anyone watch the double bill last night of morris/linehan's new creation.
I thought it was so-so, Chris Morris was superb, but overall kinda predictable,

It was OK. Chris Morris was the only real highlight, especially the "war on stress" part. If the characters settle down a bit I think it could be a decent show. You an definitely see flashes of Dougle from FT in the dialog of both the IT guys.

I saw the first one online from the channel 4 website, and was horrified at the crapness of it. The jokes were awful and the characters really obvious. But then I flicked it on last night, and smiled at some of the bits - I hope that maybe the first episode was just a dud. Its produced by the Office producer so surely it must have somehting.
Chris Morris is great. That role was made for him surely!1

its got that "innocent" kind of vibe which is refreshing, but its hardly split-your-sides material in same way father ted was. i liked morris's team stuff, made me smile

Yes the woman is lame, trying to be the Maggie from Extras and failing.

can't fuckin believe it! written buy the father ted crew, produced by the Office team, starring Chris Morris ffs! This should be the funniest thing ever.
But it is so so so very bad (as in crap).

I think you guys hate it so much because it is a bit too close to the bone. I just thought of you guys all the time when i saw that spekky black guy. Overall I thought it was originally brilliant and chris morris's cameos showed genius.

I think you say you love it so much because all the other guys say they hate it so much.

i downloaded the first episode on the channel4 website before it was aired on tv, and i thought it was utter shit (one thing made me slightly, slightly slightly, chuckle).
So i was a bit sad, since it had so much going for it, then earlier today my mum was talking about it to my brother, i said 'it's shit' .. but she carried on explaining to him some random bits, i listened in and to my suprisement i realised the versions were very different!
What she explained sounded pretty funny, and way better than what i had seen. (perhaps they aired episodes 1 and 2 ?) Either way, i watched the first episode and it was shit, perhaps its going to improve!.. i hope so.
