I thought it would it be aimed at teens and while it probably is, there's enough depth and humour to keep me not only watching but really enjoying. Binged season 1 over the weekend and started season 2 last night. It's quite rare for a show like that to have so many likeable characters. I see quite a lot of Otis in myself at that age except for the fact I was superb at fingering from the get-go. Season 3 is better than 2 in my opinion so stick with it even if you think the quality drops a bit in S2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) I enjoyed it but season 3 veered into caracature for me, with Otis a little bit then it got very soap-like with the occasional "but wait, more drama!" in some of the storylines which were infuriating. Particularly Spoiler Jean opening the paternity test letter and going "oh for goodness sake" etc I mean **** off. edit: also the skit that sees the new headteacher resign that whole storyline was ridiculous, where she was locking the trans kid in etc. Thought that was so ludicrous I switched off. However, there were many elements that were good tbf, and if there's a season 4 I very much look forward to Spoiler Adam and his Dad having a big old heart-to-heart Also, the actors playing Adam and his dad ... how the **** are they not related Edited October 25, 2021 by Rodders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 "Time Gentlemen Please" on Youtube. haven't seen it since it was on b Sky B 21 years ago. Still funny but some of it wouldn't make the cut in these times. Some great catchphrases..."Never confused!"..."back off Brussels"..."a fruit based drink for the lady"..."Look at these hands! DON'T look at these hands!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted October 25, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) I previously had no concept of who she was but the longer this series of Taskmaster goes on, the more impure thoughts I have about Morgana Robinson.

villa4europe Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Really enjoyed squid game right up until the last 30 mins, didn't work for me if I'm honest Spoiler Saw it coming too, there was something fishy about him, him being player 001, the enjoyment he got from game one, him getting well out of the way when they were all killing each other, something that he said about his son that didn't actually come true (I thought his son would be the front man) the tug of war stuff, not seeing him die Didn't spoil it or anything, it's a great show, just took that little bit of shine off 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizzzle Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Watched the 1st episode of Stephen Merchants comedy drama The Outlaws last night and I really enjoyed it and some parts really made me laugh out loud but at the same time some of the woke PC jokes felt a bit forced and unfunny but it is the BBC I suppose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Silvers Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Seinfeld, never seen but always fancied as the clips I've seen of Cosmo are right up my street but I really find Jerry completely unfunny. It's up on Netflix now so will give it a bash, found ep1 unfunny apart from Cosmo wanting some meat to put on his bread. Is there any hope for me, crack on or dump it?
