The Mighty Boosh (2003)
i really don't get it...
don't get me wrong. i like surreal comedy, i.e. Monty python, Vic and bob etc. but this just seems to be one big idiotic non-funny joke.
everyone i know raves on about this show, but i have tried, believe me i've tried to get into it, but its just not funny. awful acting, awful pop-culture references, and awful awful songs.
it is one of those shows that is weird for weird's sake. i have seen julian barrett in other things (Asylum and Nathan Barley) and he is genius. i don't even know how he could agree to be in this. noel fielding is one of the most annoying people on this planet. he cannot act, he does the same stupid voice for every "character" he plays, and he laughs at himself when delivering lines.
this isn't comedy. it isn't genius. it's a serious step down for British comedy.
you want funny? go get a reeves and Mortimer DVD.
absolute pish.
The Class (2006)
To all the people who bad-mouth this show...
i don't think that any of you realise that this show was a truly amazing show. Like others have pointed out, it did get off to a slow start, but so did Friends. Where other sitcoms focus on joke-situation-solution-joke-joke formats, this show DEVELOPED its characters. All the genuine fans of this show are the people who actually appreciate deeper comedy and characters as opposed to non-stop one-liners.
I believe comparing it to "2 and a Half Men" is a shameful and insulting comment.
A great show that will truly be missed by those who appreciated it, and truly loved the characters.
