Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:07 (fourteen years ago)

Back when I did a "comedy script writing" course, I made a summation *against* 'cutting edge' comedy, as it was way overdone, and life had edgy undercurrents anyway.

Gav&Stace got it right.

e.g. episode 1, you get distracted by two people in the bathroom, having comedy/kinky/noisy sex, whereas the 'normal' young couple are doing it on their first date and the moral guardians barely noticed.

(mind you, most of those morguards are ded now anyways)...

No doubt you will disagree.

Mark G, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:12 (fourteen years ago)

So, er, you're voting for Gavin and Stacey?

Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:13 (fourteen years ago)

Gavin&Stacy failed in the most important respect - it just wasn't funny. at all.

"jobs" (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:14 (fourteen years ago)

Voted Nathan Barley. Feel like there are some things missing - Garth Marenghi's Darkplace?

"jobs" (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:14 (fourteen years ago)

I thought the first series of G&S was mildly funny and fairly likable.

Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:15 (fourteen years ago)

a ringing endorsement

Matt DC, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:18 (fourteen years ago)

I'm torn between Peep Show and The Thick of It. I like edgy sweary comedy myself - as long as it's, you know, good.

Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:19 (fourteen years ago)

Psychoville. Although I was weirdly kinda tempted by Mighty Boosh after having seen it being reassessed by Alan Davies on TV the other day. It was never going to be a long-lasting formula, but it felt very refreshing and original at the time.

Bernard V. O'Hare (dog latin), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:19 (fourteen years ago)

ah we do this on the reg I'm sure. Thick of It by miles.

I thought I lived in England (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:19 (fourteen years ago)

iirc the thick of it was the highest placing on the tv poll, upsetting ze office

"jobs" (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:20 (fourteen years ago)

I did a similar but different poll about three or four years ago. This is an update.

Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:22 (fourteen years ago)

So, er, you're voting for Gavin and Stacey?

Dunno.

The IT crowd is alright, rings true a lot of the time and is funny too.

Peep Show, is just one or the other repeating what the other has done in a sardonic voice. "You ate a Pizza?" and then slower, "You ate a pizza?"

Green Wing was good.

The rest, I didn't watch enough to go "yeah" or "No"...

Mark G, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:24 (fourteen years ago)

Christ almighty.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:25 (fourteen years ago)

The Mighty Boosh, I often thought "oh, that's on, I'll watch it" late at night not sleeping, only to find it's the exact same episode every time (bloke picks up hitch-hiker, is a psycho, etc. Didn't Woody Allen do this as part of his stand-up routine?)

Mark G, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:25 (fourteen years ago)

Hated Green Wing, and each episode went on for an hour as well.

Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:26 (fourteen years ago)

^^god help me i have endured entire episodes of all the above. completely fucking dreadful in every single way. at no point did i come close to laughing.

peep show was particularly embarrassing. i couldn't fathom a single reason why i should want to watch it.

lex diamonds (lex pretend), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:30 (fourteen years ago)

I remember seeing "That Peter Kay Thing" and liking most of them, but did think the "Phoenix Nights" one was the most rubbish and unfunny one of the lot.

Then the series came out, and whatever was wrong with it had got fixed.

Mark G, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:30 (fourteen years ago)

Thank you lex, thought I was on my own there.

Mark G, Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:30 (fourteen years ago)

I'm nowhere near a Peep Show stan but dialogue-wise it seems to occupy a pretty good middle ground between 'how people actually talk' (cf chat on Family Guy thread a couple of days ago) and being funny in an absurdist sort of way

I watched all of and sort of enjoyed Gavin and Stacy but mainly just because I liked the fat Welsh one. I def wouldn't vote it best by any means.

‎\(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Tuesday, 18 January 2011 14:35 (fourteen years ago)

Since it took a few years to get over here I had no idea that Spaced started in 1999. Always felt more recent than that. Anyway, of those on the list, I've really only seen 4 of them - The Office, The IT Crowd, Peep Show, and a few episodes of Black Books. Even though The Office gave me some of the most uncomfortable and cringe-enducing laughs I've ever had, I have to give it to Peep Show for being more consistently funny. The IT Crowd was alright, but forever tainted by the awful U.S. pilot.

Aye. I mean, they occasionally do this, but it's not *all* they do. Unless you have only watched one clip ever of Peep Show and think that's all they do.

I suspect lack of Inbetweeners love means it was second choice for lots of people. But I'm just extrapolating wildly from my own opinions, so probably completely wrong.

Oh, you know what I'm meaning, but hey let's expand.

It's like how "Last of the summer wine" is not always "Compo in a bathtub on wheels over a hill going "AAAAAARHHHHHH", but that's how it gets remembered.

I saw Roy Clarke (the writer) got a lifetime achievement award, particularly for writing 260 odd episodes of LOTSW, which is something, fair play, etc...

