressive fairies and a confused James Buckley ( if you don't , whats wrong with you). It's funny clever and very quirky, it's that clever type of humour with something different that makes comedies like Red Dwarf such a classic and how do they treat it, they chuck it in some hidden corners of UKTV play and try to pretend it doesn't exist. If you miss the clever humour of Red Dwarf before it all got a bit mundane ( think pre series 7) then this is for you and has some of the best comedy performances of all times. The only downside is they haven't commissioned series 4 , Let's not forget they commissioned three series of Miranda , which proves there is no cosmic justice. Watch it and tell you mates and your mates mates etc , so we can have a series 4.
