Outnumbered - Series 1 Page 5

OK, let's get a form of perspective here. Two different comedies but how does 'Outnumbered' stand up against 'Benidorm' as a first series?

Well I only watched 'Outnumbered' and I still think 'Benidorm' was better.

Outnumbered outnumbers Benidorm, by far.

Was it a Mac joke?

A Mac is a PC. Just not a Windows-powered one.

f**k off!

I liked it. I thought it was funny and very natural which came with the improv. The bit when the girl and the mom were talking about what pets they wanted I thought was funny and the kids could actually act which is amazing. Someone said it earlier (can't remember who) but when kids aren't acting and just saying stuff naturally it works a whole lot better. I'm looking forwards to tonights

Didn't it feel like they were being fed the lines? Just given a little nudge sometimes?

Well - it looks like we're split on this one.

I thought it was awful. There's much better humour on TV - IT Crowd, Gavin & Stacey, The Visit.

It was like Royle Family or The Office but without any humour

I'll give it another go tonight. I think I might enjoy it better now I know what to expect. I'm hoping when the curly kid asks for his fiver again that Dad will give the brat a damn good smack. That would be great TV!

There's a Gervais fixation on this site that seems to permeate every thread...

And weirdly, it's not even coming from me.

The haters love him talking about him more than I do.
