Wel maybe I was a bit extreme. It just wasn't as good as it
could've been. Considering who it was starring it was really
bad. Actually, the more I think about it the worse it gets.
Fuck it, I wasn't harsh enough. It was pure unmitigated
shit. I've lost respect for Frost and Eldon because of this.
Seriously.

Liking the avatar by the way.

Who has written it? Is it on UK Nova? Why can't I just go
and find out for myself?

It is, it's much more... satisfying to get a response from a
Zilty chum than some cold, impersonal search result on
Google. I don't know anyone "on" Google.

saw the first episode, utter cack, usually i give things
more time but this programme really was the pits, paper thin
characters, wooden characters... im not even sure if i liked
eldon in it... my only excitement was when johnson from peep
show appeared, and thats just cos its johnson...

going for the naturalistic office style "comedy" does not
work when you are doing a sci-fi sitcom, muppets, fucking
shit

Channel 4 still says coming soon in the ads. I'm waiting for
it too.

Chris Morris on board acting I hear. Awesome. Also got on of
the Sugarape cocks in there. Weapon.

Ok, Mrs d_b and I sat down to watch the first one, freshly
downloaded from UK Nova.

We managed to watch exactly half before saying "No more" and
switching it off.

The tragedy is, Frost being in Spaced, and Eldon as well in
one episode, which took sci fi themes but put a great comedy
twist on them (whilst being set in a converted flat in north
London). This is just taking the piss out of Star Trek but
with the usual "We're British and so we're a bit shit at it"
apology. Oh fuck off back to 1982 which was the sell by date
on this type of sitcom.

The trailer hasn't piqued me interest mate. It really looks
(can't think of any other word) generic to me. Just your
usual slightly over the top acting for comedy reasons. This
is a shame.

i still visit verbwhores too much and am probably slightly

come to think of it, its like the xltronic of comedy. but
infinitely more on-topic.

Fucking gay to the extreme. A program made by geeks, about
geek shit, for geeks, and the geeks didn't even like it.
Plus one of the women in it is waaaay too ugly to be on TV.

I know, but couldn't have they used a normal woman with a

alien at first.
