Anyone here watch this show? The first season is now
running here in Finland and it must the funniest show I've
_ever_ seen.

Have they done more than 2 seasons? They're both out on dvd
now, aren't they?

BTW you can get the shows with eMule...I just don't want to
spoil the winter season by watching all the fun stuff in the
summer ; )

Instead I've been downloading the Star Trek Enterprise shows
- almost seen all of season 2. They are quite ok actually, I
had my doubts in the beginning.

Hmm... I don't want to spoil the winter season either:)

Man it's amazing how they've managed to make David Brent's
character into such a pathetic wanker!

Just so you know, the second season is really good, better
than the first one if thats possible.

In a way I hope they dont make another series as I'd hate to
see them run out of ideas as has happened with other good
shows like The League of Gentlemen. Best to quit while they
are ahead, as they did with Faulty Towers.

I've only ever watched a few episodes, I mean it's alright
but I don't see why everyone went so mad over it. Maybe
because I work with cunts like that every day, instead of
seeing it as an on the money satirical comedy it makes me
want to smash things.

the painfulness is what makes it popular.

But I don't really find it painful, more irritating. I can
appreciate it I guess but never fully enjoy it, but I've
usually been like that with things designed to make you
squirm.

qrter is quite right... the show IS painful. Even though the
characters are total morons, people can relate to them.
Occasionally we act in a similar way as they do and the
realisation can be quite frightening.

It's fighteningly realistic. the other frightening thing is
that Ricky Jervaise is like that in real life. A fucking
twat! :)

I'm not watching them.
I'm gonna stay in and have a big.... Wank!