Mark G, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 13:16 (fourteen years ago)

In order of like

The Thick of It - absolutely fucking amazing. not really even satire, which is its great success - it's half-slapstick, half-documentary in tone, and the funniest, most important thing to hit our screens all decade
Nathan Barley - like this more in retrospect with each passing year - it's wormed its way in and stayed there, the mark of any successful comedy - and its thrust remains dismally relevant to London's culture - but there's also a buoyant and playful streak of humanity lurking just beneath
(Phoenix Nights is my #3 - what a blast)

there follows a large gap

Green Wing - aw, I was young once. gimme this one. as a character ensemble it's really got its moments, plus it's stupid enough not to take itself too seriously
Black Books - has its moments, will watch when someone's actively showing it to me, occasionally finds the comedic sublime
Peep Show - this was also great when I was younger but no compulsion to see it now. plenty of quotable lines, but the overall vibe is a bit too pathetic and miserable - no desire whatsoever to watch beyond iirc the start of the 4th series
The Office - ditto except not as sublime - more sledgehammer, more pathetic

another big gap

The Mighty Boosh - hmmmmmm.
Extras - hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

See, I read it with David Mitchell's voice saying "you ACTUALLY did it, didn't you? You actually ATE a pizza" sort of thing.

OK, I will concede that it is totally a thing.

ailsa, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 17:19 (fourteen years ago)

It's not a thing, it's not the tone of the voice, it's that eating pizza isn't interesting enough to provoke disbelief. It's the wrong kind of mundane.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 17:20 (fourteen years ago)

People ITT need to give Psychoville more of a chance. Episodes 4 and 5 are exactly what I love about comedy, for completely different reasons. 4 is perhaps the best ever example of a single-shot (okay, they did cheat and made it a two-shot) one-room piece - hilariously effective and well though-out. Episode 5 is pull-out-all-the-stops bonkers horror-comedy. It was the first episode I caught, and by the time midgets were throwing knives at each other with only their minds, I was sold.

Bernard V. O'Hare (dog latin), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 17:25 (fourteen years ago)

xpost - they never actually said "You actually ate a pizza", you know this right?

Bernard V. O'Hare (dog latin), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 17:25 (fourteen years ago)

I find it strange that people now see Peep Show as this way-back thing. Maybe it's younger people saying this, but you are aware that they're still making this show and that it's still as good, if not better than the first three series, right? The tawdry season 4 really alienated its audience it seems.

Bernard V. O'Hare (dog latin), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 17:27 (fourteen years ago)

Wrong kind of mundanity in the example, yes, but it's absolutely a recognisable character trait nonetheless (possibly overused if it's a thing that both characters do). It's totally not THE thing though.

ailsa, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 17:33 (fourteen years ago)

i just picked a random one, I'm sure they never said "ate a pizza", it was more 'substitute anything here'

"You picked up the rice where a wedding has been, You actually picked up the rice where a wedding has been" e.g.

Gonna have to disagree on that one. It has settled into a sort of amiable middle-age but it's a long way from the heights of the early seasons.

Number None, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 18:03 (fourteen years ago)

it's inevitably more predictable -- dunno if it's less funny (because i gave up a year or two ago). my impression is that (as matt says) they haven't brought enough new stuff into it. they need more megastar guests, like in 'friends'.

read before patoing (history mayne), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 18:12 (fourteen years ago)

Probably not as good as series 1-3, but still essential viewing IMO. I don't really see how anyone who ever liked it could watch an episode now and not enjoy it at all.

Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 18:26 (fourteen years ago)

I'm re-watching PS first couple of series and it's actually changed a little bit, grown up with us or something - I've always thought of s1 & 2 as "classic" but there's a couple of weird things like flashbacks and joke reveals and Jeremy actually has vaguely semi-informed opinions on things even though in later episodes he can't even read a book.
I do think of the series with the dog eating as the worst one but I think it's just because of that terrible bit. IIRC the rest of that series was pretty spot-on. I could be wrong though.

Point upthread about Dan Ashcroft being unlikeable - true, but as the series goes on, his hypocrisy and capitulation to the machine he claims to oppose was brought out really well. Indeed, nobody really comes off all that well in the series, even Dan's sister, who is set up as the nice, sane and talented one, but tolerates all the bullshit in order to get ahead. Perhaps that's all she can do. Jonathan Yeah? was a really interesting character too, particularly the darks hints that he was well aware of how idiotic the whole Sugar Ape enterprise was, but is only too happy to milk the cash cow. Barley wasn't entirely successful, but I thought the way it developed the characters was really well done, especially considering how most sitcoms establish who their characters are from the get go.

Count Palmiro Vicarion (Stew), Wednesday, 26 January 2011 12:43 (fourteen years ago)

I'd agree with most of that - particularly that Claire Ashcroft is revealed to be as much of a self-interested chancer as everyone else in due course.
