it dreadful rubbish . i like how do you want me and father ted and green wing and bill bailey standup act but i file this with hippy and planet of the ape ( the re imagine ) under great pedigree and go badly wrong . my guess be that it appeal to the same people who like withnail and i. it overwritten but to little end and a luvvie ish air pervades it and bernard black be simply a less camp withnail . and i think it be self indulgent even before dylan moran become the writer . but the set up raidiates such comic potential that for the first 2 episiodes i do not even notice that it wasn not in the slight bit chortle worthy . the thing they be say or do should be funny but somehow they do not manage to register a more than mildly amuse or i can see how someone write this down might have think that this would be funny . what i be try to say be that the situation or remark be mildly humorous and yet too mundane or gentle or self consciously surreal to be worth create for and depict in a sitcom . life be too short . avoid .
